    No one likes Jim Watt full stop. It seems like it's all we hear in the british forum is how the whole sky team is useless and the judges are a joke.

    Well done Webb.I had Webb up by 3.I thought he landed the better punches for most of the fight.

    In a lot of the RbR threads people just end up conferring, seeing other posters scores, all scoring the fights roughly the same way and then using this as proof that the judges got it wrong when they don't agree.


    We should organize a night where we have no RbR thread and no in fight comments posted and see how we all score the fights independently. If we are lucky enough to pick a closeish fight then I think the results would be very interesting.

    Good idea. Everyone pm one person there score. And he reveal them at the end.

    Not a bad idea. We can weed out the muppets and weaklings and banish them to the General.

    I suggested something before about everyone just posting there scores every 3 rounds as opposed to every round which would kinda help.

    Your idea ought to be tried though.

    I know what you meant pal. :good

    Just saying I do feel the whole sport at the min is very corrupt. As much as I do love it, I mean the refs, for example the Fury/Mcdermott, the judging example tonight. Even the sky team are very biased also lack any depth and just agree with everyone example tonight. Fighters that don't deserve fights example Hatton for the euro belt tonight. Wheres the fair play in it?

    As I said I knew what you meant and yes Webb showed heart in the last half of the fight agreed.

    How about Abraham-Dirrell tomorrow night? Got a feeling that will be a close one.

    EDIT- Not asking how it would go but as a possible fight for Gaz's idea to be carried out.

    I don't know how people copy anyway. If you're doing a half way decent job of scoring in the RBR you shouldn't have a chance. When I can be bothered to score I usually have the posting page open and I submit it as soon as the round is over.
