No. If you win the fight but don't get it..in that fighters eyes he's been robbed. If he didn't get a decision that he rightfully should have got then its a ****ing robbery. Why does it have to be wide before it s considered a robbery? It you should have won but didn't get it uv been robbed whether it was close or not. Most close decisions go to the hometown fighter or the marquee name OR there is some other form of corruption involved...so if that's the basis on which a fight is decided then somebody has been ****ing robbed. To say you can't have a competitive 'close' fight but never have a definate winner is ****** logic. I don't give a **** what anyone wants to say... If you should have got a decision but didn't then regardless of how 'close' it is, you've been ****ing cheated out of it.
Can't be anything other than a close fight, either man could of won the fight, someone had to, therefore whatever decision they came up with as long as they had it close was fine by me. Good luck to the kid, 43 fights and an Olympic Gold Medal, I have no problems with that at all. Well done.
Again[ffs], A robbery happens when one fighter clearly wins the fight and isn't awarded the decision. Either Joshua or the Italian could have been awarded that fight. I personally thought the Italian just about nicked it. However, neither fighter could have been robbed had the other taken it. It was that close.
In fairness there's no way he lost the second by 3. Overall I did think the Italian shaded it but some parts of it were quite wild (and low quality) and it could easily have gone either way.
I liked it better under the old corrupt 3 judge "i'll vote for my guy you vote for your guy and we'll let the impartial but completely clueless bothtswanan or icelandic judge decide" system. This button pushing crapola olympic nonsense makes me want to hurl. Joshua got his ass beat by Cammarelle in any normal universe where the result of a bout isn't determined by punch counters and button pushers. And Joshua better learn to move his head if he wants to make it as a pro.
How did the count back work then please? I don't understand, Joshua was two rounds down at the start of the 3rd.
