Taylor-Chavez Judge

2 rounds !!! get the **** outta here with that ****

 

there were 2 rounds in the fight (late in the fight) that chavez was pounding taylor and the commentators weren't saying a god damn thing......

 

I dont agree with what you're saying.......as I watched the fight when it was shown live, that laser guided right that Chavez would shoot out like a missile would stick out to me like a sore thumb......
.......it was just vicious....and the digs to the body were debilitating.
I honestly watched the fight in anger because all the HBO crew talked about was the brilliance of Meldrick Taylor.......
.......when the rights by Chavez were landing with thudding regularity, it was conveniently the HBO crews lag time to talk about anything other than the right in front of them.

What happened afterward was that HBO headquarters got flooded with fanmail complaining about the bias of the boxing broadcast team.......
.....so many fans voiced their displeasure to HBO headquarters, that at one point weeks afterward, Jim Lampley went on record in an interview about the fan mail, and Lampley said that the fanmail forced him to view the videotape for himself.
Lampley re-watched the fight and admitted that the
HBO team was subconciously biased in their call of the fight.

Lampley went on to say, that although he still thought Taylor was winning the fight, he admitted that the HBO team, himself included should have given more credence to the work that now in hindsight having rewatched the fight, Chavez was clearly accomplishing.

In amatuer rules where a jab counts the same as a thudding shot his with force and square on the face, Meldrick Taylor is clearly ahead by amatuer standards.

.....but by pro rules, Chavez-Taylor was a coinflip headed into the final round.

 

That really pissed me off. I hate when trainers act like they are more important than the fighters.

 

Taylor was winning...and Im pretty sure on my card would have won if Steele didnt stop it. But it would have been a pyrrhic victory if there has ever been one.

I think Ill watch it again and put my score up...Im pretty sure I had Mel up 7 to 4..with the 10-8 round that still would have given him a 1 point buffer.

But to be sure Ill give it another look...I think we all should.

It is arguable that the same argument against Castillo beating Floyd...Chavez' punches were simply more effective. Plus throughout the fight Chavez was the agressor-- the reasoning used why Pac beat Marquez.

 

I gave Chavez rounds 2, 9, and 11.
I gave Taylor rounds 1, 3-8.
I had round 10 even.

7-3-1 Taylor going into the 12th.

 

I had it 7-4 for taylor also, and I could see how someone might have had it 6-5.

Only two rounds for Chavez???

He did a lot of ****ing damage in two rounds.......... (I know he could do damage in rounds he lost, but that seemed so poetic.)

Same here, except I scored the 10th for Chavez not even.

And I thought the 5th could go either way. I think that was the round.
