Comments Thread For: Judging The Judges: Smith-Vlasov Scorecard Analysis

[_Rexy_]

Vlasov outboxed the **** outta Smith for the good chunk of the fight. Smith just won the last 3 rounds convincingly.

Then I will have to score it and report back lol

Most People Don't know S_it about boxing, this is everything that's wrong with the sport, same old corruption that's been happening for years! Joe Smith basic and is a walking punching bag with no rhythm whatsoever! This makes Caleb Plant look like the greatest white fighter to ever live; really! Racist ass America, the Russian whipped his ass clean.

joe smith needs to stop swinging wildly like wilder

so many missed punches and wasted energy

stick with the jab, stick and move

I had fallen asleep, so I'll likely watch it later, but people screaming robbery over a 115-113 MD is pretty odd (even though its a usual occurrence on here.) Swing rounds happen.

The fight was competitive but there weren't many swing rounds, lots of Vlasov's rounds were clear. Nobody should be able to find a way to score 6 rounds for Smith, let alone 7

Ahhh, kind of like the Canelo/Jacobs bout them? I think I had it 7-5 Canelo (don’t quote me) but I remember thinking that each round won was a clear win. No real debate.

Yes, there were maybe 1 or 2 rounds that could have gone either way and I think I split them, even if you give both to Smith it should only have been 5 rounds. Vlasov boxed the hell out of Smith for the majority of the first 10 rounds and pieced him up until Smith took the final 2

Not much controversy here. I scored it a draw. Vlasov was ahead 6-4 on my card until he faded badly in 11 and 12. No robbery at all. Vlasov made this fight harder than it needed to be by neglecting the body. Would love a rematch, but we all know Bob wants to see the white Main Street American vs. the Russian.

[BlackR0bbb]

Both guys get wrecked by Beterbiev a rematch is better for both fighters.

My thoughts exactly. I also find it odd how everyone is crying robbery when it was close throughout and Vlasov clearly faded in 11 and 12.

[buge]

I had it a draw, with 2 close rounds that I split between the two. 114-114 or 115-113 either way was fine.

Watching this fight again now on mute. I've only given Smith one of the first 6 rounds. Draw, 115-113 either way is an ok score. 8-4 Vlasov isn't out of the question either. 116-112 is my score. Rounds 4, 7, 11, and 12 for Smith.
