Van Hoy Responds To Diaz v. Malignaggi Allegations

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Gale Van Hoy, the Texas judge in the center of the Paulie Malignaggi-Juan Diaz controversy, has spoken out. Several days before the fight, Malignaggi blasted Golden Boy Promotions for selecting Van Hoy as a judge for the fight. Malignaggi said Van Hoy was very pro-Texas judge and would likely score the fight by a huge margin for Diaz. When the fight was over on Saturday at the Toyota Center, Malignaggi was right. Van Hoy's score was 118-110 in favor of Diaz, a score so bad that even Oscar De La Hoya, Diaz's promoter, threw the judge under the bus. The majority of the viewing audience saw Malignaggi as the winner. [details]

I agree alot of those jabs were hitting gloves and had little powerbehind them.. he did score it way way to wide tho

[JM1]

so he thinks that theres not much power on paulie's jab thats why hes not giving paulie some rds? ok

[catalinul]

He should forever shut up.He is a disgrace.

someone should kidnap this foo and hang him...

Well atleast he has a good point, while i do think Paulie deserved atleast a draw he wasnt doing anything to Juan Diaz, jab jab jab. It depends on the judge and how you score fights, this judge obviously was leaning more towards who landed the harder shots in the fight and the crowd might of had some influence.

So basically he judges rounds for the more powerful fighter. That's a headscratcher.

After judging 65 world title fights, you should be experienced enough to not let the crowd affect your scorecard.

Unbelievable. He didnt give Paulie roudns cause he didnt have power?! ARE YOU SERIOUS?! he needs to leave boxing ASAP! **** a decision he once gave Paulie, that was probably 6 years ago or so. Diaz's shots were hitting Paulies glvoes too or just missing....unbelievable.
