    Yeah, it's absolutely ridiculous and so typical. The outrage would be deafening from many across the pond if their boys where having to fight on a deck that stacked in their opponent's countries, let alone if they kept getting robbed as fraction as much whilst doing so

    “Me and my team are doing the best to make sure that there's fair judging, neutral judges" -- Devin Haney on the judges for his fights in Australia against Kambosos

    Many wanted to pin a medal of honor on Haney for travelling to Australia but all the officials for both fights came from neutral countries

    I got no problems with Americans. I generally like them as much as I like my fellow Brits. I've just got a problem with this BS because it's incredibly unfair.

    Just like American fighters do in Vegas. They also use the American refs and judges to their advantage as we have often observed over the years.

    He shouldn’t be on an undercard. He should be the main event as he would be by far the best boxer on the card.

    The 119-109 judge was a woman- forgot her name- who Lomas team wanted replaced. Eligas said she screwed Loma because they tried to replace her. The draw with GRJ was also a woman judge…..

    Yeah I knew that. To be fair, we see this with male judges over there a lot too

    Who cares? Joshua is clearly the bigger star, or at least arguably so. And honestly, it just depends on the location.

    I was there at the fight and it was electrifying! Honestly, this was his best fight. What a show he put on. The versatility in this guy is crazy. He fought Fulton, Tapales, and Nery so differently. His compact punches are so good.

    It was so cool being at my first boxing match and it happened to be the first boxing match at the dome since Tyson/Douglass. The intros were cool too. 50k people. What i didn't understand was that many ushers were walking around with no filming allowed, but i saw some youtube vids of people taping the fights. They must have been in the nose bleed section. Also the guy sitting next to me recorded the 6th rd too. I was scared of getting kicked out, thus didn't record, but i did enjoy the moment.
