    No, but this often happens in fights over seas. Nothing new.

    Guys just think for one minute...
    When Floyd & now Camelo fight in Vegas Who do Bob Bennett, the NSAC & Vegas boxing want to see win ???? Their cash cow
    The one that brings in the $$$$$. Np matter if he is really the better fighter or not
    Now who selects the officials. The same gang along with the promoter.All judges know that a dec given to the house fighter is expected so to keep getting the plum assignments they score accordingly. Are you with me so far??? lol

    Now I saw recently that Bob Bennett the head honcho of the NSAC stated that "Most boxing fans have no idea how to score a fight" Then when asked what he thought about Adelaide Byrds ludicrous 118-110 card for Canelo in GGG1
    he said "Adelaide is one of my best judges she just had a bad night" LOL Looks to me like Old Bob doesn't know how to judge a fight himself
    What has happened to the noble art its being slowly destroyed

    It matters because we want good, fair judging in the sport. Not taking anything from Joshua. He won fair and square and was the better man. That said, why did the judges have it 5-1 for Joshua??? Did anyone really have that???
