    2008, eh?

    Little did you know back then that she'd still be spinning on GBP schlong 9 years later :eek:

    Needless to say, we in the future completely agree with your sentiments and that some analysts have called for her to be tested for drugs. In my opinion, she's mainlining pure greenbacks :deal: Not to mention Oscar's "special" home-made anti-wrinkle facecream that she scores for every "mission accomplished".

    How did this scamming dumb beotch ever get to judge a fight of this magnitude in the first place? It's a joke. Dumb, corrupt or she just doesn't understand boxing. She has previous - was judge who ruled Hopkins beat Calzage. Get her the hell out of here.

    I think you guys should get over the individual because I think you're missing the truth that she's just a scapegoat for the greater corruption machine that is Vegas. Whether its Byrd or Ross, it doesn't matter if you remove them. Bennett will just replace them with another scapegoat and business will go on.

    Agree. Unfortunately, she and others like her, will be damaging the sport for years into the future.

    My posted pre-fight prediction had GGG winning by KO in the 9th. By the 5th round the fight was progressing as I predicted with GGG wearing down Canelo. In the 7th round I was pretty sure that GGG was going to get the KO in the next couple of rounds.
    When Canelo made it out of the 9th, I didn't expect him to make it out of the 10th. Canelo looked spent.
    Canelo's corner then pleaded with him to have the 3 rounds of his life, and the story of fight should be how Canelo, tired and beaten, dug deep down inside and managed the 3 best rounds of his life while he was exhausted. I already considered Canelo an elite fighter, and those last three rounds just increased his ability in my opinion (I didn't have him sweeping the 3 rounds, but he did very very well).
    Then the scorecards were read, and the 118 for Canelo just followed the well known pattern in so many of Canelo's big fights, that one judge gives Canelo rounds that he simply could not have won.
    Instead of talking about how Canelo dug deeper than many expected he could dig, we have to talk about the ridiculous scoring.
    Canelo losing the fight, but doing so well in the last 3 rounds would have guaranteed I'd pay for the rematch, but now, it simply appears that Canelo simply has to win 1 of 2 judges, because he's guaranteed winning 1 before the fight starts.
    That's not fair to Canelo, and it's not fair to the fans or boxing.

    i posted a thread sharing similar sentiments. canelo definitely would have gotten much more respect and props had he taken a close loss and handled it like a gentleman.

    Canelo isn't the victim here.

    The NSAC should be investigated.

    The fish rots from the head down.

    This wasn't just a bad night from one of the judges.

    Her boxing knowledge is such that she probably has Deontay Wilder at the top of her p4p list.

    LOL

    She was using the online configurator and selecting features for her new Mercedes that she's buying today.

    "Hmm... Think I'll go with the AMG."

    Why has K2 not made an official complaint yet? They're just happy with the rematch cash I assume.
