    He was watching the dollar signs in his eyes. It was obvious corruption, imo.

    Keith was backed up, knocked down, rocked repeatedly, busted up, and outworked. Genuinely dont see how anyone could score that for him.

    And btw. A fight being competitive, is not a gateway to 'could have gone either way.' A fight can be close, competitive, but clear. This was one of those fights, imo.

    Very corrupt. It's all about the bookmakers

    They don't have to pay out now for a UD

    Interesting that the only round he gave to Thurman that at least one of the other two judges also didn’t score for Thurman was the 12th. His scorecard doesn’t seem that bad. It was a close fight. It wasn’t like the 118-110 GGG Canelo score.

    I wonder if scoring would be more consistent if judged through the video feed rather than ringside.

    What does him having a new account got to do with anything?

    Anyway wasn't a close fight to me, Pac dominated.

    He probably sees the pot kettle thing when he was a new alt account.

    everyone here claims pinoy prodigy is the best judge ever and I was laughed at when I disagreed and he said Thurman won too.

    Problem with that is TV is two dimensional and can be deceptive with regards to punches appearing to land/miss when they haven't. Also the judges sit apart from one another on three side of the ring and, therefore, get different views of the action. I think this often explains why judges call fights differently as they literally have a different view of the action from the others but *usually* at least two of the three get it right or, at least, are in agreement. TV has one feed and the director decides when to cut from one camera to another.

    A fourth 'video judge' might be a good added layer though, as long as there is no commentary or punch stats for him/her to see during the bout.

    I've always thought that Pinoy was a terrible scorer. But he's better at picking winners than me, so it's not like he doesn't know anything.

    It's terrible, but yeah, you can find those rounds to give to Thurman if you're watching it from a certain angle.

    Yeah anything from 155-112 PAC to 114-113 Thurman is reasonable it was a close fight

    Personally had it 114-113 for manny
