    Since he is local I've read about him in the local paper from time to time. Just thought I'd throw this out there for the Clotty fans. :D

    [url]Boxing judge Miller regarded among the best[/url]


    Miller’s travels have taken him to 15 countries where he enjoys status as one of the sport’s best and most requested judges.
    A boxing judge is considered average if he enjoys a 75-80 percent success ratio. Miller’s 98 percent success ratio places him near the top of that list.

    A pity Cotto's cousin and some random crackhead were the other two judges.

    Well, if this guy was such a good judge, he sure got it wrong last night. Cotto won a close, but clear decision. I had it 115-112.

    A lot of people getting my reasons for this thread wrong, but that isn't unusual here. So, you say a guy with lots of experience in judging and sitting ringside "sure got it wrong last night" based on what? Even if you got a hi def stream instead of a crappy pirated internet feed you feel justified in saying this? I think the range of opinions show this was anything but a 'clear decision'.

    If you gave Clottey 7 rounds, the fight would be a draw due to the 10-8 round for Cotto. You'd have to give him 8 rounds to put him ahead. Anybody who gave Clottey 8 rounds had an agenda going in to the fight.
