Corruption in Boxing! Lopez over Salido on two Scorecards!!?????

In fairness, a few of the rounds were close enough that they could be called in favor of Juanma, and on my card (to my surprise) I had the fight being pretty close on my card going into what turned out to be the final round.

 

absolutely pathetic scorecards, these judges should be suspended

 

Glad he lost.

 

Juanma knew he was leading on the scorecards, he said it during his dulisional rant.

 

Beibut somehow won against Campillo in the 2nd bout and I had it like 11-1 rounds for Campillo...

 

I had it 89-82 on mine. There is no doubt that hometown cooking was in effect, but who is really surprised? This is Boxing, the sport where you should EXPECT a corrupt outcome.

 

How this fight took place In PR again is beyond me. Salido was the champion. He should have demanded a fight on his turf.

 

Confucious say, fairness and objectivity only exist when there is little at stake.

Anytime the stakes are raised, the façade of fairness is abandoned. Self interest overrules all.

The best you can hope for is that both sides are equally corrupt and powerful, and they somewhat cancel each other out.

That's not just boxing, that's life.

 

Have not watched the fight yet but breaking down your post...

How an earth can you have a fight that is most definately fight of the year thus far but also cry potential robbery when one fighter is ahead on the cards by what 1 round i think, very contridicting, nothing wrong their, i think your just to eager to cry robbery at the earliest opportunitiy.

 

88-84 Salido at stoppage

 

89 - 83 to salido at the time of stoppage , but i agree the judging should definetly be looked into ....

 

In baseball they go to extra innings
In basketball overtime
Football sudden death
Soccer penalties
BOXING SHOULD BE FIGHT TO THE DEATH!!!

 

Fortunately Salido whooped that ass. I also had him losing only 2 rounds, and frankly, since he dominated the KD round and stunned Lopez before getting hit by that single counter, you could argue it was only 10-9 for Lopez.
