After further review, even a 114-113 Beltran is pure bull****! How the f**k can you see 6 rounds for Burns? It's not the fixing that is killing boxing, it's the fans: ignorant, propagandist or just plain stupid.
Alexander vs Matthysse
Alexander vs Kotelnik
Bradley vs Pacquaio
Lewis vs Holyfield
Froch would be crazy to travel to the states.
Froch won at the most three rounds against Ward and two of the scores were 115-113.
Pac/Bradley and Lewis/Holyfield 1 was a total disgrace because those fights where not even close
Froch vs Dirrell

I had it the same score, the KD was the difference. Beltran does deserve a rematch but let's just hope that Burns recovers fully and as soon as humanly possible.
I re-watched the fight again and scored the fight a draw also. For sure Beltran fought a great fight and had a great plan, he just needed to start to pressure from the second round and he would have won the fight for sure. IMO
Fair point.
But I have to say, as a Brit, we are fast gaining (and deserving) a rep for being partial to our own fighters.
The old joke used to be "you have to knock the guy out to get a draw in Germany". You can now replace Germany for the UK it seems.
Although those british comentators are usually very fair. Respect.
Can't understand how so many people saw this fight so close. But the scoring of the second round is a good indicator of how people see a fight. Beltran controlled that round with precise shots while some of Burns wild swats connected. If you're looking for Burns to win, you look for any excuse to give him a round; hence, you give him rounds like the second.
I gave Burns 2 rounds definitely and 2 more just for being generous. 8-4 Beltran + the KD.
I'm dumbfounded that so many, even those who don't seem biased towards Burns, scored the 2nd for him. He got rocked, beaten up on the ropes, and did no work of note at any point.
It isn't amateur boxing where it's just about who lands more, and even then Beltran had the edge.
44 press score cards and none for Burns. The world knows who won this fight. What a shameful robbery. Thanks for posting this. Beltran is the real champ and Burns should be just a contender now and not a champion. This is why Ward would be crazy to fight Froch in England.
beltran certainly won the fight, but burns at least won some rounds. froch only won two rounds against ward on my card, and ward had two broken knuckles. i'd like to see ward fight froch in england, simply because he's got zero leverage, and i don't think even the brits would have the stones to rob ward when he wins ten or eleven rounds.

Well said.
Bettors know what the deal is in hotspots like UK, Texas, Germany etc. Odds for Burns kept low throughout the fight even though his arse was getting roasted. Think people don't know what's cooking???????

It's just a fact that the hometown fighter will get favours from the judges. It happens everywhere and is not exclusive to one country. If Devon Alexander was Burns last night, he'd have probably won 120-108 in St Louis.
