    According to this writer. It's amazing how biased some people are.

    Pretty Risky Proves To Be Pretty Lousy
    Judges Scores Aren’t Pretty Bad…They Are Real Bad

    Floyd Mayweather(32-0,24 KO’s) used a combination of back pedaling and smoke and mirrors that was enough to fool 3 very inept judges to thinking he easily beat Carlos Baldomir(43-10-6,13 KO’s) for the WBC 147 pound Title.

    The fight was a total bore, the crowd booed early and often and it wasn’t because Baldy wasn’t doing his job, the crowd was booing because Floyd turned this into the biggest snoozefest ever.

    How anyone can give every round to a guy who is fighting off his back foot and in complete retreat over the 12 round distance is beyond me.

    How anyone can call Floyd the best Pound 4 Pound fighter on the planet is another huge mystery….he is not even close.

    For the record my scorecard read 116-113 in favor of Baldomir who was humiliated not by Floyd, but by 3 very lousy judges.

    What a complete joke!

    It is a skilled piece of writing as he has fooled people into thinking it was serious.

    This guy just wanted to be remembered for something - so he wrote the craziest thing he could think of. Looks like he successed.

    I can't believe 26% of voters thought that Margarito had the best chance of beating Mayweather.

    There is no doubt that Floyd earned no new fans that night, but despite being on the run all night, he did what he had to do to win. I scored it 11-0 for Floyd with one round even. Floyd had the tools to stop Baldomir. He had the energy and the skills but not the inclination. SRL, Roberto Duran, hell, even Oscar, would have stopped this guy, as Floyd probably should have, but that was Floyd's choice. He won overwhelmingly by the method of his choice, and that's what the record shows.

    The article writer is COMPLETELY out to lunch.
