Canelo vs Trout - Was it a robbery ?

Not robbery but very close fight, just checked my phone and i scored it 115 112 for Trout, but one judge had it i think 118 111 or something that wide he got the money to score it like that for sure!

 

i clearly had it to Canelo. it wasn't close at all.

Trout was flicking with his punches. you can't say that they were genuine scoring shots because they weren't.

Canelo, although having a low out-put, definitely scored the cleaner, harder blows than Trout did. and more of them.

i didn't find it hard to score in any way. it was pretty clear cut for me.

 

i think i had it something like 117-111 to Canelo.

 

No way it was that wide, wonder if anyone else had that(apart from you and paid judge)

 

i consider Stanley Christodoulou to be the best in the business whether he's judging or reffing. no way he'd take money or show favoritism to any fighter/promoter.

did you really score those pitty pat nothing shots from Trout? they were pathetic.

 

Agreed.

 

I didn't watch the fight live, but i remember i tried to score it, and one can argue it was even going to the 12th round, which Trout won, and in which Canelo barely did anything because he knew thanks to open scoring he had this in the bag. Open scoring definitely ruined this fight.

 

how was it even? did you have an even round?

 

I'm not making it up, there were a few rounds where Canelo waited too much and you can expect judges to score Trout's flicking jabs.

 

It was a close fight, but Golden Boy judges had the scorecards filled out before the fight.

There was no way Trout could have won without a KO. He would win 8 rounds and still lose the fight. Unless it's clear, Trout was not going to get any round from the judges.

 

what i mean is you had to have scored an even round somewhere in the fight to have the fight even going into the twelfth round because of the KD. you scorecard had to be 6 rounds to 4 with one even for trout to have an even scorecard going into the 12th.

 

Even Trout admitted he lostatsch

/thread!

 

my mistake, after reading what i wrote, i realize you could have an even fight going into the 12th without even rounds if there is a KD. it's when there isn't a KD that you can't have an even fight after 11 with no KD or even rounds.

 

Not a robbery, it could have went either way. Terrible fight though that did nothing for either man.

 

What about if it's 7 rounds by a mile with no possible other way of seeing it to one guy, and the other guy wins 5, but they give it to the 5 round guy. Bearing in mind there are no knockdowns or points deductions. Would you not class that as a robbery? :think
