    Last night two incompetent judges robbed LH Campillo ,when they awarded
    Travis Cloud a winner,after Cloud lost maybe 7-8 rounds to the Spanish LH Campillo. Cloud's mom was so surprised at the gift, she fainted...What say you .?

    You should ask how it ranks alongside the glorious robberies of the past. Then it has that nice Classic twist on it.

    Is boxing fixed? to many robberies that are so one sided money has to be changing hands to fix yes no?

    I can see why they scored it to Cloud, but they really shouldn't have.

    Flashy, big punching and large charges and bursts of effort look pretty, but Campillo was far and away the better boxer in there.

    I had him winning by two points.

    Been surprised about robberies in boxing means you don't watch much modern boxing Burt, it seems like most fights are decided by a flip of a coin rather than going to the rightful winner

    I didn't see this fight mind you

    PP, because i don't go ringside, doesn't mean i dont watch modern boxing matches. I watch every boxing match of interest on my cable stations. But I will not watch PPV,as I would rather watch the paint dry on my wall,than to give these mediocre once a year fighters my hard earned loot...

    Shame these decisions are horrible today.....years ago not as common...although I remember Toney vs Tiberi that was a bad one
