Boxing Thread

So you have a guy winning a fight by 4 rounds but its bollocks that its a robbery that he didn't get the decision?

Yes. Every single round was razor close. You do understand how boxing is scored, yes?

I gave him those four. A punch here and there and somebody else gives them to Canelo. There are world champion boxers who scored it 8-4 to Canelo. There are others who did the same for GGG.

For it to be a robbery, GGG would have to have won clearly. When you acknowledge that the rounds were incredibly close, it's impossible to win clearly.

Thanks for your definition of robbery I will spread the word around the forum to send you a PM next time anyone wants to use it on this thread to ensure that it meets your strict subjective standards.

The absolute state of you.

Oh to have the knowledge of Gallsman.

It's nothing to do with knowledge. It's about the capacity to objectively think about what you've just watched.

A fighter lost a razor thin decision. That's it.

No doubting your ability to think objectively. Just the manner of dismissing the views of others.

Dismissing biased, nonsensical views that refuse to contemplate an alternative point of view? Guilty as charged.

Ok in cold light of day...

The purse and PPV revenue for round 3 will be enormous and the longer they let it stew the higher the money it will rise. 

Alvarez got 55% of last night's purse if I remember correctly.

Still think GGG had it by 3/4 rounds.

I reckon Povetkin has a very good chance of knocking out Joshua next weekend, was checking the betting and a round by round KO for Povetkin ranges from a minimum of 50/1 to a max of 100/. Thinking of backing him in every round for something different.

[nrico2006]

The bias of the commentators would have led you to believe that Alvarez was coasting the first half of the fight and that staying off the ropes should equal points for Alvarez

Everyone see the video of BJS taking the piss out of the addict girl and making her slap a random stranger and call him a paedo? sc**bag.

Complete dirtbag.
Few boxers that project the idiot, sc**bag persona have lived up to it as thoroughly as BJS

[bennydorano]

AJ not looking too clever here

[gallsman]

AJ in trouble. Povetkin 2-0 up, has possibly broken his nose.

[bennydorano]

He's still behind no matter what the Brit commentators shite talk about.

[square_ball]

They are unreal. Froch just said AJ is boxing well! He's been average at best so far.
