Prescott robbed

I see the anti McCloskey brigade are out in force again

 

Yeah, Sky's commentary was unbelievably bad. I don't normally get annoyed with commentary, but I was getting pissed of with some of the stuff they were saying. Shocking stuff from Sky.

McCloskey landed hardly any clean punches in that fight. A clean landing Prescott jab>>>>>>>A wild swinging McCloskey hook that clips Prescott's gloves.

 

:huh That was a close fight that could've went either way :deal

 

:roll:

 

Prescott won the fight imo but i won`t call it a robbery.All three judges scoring the fight to McCoskey is odd,an spit decition would of been more easier to understand.I guess the crowed reaction to everything McCloskey landed or got blocked told in the end.The commentary was terribly one sided in favour of McCloskey in the last two rounds.

 

I laughed my tits off at that, terrible commentary, terrible decision and to be frank a terrible fight

 

I couldn't care less about McCloskey, he seems a nice (if deluded) fella, but the scores he won by last night were hilarious. He was getting outboxed at times and, until the eighth, he was struggling to get any foothold.

There's no way that, after the first round KD, he managed to win the eight rounds he'd need to win. He'd be lucky to have got a draw, but at least that's a feasible outcome.

Why does everything have to have an agenda?

 

presscot clearly won that fight. everyone has missed out on a proper fight between prescot and maidana.

not to mention a khan rematch, now we are left with an average at best powerless mcloskey to watch!

it makes me sick the money men run this sport!

 

I wouldn't call it a terrible decision, but I definitely felt Prescott did enough. I had him winning rounds 1,2,3,5,6,7 clearly and gave Dudey 4,8,9,10,11 clearly. I originally scored the 12th to Prescott, however on reflection an even round would have been fairer. With these scores and taking into account the KD I have it either 115-113 or 115-112 to Prescott. If you don't want to score the KD then it's 115-113 or 115-114, depending on the 12th. I suppose if I was being really generous to McCloskey I could have ignored the KD call and given him a 10-9 in the 12th, which would have made it a draw.

 

I thought it was very close and when you get close fights the home fighter usually gets the decision!
Ridiculous anyone claiming a robbery.

 

was the stats man from south america? i bet if you do your own stats you will discover there a bit bias to!:shock:

 

if a runner crossed the finishing line a bit in front of the rest of the field, but second place got gold? My opinion is[being a casual athletics fan] to skim through the other chanels looking for something that doesent insult the inteligence.

 

Good for you....

 

Robbery was on Friday night. Prescott won it imo but NOT a robbery

 

Was not the best scoring but Ive seen worse.It happens,I had Prescott up and was a bit surprised at the scores.I thought the best McCloskey could hope for was the draw.I think being at home helped dudey for sure.It aint a decision I would bang on about though,the home town kid got it in a pretty tight fight.
