    Got to feel for Farmer, had a tough end to the year being shot and then losing out in a World title fight to a cheat

    Hope he gets another chance at the title if they strip Ogawa and hope it’s his night ..

    Bull****, one way or another the home fighter will win.

    What's there to feel for Farmer, he got outboxed, he lost fair and square. He wasn't violently KO'd.

    Farmer was clearly robbed and now he really deserves his title because he beat a drug cheat who couldn't win clean with an advantage.

    Farmer is a beast for real. They had to rob him on the cards, he bashed this guys eyes shut.

    Guy got shot and lost a title fight but then found out the person was cheating

    I don't buy that positive for a second. Its trumped up made in Vegas bull****.

    How is a guy getting shot relevant to the outcome of a fight? It's not. Are judges supposed to award him pity rounds for that? Farmer is thoroughly average and got legitimately outpointed, how was he cheated? Did the testosterone help Ogawa to score a highlight reel KO? Did it give him extra stamina? He's always had good stamina, most Japanese fighters have impeccable stamina, Farmer just got showed up once again after taking a slight step up in class, he will always lose at the top level.

    American judges really ****ed up with this one, they had the out and out gall, the temerity, the ****ing audacity to score a fight accurately for the huge underdog foreign fighter and against the home and the HBO fighter, so now they're rectifying that moment of fairness and sanity.

    Serves him right. Farmer got robbed hopefully the belt will be vacant and he'll get the first shot at it or the decision is overturned and farmer is granted the win.

    And “how was he cheated”.. so is every drug abuser in boxing innocent until their PEDs kill or mess someone up

    It’s banned for a reason and if you use it you’re cheating

    Boxing is too weak to ever give the positive fighter the L.

    They should've had the guts to do that from day 1 instead of giving them a free pass with the NC (and half the time, they never even bother doing that)

    Put the shoe on the other foot, how would you be reacting if the American fighter went to Japan and narrowly beat the home fighter and the favorite in controversial (to people who can't score fights accurately) fashion, but deserved the win nonetheless, and conveniently a month later tests positive and is stripped of his rightful victory. I'm sure none of you would be pissed and crying bull**** over that, would you? Yeah, controversial tests only pop up in places like Chechnya and Russia right? Bull****.

    This is a corrupt sport, and corrupt **** happens all the time, there's no conspiracy theorizing here, if you think that inside players don't throw their weight around, then you're living in a world of fantasy.

    It's Tevin Farmer not Keith Thurman, Farmer doesn't have an Al Haymon or Bob Arum to "help" him along in his career. He worked through the ranks the old fashioned way. He wasn't ushered in and handed the chance in his second pro fight like some people.
