    What's the point of watching boxing?

    117 111?

    Robbed the away fighter so badly with that score. It's become so common that the A side has already won on the cards before the bell rings

    What a joke this sport is

    I disagreed vehemently with the scoring in both the Aleem fight and this fight but I enjoyed the fights nonetheless. It is frustrating though to watch a fight and have see scores that defy logic.

    You watch the ore fight and whoever the network talks about the most will almost surely get the benefit of the doubt. It’s very frustrating.

      It was a good card with bad scorecards.

        I am tired of this sheeit myself. Now I believe Pacquiao has no chance vs Spence unless he stops him. And now I will stream instead of buying it. I will no longer watch either Charlo fight, both got robbery gifts. PBC does in house fights and pays judges. It's disgraceful to the sport.

          That's the thing though Dunn. I respect you a lot as a poster but let me bring your attention to this -

          This was objectively an excellent night of fights. Yet that score was so bad, it's washed the goodwill of that full card away. All everyone is speaking about is how terrible the cards were, how bad the score was, Castano was robbed etc.

          Bad scores aren't just bad scores anymore. They negate an entire nights worth of action. They ruin the credibility of the sport. People change sports watching this

            don't bother paying for anything man, our money ends up in the pockets of judges

            The underdog needs a knockout to get a draw and even a legend like Pacquiao, will likely have already lost on the cards before the bell rings

              Maybe we'll have to go back to the 19th century **** and have guys just keep fighting until someone gets KO'd, can't ever count on accurate and fair scorecards at this point. But even then, you'd still have to deal with the awful and corrupt refs

                I see your point. Instead of us talking about the card we’re all angry about the bs scorecard.

                1 terrible card from some clown ruined a great card for so many. Smdh!!!
