    Will this ever change? How in the world did the judges have this fight 115-113?

    Even the biggest Canelo supporters can admit the cards are out of hand:
    118-110 GGG
    117-111 Lara
    114-114 Mayweather
    49-46 Khan before the KO
    119-109 Cotto
    118-109 Trout

    I have myself to blame but I am so irritated with this garbage. Bivol had to DOMINATE Canelo to squeak out a narrow win. I don’t understand how any self-respecting boxing fan can ignore this and excuse it by saying “scoring is subjective.” Yeah and every single time the “subjective” side always favors Canelo.

    I think his clean hard punching resonates well with the judges, I understand why he gets the benefit of the doubt in close fights but agree that those cards are egregious

    Maybe, but it’s getting out of hand. What's the point of fighting when you essentially have to win 9 rounds to win the fight?

    Its a disgrace. Had he won the last round the fight would have been a draw can you imagine that.
