    Now these two chaps didn't have to bring their belts into hostile territory but kudos to them for doing it.
    How do you see Bob Bennett and his personal stooges Clements, Byrd and Trowbridge treating them? :sherlock:

    I think Mikey will beat Zlaticanin fair and square, but Frampton needs to fight even better this time around, he could get jobbed, its a real possibility as LSC has good punch output plus I think the promoters would like a trilogy

    I think so. Frampton pushed the pace more than usual in his first bout with Santa Cruz—or at least the first half. And Zlaticanin always has his foot on the pedal. I still think Garcia beats him, even though his only foray above 130 pounds was against a blown up featherweight.

    But I think each will be judged fairly.

    If I was managing a fighter these days I'd steer clear of Vegas & the NSAC

    The same could have been said about GGG in the UK. If it was not for the stoppage those scorecards would have been served with tea and crumpets.

    American boxing is fair and balanced. I won't have you bad mouthing it.

    Unlikely. Going to Las Vegas as the away fighter is like in the WWE when the special ref is your arch enemy or the other guys tag team partner.

    It would've been a draw at the point of the stoppage, which wasn't that inaccurate to be honest.

    If you want to compare the UK to the USA, best point of comparison is to look at what happened to Darleys Perez in his first fight in Manchester v Crolla (where he was a bit fortunate to get a draw) then on the Kov-Ward undercard against Hooker where he was robbed blind (by 3 Amercian judges, no less).

    In the UK, the sanctioning bodies pick the judges. In Nevada the commission selects the judges. That's why in Nevada you will often find 3 judges from 1 fighters home country (i.e. Ward-Kov), in the UK in world title bouts they are all selected from neutral ground.

    No people that are smart enough to see the corruption.

    You do know Nevada is one of the few State commissions where the commission pick all the judges for the world title fights?

    You do know Las Vegas makes a lot of money for these fights and want the home fighter to keep coming back right? Why do you think they let Mayweather get away with juicing for years?

    What's it's like being stuck in a world where Floyd Mayweather tells you what to think?
