    Think back to when there were Italian or Italian based champions. If you didn't knock your opponent out, you lost on points or faced a DQ.

    Only in America do you get three judges from the same region for world championship fights

    Probably America.

    In Britain you often see a SD when a guy deserves a UD (Bradley vs Witter classic case).

    Germany is worse still, but by far the worst is Italy.

    Colin Lynes schooled Branco for the EBU 140lb title and scored a KD - yet lost SD!

    Clearly USA, think how one Judge robbed Calzaghe against Hopkins.

    Then theres Cortez which doesn't help.
