I was talking about him getting personal. And I agree with the whole judging thing, they've been terrible this year. I've said multiple times the scorecard in which it was 116-112 for Adamek is a joke.....but to say Cunnigham dominated this fight and CLEARLY won 10-11 rounds is just as laughable. This fight could of gone either way. It is what it is.
Yeah, I also find 10 or 11 rounds too many. Maybe, maybe a 9-3 but it looked like 116-112 or at least 115-113 for Cunningham. When it was declared a draw, I couldn't believe it... the sad part is that when Buffer announced there was a correction, I knew Cunningham was getting jobbed, ha!
It's sad when you have to say "it is what it is." I couldn't have been more disappointed in the sport when roach said "well, that's boxing." Glad Flores chimed in immediately and disagreed and stated why. Really, that's how you want to outro a fix on NBC, roach?
I actually like Cunnigham just as much as I like Adamek. (I'm not even a big Adamek fan. Lol?) Not sure what you're talking about, to each his own I guess. Steve did display a strong jab, and some dancing skills....that's about it. Adamek was the aggressor throughout the fight and he clearly landed the harder shots and more of them. Steves lack of aggression killed him, IMO... rounds are 3 minutes long and he got lackadaisical and it bit him in the ass with the judges, you have to be delusional to think that those flurries at the end of the rounds didn't earn some points with the judges.
For the record: I called this fight a draw.
Also, why you so mad though?
You didn't see the fight, lmao! Stop guessing how the fight went and watch the fight.
Didn't Freddie have adamek winning and bj Flores said it could have been a draw so how is that a robbery?
You saw the fight. Why are you asking us? You're wrong on both accounts anyway. Hilarious!
It was on NBC. And you wonder why the casual fan says "boxing is dead." MMA is starting to make a little noise and there's less issues with judging in decisions there.
I'm not saying that it's okay for judges to shaft deserving fighters on HBO, SHO, ESPN, or whichever other fight network, but when you put boxing on platforms such as NBC and CBS, you have to get something like this right. The casual fan will look at this fight and think that Vince McMahon is putting on boxing events.

This wasn't a toss up. Steve clearly won. Stop being phony for once. Just admit that your boy lost. Trying to box peoples thoughts in with your weasel point is hilarious. Steve did dominate this fight with his jab alone!

I believe Freddie and BJ both had Cunningham winning the last round, which gave Cunnignham the fight for both. Flores would have had it 116-112 for Cunningham from my understanding.
Doubtful. Fight was good. If the ratings are okay, they'll get another crack
More-so credibility than the actual thing.... people will be turned away a little
lets hope those same people were tweeting with the same outrage at the REAL robberies this year; because a W by Adamek is not nearly as bad as those other ones.....not even close. This was a close fight, it could of gone either way, period. Lets be real here, most people who are so dead-set on this being some huuugee robbery is because they expected USS to get KO'd, and the fact that he boxed well and lasted all 12 is blinding people. And I say that because all of those people scored it 118-110 for Steve. You dont win by 8 rounds without dominating a fight, and if you believe Steve dominated this fight, you're just as delusional as the judge who scored it 116-112 for Adamek...... This fight was a toss up and almost every round could of went either way, and a draw would of been the best outcome. IMO.This wasn't a toss up. Steve clearly won. Stop being phony for once.

Poor USS. His time is running out and now he's getting screwed. How many more gifts will Adamek get? I felt he lost to Chambers too. I like Adamek but these decisions are making me dislike him a lot.

It's very simple. The powers that be don't give a **** about boxing. They couldn't give a flying **** about the fighters, fans and boxing itself. They care about one thing; short term monetary gain.
so they act like the federal government...okay I agree
Because Promoters/Advisors pay commisions millions of dollars?
And if a Judge wants to get constant fights with certain promoters they will cater them, because they make $100 a night or something like if they doing a local card, so if they wanna keep on doing big fights they gotta "lean"
Oh well thanks for clearing that up. You know I've been in boxing my whole life as a fighter trainer and even a few small promotions and I never knew why the judges robbed fighters.................. ANYWAY
the point I was making was it's good for the day but horrible for business over all
