    I've not watched it again since but I had it very wide for Beltran. Almost everyone was in agreement, it's cool if you honestly believe that it could have been legitimately scored a draw, I just won't take anything else you say seriously.

    Shouldn't take anything Billy says serious anyway. 90% of the time is just waffle or something he had for him dinner the night before coming out to speak.. As for the fight I deducted a point off Beltran which was for a infringement can't remember now but he had been warned and the ref gave him a talking too(judges are allowed to take a point off even if the ref doesn't) with that in mind I gave that Round to Ricky as a 10-8 and had Ricky winning by 1 round.. If that point off didn't happen then the round may have gone to Beltran so I would of had it 2 rounds to Beltran. If that makes sense I kind of explains how close I had the fight..

    first time of watching it I had it 115-113 went and watched it back on Sunday night and had it 114-113 to Beltran so it's not this massive robbery everyone is making it out to be Beltran just nicked it but it wasn't some daylight robbery of someone being 117-111 up and being robbed.

    David I've forgot more about boxing that what you'll ever know.
    You blow smoke up your brothers arse and he's done nothing yet, both Simpson and crolla would beat Ronnie with ease

    Beltran won end of, it isnt the first bullsh*t decision we have had and it won't be the last.

    My worry is that I believe Crawford will beat Ricky on points but we will get another bullsh*t hometown decision

    A lot of press scores had it as wide as 117-111. Out of 44 press scores that were collected at the time, 44 scored it to Beltran. There's not a case to be made that Ricky won.

    TWO from 44 gave Beltran 117. Hardly "a lot".

    Not disputing Beltran won but worth pointing out when you are trying to use facts to point score.

    117-111 is far too wide IMO 116-112 is as wide as you can give it IMO but even at that I still at a push can only score it 115-113 myself.
     
  10. Ricky Burns made it as a World Boxing Champion and you have achieved nothing in life.

    Sad and jealous idiot alert :lol:

    Unless making weight is weakening him, I'd advise him to stay put.

    Don't see why Burns couldn't beat Peterson at 140, that would be a good fight imo.

    Its not the lack of understanding that annoys me, everyone will have differing levels of knowledge depending how long they've been watching the sport or how involved they are directly. Its the constant abuse that ALL our fighters get on here that is getting pathetic - Froch is a c unt, Groves is a twat, Burns is sh it, Bellew is garbage, Cleverley's a nobody, Khan is chinny dickhead and so on.....

    Nothing like getting behind our boys!
