Seems like Haymon has learned all the wrong lessons in boxing.
In one of the first signature fights, Peterson put on a boxing clinic against Danny Garcia. And once again, we had corrupt judges taking a shine, and frankly cheating on behalf of the favourite.
If Haymon is in the robbery business, as most boxing promoters have been in, like Arum, this is one of the MAIN things that turned off the mainstream from boxing.
I think Haymon is too corrupt and power hungry to see the bigger picture. And after the Pac Floyd fiasco, Haymon's PBC is more vulnerable than ever.
PBC is around until 2018. So deal with it, I mean they took-over ESPN's operation of Friday Night Fights. I just hope they get rid of the stupid stage and have the boxers walk in that way, it's just cheap, reminds me of WWE and has no business in boxing. As long as they clean-up some of the stupid goofy crap and let the fighters come out to their own music not this garbage by Hans Zimmer who clearly doesn't get a crap and threw that stuff together. PBC should get a nice TV deal eventually, and should work out for Haymon at the end.
At the rate they are spending money and getting nothing in return, if they were ever to get a deal it would be about 100 years before they will manage to break even. With the court battles on the way, I would be surprised to see PBC last to the end of 2016. Haymon will be lucky if he doesn't end up in some hole in the desert when it's all said and done.

its not a minority opinion that Peterson won. It was a close contest and thats what the scores reflected
Just look at the polls done here and the scores from the media
You are in the minority that think that Peterson won. Peterson came on the end which is more memorable but still gave a round away in between

Peterson clearly won almost all the rounds. It was close, true, but it can be close and clear.
When a casual sees this, it will seem like a robbery, when your own commentators are saying this!
You have the official scorecard saying one think, and then you have the commentators explaining why Peterson is schooling Garcia.
Casuals will think its a robbery, gamblers will once again be turned off from boxing, who used to be a big part of boxing.

No he did not. Peterson didn't land jack SH¡T first 6 rounds and lost almost all of them.
Agree. Peterson did nothing from rounds 1-6 and Garcia definitely won a round or two after the 6th round. At the very closest 7-5 Garcia.

why are people so desperate to see PBC fail. I'm just happy to cut on the TV and watch boxing. no way in hell did Peterson win that fight.
You could have Peterson winning, I didn't but I can see the argument.
It's karma for Garcia requesting a 143 catchweight.
To be fair, the judging has been pretty good on PBC so far, apart from this fight which i felt Peterson won. But i can see why the scores could be as close as they were, i just feel it should have been in favour of Peterson because i don't see how Garcia won more rounds.
PBC wouldn't fail because of things like that.
But it could fail from making horrible matchups when they have the means and the talent to make very good matchups on almost every card.
Haymon needs to step away from matchmaking as he still has the instincts of a manager.

The official PBC commentators all thought Peterson won by a huge margin. They had him winning almost every round. Garcia nicked a couple in the middle but thats it.
That was a close fight not a robbery
