whats youre opinion of Lehdermans scoring on HBO

Sometimes harold is really good with his scoring, sometimes even spot on.

But usually i find he is more biased towards fighters with styles he likes. eg aggressor, more active puncher.

His scoring of alexander - kotelnik was horrible

 

Surprisingly only by the slimmest of possible margins.

The dude sucks. And is obviously bias. It'd be different if his bias didn't bleed through his voice.

 

This.

 

I agree he's not the best(he had Williams beating Quintana in the first fight ffs).

BUT like someone else said he's 73 and he puts up his cards live without the possibility of ever going back on it like us all.I'm sure he's change up some of his stuff.

Believe me if you ever read fight night RBRs on here you would see some utter crap.CRAP.

 

I think ledderman gets it right 98% of the times but has occasionally rewarded ineffective aggression.

 

He likes aggressive fighters just like the official judges which is fine..

But someone needs to sit him down an explain the differance between aggression and effective agression, because you only give points for one of the 2...

 

I agree with Lederman 100% every time, every round. Of course I agree when their HBO fighters get "robbed" because Lederman said so.

HBO has the tendency to influence viewers and protect their in house fighters. Their not always wrong, but I would prefer neutral commentators.

 

He always favors the agressor

 

sometimes I agree sometimes I don't, I guess like any boxing judge.

 

Sometimes he scores well and sometimes he sucks bigtime!

 

"Pacquiao cant miss him with the left hand Jim!"

Video evidence then shows Pacquiao repeatedly missing Bradley with the left, and most of what he was throwing. :nut

 

Yea it was pretty bad , Hatton didnt win not 1 rnd on my scorecard .

 

My opinion of lehdermans scoring is that same opinion i have of other judges scorings . Sometime i agree , sometimes i dont .

One thing I wish HBO would stop doing is allowing Lederman to give his opinions on the quality of the judges scoring the fight. Mentioning their scores for other notable fights is cool. But IMO, Lederman takes it too far when he starts talking about how they got fights 'wrong'.

It seems like more and more in Lederman's mind, the qualification for being a 'good judge' is having scored fights the way he did.
