She did nothing wrong.
She did the right thing by scoring it for the man who was landing almost all of the significant punches instead of the borat who was missing all night
She has a history of horrible scoring including in mma. where a lot of ufc fans also consider her one of the worst judges ever. Interesting a person can be so bad in two different sports.
Honestly, this would suck ass for Jacobs.. on the other hand, being a complete douche, it could make for some really interesting boxing. If they put Adelaide as a judge in there, Jacobs should be looking for a KO the whole fight. Could make it much more exciting.
You guys who think the Byrd controversy is over 1 fight have some learning to do. She's got a long history of incompetence in both boxing and MMA. Wildly bad stuff. Do a little research.
The vast majority of people besides canelo's loyal mexican fans wanted borat to win.
ESPECIALLY those media members who've been hyping up borat for years.
She did nothing wrong.
What are you talking about? Her scoring was outrageous.. Oscar even thought it was way out of line.
This is old news. Jacobs team objected and she's not going to be considered.
Can they extend their objection to cover all other fights anywhere in the universe for the rest of eternity?
She's not competent or trustworthy to judge a kid's game of tic-tac-toe.
She scored GGG- -Alvarez I, a fight the VAST majority of human beings on this planet plus boxing reporters had GGG winning comprehensively---118-110 Canelo.
Really? Seriously? 118-110? Nothing wrong? Did the right thing? Really?
IIRC she scored Mayweather vs Canelo a draw
Adalaide Byrd is short listed as a potential judge for the Alverez Jacobs match.

Is it just me but I'm thinking let them object to Byrd, make them happy then we can slip in the real corrupt Judge. They're happy and we're happy. It's a win win..
I cant see this one going to the judges so adelaide isn't a factor in my eyes. Canelo has been training for the bodyshot knockout since the rocky fielding fight. I think two gruelling fights against gennady golovkin have convinced canelo to end things quicker and the body punch is the tool to utilise for that.
Has anyone seen the recent training clips of him he looks super sharp letting crisp body shots go on the pads and what not. Inspiring to watch would love to be able to punch like that.
Link?
Or hopes on it being a late April Fools Joke?
I still contend that Army drill sergeant looking mfer who heads the NSAC is banging Mrs Byrd. I've seen her & him interact at live shows & they act like people who...know each other...like intimately...like he's eating Byrd coochie when Mr Byrd takes the grandkids to the park.
No joke unfortunately..

Yeah whats wrong with that? Its a Canelo fight against a legitimate threat. Im also sure we will see illegal handwraps, Canelo eating all the Mexican steak he can get down him and hes already hit Jacobs with a weight restriction clause. So obviously Adalaide Byrd will be rocking up to judge the fight in her recently purchased Bugatti.
