    Is he allowed to Tweet that sort of stuff while at the fight?

    Don't see why not. He's just an announcer not an official.

    you sound like a showtime exec.:blood



    yes he can because
    A) we don't know if that is officially his account.
    B) its not his job to comment only announce.
    C) there is no money going on.

    ****ing disgusting. I can't believe we're in this day and age and where the fighters are blindly robbed. Seriously, the commissions, the governing bodies, the belts orgs should be able to flip bull**** decisions like that. If I was a Gabriel, I'd ****ing quit. I can't help but feel for Campillo.

    We've got a fighter who's dream was to win a world title and have a better life and yet we're talking about Haye and Chisora bitching at each other more so than this.

    And I'm the one who get's called a casual boxing fan. :patsch

    How many times do we see those who consider themselves "true boxing fans" (possibly the boxing phrase that makes my blood boil the most, because it only comes out when someone disagrees with those ****wits) score fights entirely on workrate?

    It's this sort of amateurism that allows poor decisions. "Oh I scored for the fighter coming forward!"

    Just watched this fight. Cloud got his arse kicked. The only way you can score it 116-110 Cloud is if your critera for scoring is awarding rounds to the fighter who gets punched in the face more.

    Had it 114-112, with Cloud winning 4 rounds

    Thought Cloud would win this, Campillo isn't that good (but he is a top fighter, no doubt).

    Cloud is just really poor, and he doesn't punch anywhere near as hard as they make him out to. Campillo must be at the end of his tether by now, I can't name many active fighters who have been legitimately robbed of victory as many times as he.

    You could score it any where from 10-2 to 8-4 for Campillo. Its impossible to score it any closer unless you're corrupt or a humungous window licker.

    Or Sweet home bama.

    That guy is up there with puertorricane in the 'Is he really that stupid or just trolling' extreme. An exceptionally bad poster if not a troll.

    What bugs me is that the fight wasn't even difficult to score.
