    What the ****? If you have any dignity, you would retire from posting after making that post. Surely, you jest.

    this weird paranoia americans have about getting screwed outside of their borders is so weird considering the amount of times foreign fighters have been screwed on american soil.

    People who are defending this obvious circus show is the reason why boxing get's away with doing this BS. Yes your guy won but think like a boxing fan and you'll know this is plain corruption.

    Really? Even if that's true, they must have had contact with Hearn afterwards.

    It was obvious the referee was helping Joshua, who even seemed to be chuckling about it.

    This. Joe Louis got a robbery over Walcott and gave him an immediate rematch and knocked him out. This also the case with Floyd in the first Castillo fight. Floyd rematched him and schooled him. Can't give Joshua credit for this win.

    After the 4th Joshua was dropping rounds until the 12th. He also got away with punching Parker during breaks with an uppercut twice, but when Parker tried to retaliate the ref stopped Parker. Regardless, Joshua won 5 rounds at best.

    If he ever fights Wilder or Fury he gets stopped.

    The big fight for Wilder is Joshua and Joshua is the bigger name and generates more money so Wilder should go to the UK.

    If Wilder won't go to the UK Joshua should go for Povetkin

    Well that's exactly why they're paranoid.

    The ref was, what, some Italian? and one of the judges who scored the biggest margin was a Kiwi, the other was an American. Last time Parker fought in the UK, he won by the same margin against Hughie Fury, and people could argue that Hughie Fury won more rounds.

    In Deontay's last fight, he was clearly dazed and the ref decided the doctor take a look at him, giving him the extra time to recover. America is known to play the slight of hand tactics. Plus they always seem to insist on having all American judges and refs.

    1 judge from the UK, 1 from New Zealand, the other and the ref from a neutral country. That's how you do it. That's fair.

    major title fights should be held in a neutral country, if one wants fair scoring and refereeing.
