Yes I think I'm the first person to shed light on the home ref and three home judges for American fighters when they fight at home against foreigners in world title fights and how it only happens over there I've opened a lot of of eyes regarding that and I think it would be a good idea to document the nationalities of the refs and judges for robberies and controversial decisions
If you want, go ahead and have free reign of my robberies thread, add all of those little factoids that you want, but if you don't because that's a hell of a lot of work. That's totally understandable as well.
Thing is I would actually do it but it would kill my eyes I hate having to spend time scanning through fighter's Boxrec pages to find out the nationalities of the officials and I would advise you not to try it either because it's a real pain in the ass. But I've done it many times and I know I'm 100% right about it. Why? Because one is crazy common and the other is like trying to find Elvis riding on the back of a snow leopard in the Sahara desert lol I think someone needs to create an app where they list the names of the officials before each fight or include them on one which has already been created
@Pepsi Dioxide offered to do it, maybe if he eventually gets around to it, we can both help out, and tweak it. But yeah, I totally get where you're coming from. Doing Kirk's Fight List every week is a pain in my ass or should I say eyes, and I don't suffer from eye issues nearly as much as you do.
That would be cool. But like I said it's a real pain in the ass and unfortunately for me it's painful for my eyes and that was before they got as bad as they are now too But we can all chip I guess especially if we had a big posse
Depends what you are trying to achieve. If he wants to make the most money he can he should fight Tank who will execute him.
How exactly does this work? Loma, for instance, is a resident of California. He pays taxes in the U.S. He’s lived in the U.S. for years. He trains in the U.S. He’s had like, what, two fights outside of the U.S. in his entire career (China and UK iirc). So why should he be treated like a ‘foreigner’ for choosing judge/referee selection purposes? Just like the Klitschkos weren’t from Germany but do you think them having German judges/refs for fights there was stacking the deck against them?
He is still operating at a high level and nearly won the undisputed championship at 135, most thinking he won. He still has several fights left in him. He should try and get the rematch with Haney and if not get big money fights with Stevenson, Davis, and medium level money with Kombosos. I don’t see a reason to stop now. Good chance he could beat Haney in a rematch if he dominates more rounds and there is also a chance Haney moves up giving Lomachenko the chance to dominate everyone else. 135 is a hot division if everyone fights.
