Let’s list a few shockers Crocker V Donovan 2 was the wrong decision Belotti should have won Saturday anymore
Lewis vs Holyfield one, I know it wasnt a matchroom show but only a scandalous scorecard as heinous as this one could be the work of a 20 year old Eddie Hearn!
I predict Kieran Conways going to get robbed tomorrow, if this happens I'll come back and add it to this thread.
Fury v McDermott 1 is the worst ever seen but this was a Frank Maloney Promotion at the York Hall scored by Terry O'Connor. For Matchroom home fighters, the list is endless. Katie Taylor v Delfine Persoon 1 was a Matchroom Classic Card.
Yes remember that one well. Holyfield won 1 round, was dominated throughout, and managed to get a draw. One of the judges even gave him the fight 115-113 and another had it 115-115. It legitimately is one of the worst and most corrupt score cards in boxing history.
Crolla got a gift in his farewell last fight didn’t he? Or am I imagining that? Benn v Peynaud and a few early Campbell Hatton fights come to mind as well. But it happens with everyone, not just Matchroom. I’d argue PBC have been worse over the last decade, certainly in bigger fights.
'Matchroom scorecards' So cringe lol, there is robberies on every promoter's shows, Catteral Taylor 1, one of the worst of all time, nothing to do with Matchroom.
I know it never went to points and Carl won by that controversial stoppage, but how Terry O’Connor and Dave Parris had Froch up 76–75 at the time of the stoppage is beyond me. Groves had dropped him heavy in the first and was boxing his head off for most of the fight. Even if Froch had a late rally, there’s no way he was ahead on two cards. Hoping we don’t get another one like that tonight with Conway v Liddard — it’s simmering up to be a proper domestic classic, unless one overperforms and the other underperforms.
