    Paul Williams vs Lara was a travesty. I think one judge had it 8-4 for Williams.

    No, I had it Canelo 118-112. And I like GGG FAR better than Canelo and anything having to do with DLH.

    That's hilarious if true. Sounds like a bad Weekend at Bernie's sequel.

    I remember being shocked when I heard 114-114, but that didn’t alter the outcome of the fight.

    When that first card was announced last September, everyone knew instantaneously the fix was in. I wasn’t shocked, I was flabbergasted a fight could be scored so egregiously corrupt. I was surprised G walked out of there with the tie after hearing that first scorecard.


    I’m sure there are bigger robberies in the annals of boxing, but this was the biggest fight in years and one of the biggest of this millennia.

    All things considered, this was one of the worst scorecards in the history of the sport.


    Adelaide Byrd should resign forever and donate her bribe money to a thoughtful charity.

    No. In 2008, Doug Tucker scored Cristian Mijares-Jose Navarro 120-108 for Navarro in a fight won decisively by Mijares. Most baffling scorecard I've ever heard watching boxing live.

    118-110 is outrageous. One of the judges had Paul Williams beating Sergio Martinez 119-110 in their first fight. Another insane card.

    Nearly every round in that fight could have went either way. It wad nonstop action. It was definitely odd to just favor one fighter round after round but not on the level of Canelo's gift

    Wasn't one of the top five that year. Murata vs N'Jikam Murata won every round but lost a split decision with one judge giving it 111-116 for N'Jikam. Canelo should have lost wide to GGG but he at least won three or four rounds. 2017 was the worst year for scorecards I've ever seen (Pacquiao/Horn, Gonzalez/Rungvisai I, Kovalev/Ward I).

    Worse ones in history are Toney vs Tiberi, Lewis vs Holyfield I, Whitaker vs Ramirez I, Pacquiao vs Bradley I, etc. And by the way, Duane Ford who scored Pac vs Brad I for Bradley also scored Oscar vs Mosley 2 for Mosley and just like Adelaide Byrd teaches judges how to score. Haven't seen it but I heard Rios vs Abril was a bad one too. Oh, and if you've ever seen Sergio Martinez vs Kermit Cintron, Martinez knocks Cintron out. Cintron and his corner argue with the ref and convince him to start the fight again. The ref takes a point from Martinez, and it ends in a tie.

    That's disgusting, and, dare I say it, kind of funny. Just the image of it.

    That was awful refereeing. The worst is still Coggi-Gonzalez 1.
