I don't understand this Paranoia of Usyk being robbed vs Joshua.

    Joshua has never had a lucky decision as a pro boxer. Never. So your worries are purely based on your own imagination, not based of fact or previous evidence. He's not canelo or Wilder.

    His only decision wins are Ruiz and Parker, both of which we clearly dominated to get his UD.

    Joshua fought Usyk in the UK. Usyk was clearly the victor, but it wasn't a 1 sided shut down like a lot of people thought it had to be for Usyk to get the decision in the UK.

    I scored the fight 9-3 Usyk, 2/3 judges scored it 8-4, which is good enough. Usyk clearly won, and the judges thought he clearly won. There was one b/s 7-5 card, but never mind. The judges have a different view than we do watching it on TV.

    Usyk wasn't robbed in the UK pre-war. Now Usyk is from a country that is being respected by others as a victim of war crimes, Usyk is war more respected now than he was this time last year, and the fight is on neutral ground.

    Could Usyk be robbed? Sure. But it's all in your imagination at this point. You could say the same about any time a bigger cash cow fighter would be more profitable as a winner, and this is no exception, but like I said, it's all assumptions and worry in your mind.

    Usyk IS a marketable fighter. He's a respected fighter, he's the champ and also a hero to a war torn country. That is very marketable!

    He's less likely to get robbed now than before IMO.

    Your naive as hell sometimes

    Howard Foster was well on his way to giving that fight to AJ but AJ got beat up so bad even he couldn't justify it

    But my word he tried


    And as you know, theres always the potential Fury fight which so many people get rich off if it happens

    The threat is real, not imaginary

    This is yet another post by you which essentially boils down to your desire for Joshua to get ‘credit’ if he wins.

    It’s a rehash of your other silly post decreeing that people can’t use the war as an “excuse” of Usyk loses.

    A 9/3 (by your own scoring) on away ground is a very one sided score.

    The threat is based on no evidence, just your assumption.

    He ain't Canelo or Ward, but he is still being favorite by the judges big time. Povetkin, and Klitschko comes to mind, as this scorecards were sh***. Usyk scorecards were sh*** too, but he got beaten badly. Not a single judge got it right. Even the english guess has it 9-3.
    And i pretty much expect sh*** scorecards again if it gets into judges hands.

    This is Boxing, expecting the Judge's to do what they do best on a consistent basis without any recoil is expected regardless of the two opponents in the ring,

    The place where promoter's buddy up & pay for the Judge's dinners while conversating before their fighter's do battle, along with them paying their hotel fee's & possibly much more giving them that incentive to sway the way they would like,

    By doing so they will also be insuring they're chances for more future compensation.

    Vegan Beast is having another hissy fit over people’s perception on Joshua, way too typical.

    And Joshua didn’t dominate Parker, he clearly beat him in a close and competitive fight. If anything, the scores were way too wide which goes against the point of the thread.

    After the scorecards from the Klitschko fight were released it was clear that a an attempt to rob Klitschko, had he made the final bell, was in place.

    How? Joshua was clearly winning the earlier rounds, Wlad started winning the late rounds.

    All cards had it close before the final round, and one card had wlad up.

    Wlad was not getting robbed, it was a close fight.

    Ignoring yet another weird attempt to garner credit for Saint Anthony, Matchroom are consistently on the rob. Look at the Katie Taylor cards. Or Chisora against Parker 2. Even when the result is right they make it comically close. To get the nod Usyk needs to beat him even better this time round or KO him.

    Sounds like alot of people preemptively making excuses in case the fight doesn't go the way they hope it does.

    One card Wlad was winning 95-94, Joshua 95-93 and 96-93.

    Neither side dominated, could have gone either.

    I had 8-4. Scorecard were good and you're right he has never benefited from homer judges unlike a lot of HWs.
