    Haskins pumped badly with 2 knockdowns and lost 9 clear rounds.

    The US judge scored it 118-108 Haskins

    Fook me - this fooker has exceeded Terry O'Connor scoring the Fury v John McDonut 1 fight

    Obviously marked the wrong side of the card as its impossible to get to 118 with the knockdowns. Surprised they didnt get it cleared up before the announcement.

    ****ing lmao I just saw the fight on YouTube now without knowing the winner. I legitimately Lol'd hysterically when I heard "split decision". As others have said he surely thought Burnett was Haskins!

    Yeah its pretty obvious he marked wrong side, with knockdowns Haskins was looking at 116 if he won every round. Frightening not sorted out though before announcements

    It's called incompetence!
    How hard is it to score the winner of a round when there cards read red corner blue corner

    Yes there is no excuse Billy even if he gets the fighters the wrong way round.

    Judge Clark Sammartino is the name of the judge.

    There has been no correction of the result so far so it does look like he did think Haskins won that fight by 10 rounds.

    Three blind mice would produce a more sensible card than this twat.

    Equally how hard is it to sort out the error before announcing the result?
    It wasnt just the judge that was incompetent.

    I seen one of the officials look in disbelief at another official but I sums up judging these days.
    Million percent those scores were just a mistake but how many times does one judge give a fighter the fight by four rounds and another judge gives the other fighter by the same margin, simply not good enough, brown envelope brigade

    Makes you wonder how often this has happened in close fights which have been SDs. The state of judging in boxing is abysmal.

    No big deal , judge just marked the boxes wrong. Scores have come out and he had it 10 - 8 Haskins in both the 6th and 11th.

    Great win for Burnett. I thought he looked great.

    'No Big Deal' - tell that to punters where Bookmakers rules are that they pay out on the result announced in the ring after the fight.

    If it is true he had the fighters the wrong way round, then maybe it is lucky that he is not a Surgeon as someone having an operation to get a left leg amputated may come out without two arms and a right leg.
