"Know there have been some false rumors swirling, so to be crystal clear. The WBC is scoring the fight. There could be a knockout and there will be one winner. Anyone who says there is no judging or no winner either does not understand the rules or has their own agenda. Unquestionably, 100 percent. DraftKings is the betting partner and is taking bets on the fight in New Jersey, New Hampshire, and Illinois. The only difference is the fight is the gloves are 12 ounces, there are eight rounds and the rounds are two minutes rather than three. That is it." Ryan Kavanaugh is the owner of the Triller app, which is staging the card.

" The World Boxing Council (WBC) will instead have remote celebrity judges who will likely score the fight based on how they feel, rather than the traditional 10-point must system. It won't determine a winner, both guys will be handed specially made WBC belts, and it's all just for entertainment on the night, according to the commissioner. "There's no official judges," Foster said. "The WBC is going to have some guest celebrity judges remotely, not official, not 10-9, nothing like that, no cumulative score, no winner announced. "That's a very entertainment-centered thing. It's about entertainment. It's not about competition."" https://www.insider.com/mike-tyson-... that infuriated,either athlete suffers a cut.
"Outside of the ring, there will be no judges to score the fight, but instead, the World Boxing Council will host Christy Martin, Vinny Pazienza and Chad Dawson viewing remotely to decide the fight result." https://www.dazn.com/en-US/news/box...ntline-battle-fight/nha8szqkuqiw17sde72nrtrlq
Yea, not buying into this. 2 former greats and I want to remember them for what they were. True champions. Wish them the best tho. I’ll spend my hard earned on the 5th with Spence vs Garcia
