    I've heard Roy jones say many times.

    "it doesn't matter if you are coming forward and being the aggressor when you are walking into Punches" After Harold gives a round to the Aggressor. Harold doesn't score counter punches ever, it's just who goes forward.

    +10! Lederman must score by sense of smell, he obviously can’t see.

    Say what you want but Harold is a better judge than Adelaide Byrd, Dave Morretti & the other Vegas mafia
    But maybe he is also an honest judge who cannot ne bought

    Kellerman & Kreigal are two clowns who know nothing about the sport

    He was correct on kovalev fight. Occasionally he veers off. Honestly I think his scoring in Pac-Bradley 1 is a huge reason people thought it was a Pac blowout, which it wasnt.

    Still would imply he ever actually was one.

    Walk forward, win Letterman's card. You could walk into traffic and he'd give you the round.

    Letterman can't score a fight to save his life. I almost never agree with his cards

    All I know is that people saying yes because of how he scored the Kovalev fight were laughing and cracking jokes about his score for Bivol's fight. Basically he's a good judge when he scores for the fighter you like, but laughable & senile when his scores don't line up with yours.

    He's terrible and loves the annoying sound of his own voice.
    Why don't they recruit ex fighters who have a life time sense and feel of the sport.

    He’s one of the reasons people think moving forward is “ring generalship”. He’s made a whole generation of so called boxing fans ******ed thinking they know how to score a fight. The dude needs to retire.
