Everything wrong with boxing

You know, the older I get, the more I become disgusted with these types of decisions. I watched the fights on Saturday night, and was really happy for a fighter like Herrera who has taken the hard road up. You can see he really trained hard for this fight, his corner had an amazing game plan, and he gave the performance of his life. Then came the decision.... It's heart breaking to see a fighter like him, become a victim of money. Money in the future of who GB wants Danny Garcia to be. Knowing that a loss to some guy like Herrera, who is supposed to just be a stepping stone, would derail the entire plan they have for a Garcia vs Mayweather showdown. Now I don't like to use the word "robbery" but this was about as close as you get to that definition. What was even more frustrating was the stats. There's no way Herrera got hit with that many shots, his defense was superb that night. They took the left hook away from Danny, and his jab completely dominated the fight. Most of the shots the crowd was cheering for, did not land. He was catching and slipping most of the shots, and his face at the end of the fight showed it. Garcia was bruised and bloodied, while Herrera's face looked much better. Like Teddy Atlas said, you cannot take these punches back. Herrera gave of himself in this fight, and he will never get this back. I knew that he would need a KO to win in PR, it's just a shame because they are taking away the natural order of what should happen in boxing. The better man won, give Herrera the belts and the chance to make a big payday. That is the way things should be. On a side note, I HATE the open scoring. It takes away the suspense, and it shows the clear bias that they have for the home town fighter. I wish they would do away with it because it just frustrates you more than anything else. We need reform in boxing, we need to clean things up because I'm sick and tired of these horrible decisions. I know what these guys go through, how hard they train and how much of themselves they put into this sport. To rob them of victory because of some bigger money making plan is just corruption, bottom line. It's the reason I don't pay for any Mayweather fights, it's all a scam. They want to make money, while propping him up. Setting him up with Maidana, then Khan and possibly Danny is BS. We the fans want to see the best fights, I understand you have to make money but there's money to be made there with better opposition. :soapbox:
