Another shocking decision in Germany!

[Moon]

... Garay is even more impressive than the last fight, and yes again another shock decision to Zsolt Erdei ........ how long can this go on?

Really, for ever. Also, Germany is not an island of bad decisions. It happens everywhere, it's just the Germany recently seems to be home for a bunch of wreckless decisions.

[moochi]

even international judges are difficult because the promoters exert a lot of pressure on them....like in the markus beyer vs danny green fight when they practically forced the U.S ref to change his decision.

Erdei is an average fighter.....and he was outboxed by a very determined Hugo Hernan Garay. He wouldn't match any of the top contenders.

I just can't understand why and how this can go on for so long?....it shows that the Boxing Organizations are turning blind eyes as long as they are receiving their fees.

It is disgusting.

I just watched the WBO Light Heavyweight Championship bout between Zsolt Erdei and Hugo Garay. Zsolt is based in Germany and he fought the same opponent last year to win a disputed majority decision.

So these guys met once again last night and of course in Germany, and this time around Hugo Garay is even more impressive than the last fight, and yes again another shock decision to Zsolt Erdei. The only fair judge was the American who scored it 118 - 110, whereas the other two puppets had it at 116-112 and 115-113. Even the crowd after the bout jeered Zsolt!!

This is just so sad, and how long can this go on? This young up and comer has came over to germany twice now, and done everything to prove he is the better, and only shocking decisions as such are handed out.

What can be done to prevent this?

You are partly right, I've heard that Garay won the rematch in most people's eyes, but he didn't win the first fight. So you're 1 for 2.

...he's already beat Julio Cesar Gonzalez who is a top 5 light heavyweight in a fight that wasn't even close, so I don't know what you're talking about.

Munn...it doesn't happen in other countries also...but these are a lot more seldom.....

it seems that nearly every fight in germany is a farce....even the DLH vs STURM fight was at least a close fight with perhaps a draw the more justifiable......but in germany it is a totally different perception........you have to see it to believe it....even the crowd last night booed at the decision.

yes he did beat julio cesar gonzalez...and all credit it to him for THAT BOUT!

but that is all he has done.....but anyway nothing personal to Zsolt Erdei, because he is not doing the rigging behind the scenes....but it is to the german establishment as a whole......

So beating Garay fair and square the first time around doesn't count now.

Germany should be banned from staged boxing matches. i`m serious, there a law onto themselves, no wonder Roy Jones refused to fight there.

I totally agree, but who could enforce it?? Boxing needs 1 ruling body.
