Get this: Benoit Roussel judged Funeka draw AND loss vs Campbell

Terrible judging. I feel bad for Funeka. I admire him for not going ballistic in his post fight comments like PM did. Are we ever going to get rid of bad judges? Sadly, I think not.

 

This guy should be shot.

 

Lederman had Funeka winning 9 to 3. 2 judges were from Canada eh. Judges were in Guzman's pockets.

 

Didn't knew that...

Roussel should go back to judging school.

But I won't say it's a robbery, more like it was very bad judging.
Pasquale had it 116-112... when you think about it, find two rounds that Funeka won, but not clearly won... maybe the 3rd and 6th... and give them to Guzman and you get 114-114.

Not saying that was the right score (Funeka won that fight) just trying to understand how those two guys could come up with that score.

 

No he wouldnt have. It would have been a split draw.

 

You know, i think he was just in complete shock that he didn't have the common sense to react and get angry.

 

Its really poor judging. I had it two sure rounds for Guzman and two semi close rds. So if you give those to Guzman, like pasquale did then u end up with 116-112. Personally, I had the exact same card as lederman and I score mine well before his comes onto the screen. Mine was 117-111. I have guzman one close rd and funeka the other.

Really, these two canadian judges ****ed up this card. I cant imagine why they would be biased so maybe ringside they really thought Guzman was landing the harder shots because he looped them so much. Im just looking to try and justify their scores. It is not easy.

 

Good find! This guy should have not been part of this fight considering he was involved in the Campbell fight. I thought Funeka could have easily gotten a draw or close decision over Campbell. I hope Funeka gets another title fight soon. I imagine he can fight for the vacant title again because he'll still surely be ranked #1 by the IBF. He's a good fighter. Probably should have 2 wins. One over Campbell, and one over Guzman. Got to feel very bad for him!

 

Good question. They should have been all over this if they were not!

 

Stop it. :verysad

 

oops, I thought you were referring to the scoring of the Campbell fight, whereas if Roussel scored it for Funeka it would have been a draw.


Nate never once brought up the Pac thing. A reporter asked him about comments that John David made, and thats when Nate talked about it. We all know that he can never get a fight with Pac, so talking about him is meaningless.

Also, we will be making a major announcement about Nate in the next week or so. Good stuff. Stay tuned.
