    Tonight we've seen 2 clear robberies, Bradley DRAW Chaves and Benavides UD Herrera. Friday we saw the robbery of the year with Escandon SD Cave.

    When is this cráp going to stop?! :-(

    When they abandon the 3-judge system and have all winners determined by my scorecard? :think

    that would help a lot.

    your scorecard is obviously much, much better on average as the paid (off) judges' :yep

    Its simple.

    If there's one dodgy scorecard it gets investigated and that judge goes judge some under-card fights for the rest of their careers.

    In football/soccer, if there's ****py refs who make mistakes every other week they get demoted from duty because they're not up to the job of officiating a sports event with unbiased fluency.

    When they start letting new judges score these televised events instead of the same lackeys. I would rather have Joe Blow from Buttho, Michigan judge a prize boxing match rather than a judge (that understands the politics of boxing) who has done it so many times already.

    Just a few weeks ago, Gradovich beat Velez like 9-3 and all he got was a draw.

    Agree with the origional post, and this... I prob agree with 80-90% of your cards in close fights (where difference of human opinion is normal) and at the very least your scores are fair, non biased and more informed than myself.....

    After the 3 disputed cards this weekend kinda turns fans off the sport...

    Hope Im wrong but cant see it changing anytime soon...

    Perhaps its a major conspiracy! (or 5 beers talkin')


    What if...
    Gambling companies work with fight organisers to decide outcomes of the fights to throw spanners into the mix so they all win extra money from giving up their 0's and handing out silly SD(FMJ vs Canelo - How many people, really would have bet for a SD?)

    Just my thoughts on some of these stupid scorecards.
    Perhaps not the promoters themselves, perhaps its some of the gambling companies paying off the judges to fix fights!

    There has been a lot of factors in the past.

    Promoters are known to fine dine judges. Organized criminals have been know to make threats against fighters and judges. Judges have been known to work with shady characters to move the ticker a few points so certain people can win bets on spreads. And fighters have been know to throw fights or carry a fighter for the Over bets.

    There are a lot of factors, but no one outside of a few know what's really going on.

    Perhaps its time to give the judging up to... computers?

    IB and his 2 clones need to be judging every fight.
