    I tell myself that but i always feel myself compelled to watch.
    That said i stopped putting bets because i do not trust judges.

    I did have a bet with a friend of mine who is a hardcore Marquez fan and even though i like JMM more than Pac i bet him that Pac would win by stoppage (i bought into the hype) even money on JMM just winning no matter how.

    Long story short i endedup paying him the money cause theres no way i could argue that Pac won that.

    Ultimately i just feel bad for the fighters, in case of Marquez you could just see his beart breaking.
    Chisora was also just tragic, he put in so much effort.

    On a funny side note though i thought Sturm easily did enough to win just to get a draw? who knew that was possible.

    This is what happens when Robbery Helenius goes into the ring with a guy, who isn't semi-retired 35 year old "ex-champion" who weights more than 260 lbs.

    Horrible decision. As i said before i feel bad for Chisora.

    I hear ya, robberies can make following the sport at times frustrating. Always been part of boxing though. As for quitting the sport altogether due to one robbery..

    You know...you don't have to have a favorite boxer from your own country. You can just follow and enjoy it as the international sport that it is.

    These threads are so boring. About 9 in 10 of the threadstarters don't actually stick to it. It's such a yawn-inducing attention grab.

    Helenius celebrated coz he absolutely KNEW he will get the decision, no matter what happens. Its ****ing sad. i agree with you 100%. these robberies destroy boxing.

    Every single person in the arena knew Helenius would get the decision. Thats how transparent and open these robberies have become
