    The State Commissions really need to start holding judges and referees accountable for terrible performances...!!!

    Gotta feel sorry for Shafikov. Those who didn't watch the fight will look at the scores and think he got his buttocks whooped.

    Yeah I know. Kostya is one of my favourite fighters of all time. I doubt there are many bigger fans of his on here than me.

    It's entirely possible Hoyle scored on a different standard than we did. So let's not condemn him so fast. He could be looking for different things.

    I had Rances the clear winner. He won it for sure.

    I of course can't see it, but he's a professional and we should accept his judgement.

    Let's hear an explanation from that man. His scoring requirements may differ from ours. He is a professional.

    Yeah, both of his losses were pretty competitive, and I think he'd be more than capable of winning a title against other titleholders.

    So not clean punching generalship effective aggression and defense?

    Did he score by height cause then 119-109 makes sense

    He scored Oquendo-Gonzalez 98-90, and Wade-Soliman 97-92. Dude's turned in some lousy scorecards recently.

    That should be a requirement for scoring, I would award some points to the guy for being the more genetically superior fighter (Being taller). :happy

    But in all seriousness, 116-112 was fair. 119-109, I just can't see. That's why I want to hear an explanation from that man. It just doesn't make sense to me. But he must have his reasons. He's a professional so I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. He's been a great great judge in the past.

    He is a professional.

    The only reasonable explanation I can think of is "Look! they have kidnapped my daughter ok?"
