As a Brit, did Canelo and Wilder lose to Golovkin and Fury respectively. Yes. However with the two 10_8 for Wilder and Golovkin not getting a knockdown, its always gonna be tight.
How can any Brit like me shout robbery, when Bellew was "ahead" against Usyk, and Joshua was "ahead" against Povetkin(landed 2_1power shots on Aj) and even worse Wladimir, who at worse drew the first 5 rounds, then battered Aj from ,6_11 including a vicious knockdown.
Pot Kettle black me thinks. Only difference being is that all the Brit bouts ended in Ko. But does not takeaway from atrocious scoring.
You cant win in this game. Parker went to the uk and beat hughie fury in his hometown. Great judging i thought unless you were from fury's inbred clan. Who complained loudly that british judges were biased against THEM in favour of the foreigner. They were talking sh !t as the fury's always do. But like i said, you cant win with some people.
Another thing which annoys me is the ridiculously biased commentating. It's like a concerted effort to stack everything in favour of the house fighter. I suppose this is done everywhere. But just rewatching the fight I mentioned earlier on YouTube, and commentators are so biased. "We didn't see the cut occur, but it must have been a clash of heads..!" etc. They totally ignore great work from the away fighter and act like the home fighter is throwing bombs when only glancing blows or missing entirely.
One of the worst robberies I've seen in recent years was Brit light middleweight Jamie Cox over Obodai Sai for the Commonwealth title in London. Cox was clearly outboxed and outfought, just second in every which way. Bust up, cut up, got deducted two points for low blows. Basically got exposed and schooled. At best it was about 9-3 to Sai, with the deductions making it 117-109. Scorecards came in 115-113, 114-112 and 114-113 all for Cox.
2 knockdowns is only 2 additional points from losing 10-2
The score that nearly everyone had for the Fury fight was 116-110, with some scoring it 115-111.
How is that close? In order to score that fight a draw, they must score Wilder 5 rounds. So 3 rounds outside of the 2 he scored knockdowns in. That’s crazy
