Comments Thread For: Campbell Hatton Fortunate To Win Six Round Decision Over Martinez

[hardrider]

Martinez won this fight going away. He won at least five out of the six rounds and you could make the case that Martinez pitched a shutout. Hatton getting caught with uppercuts throughout the fright unable to make any adjustments. Typical hometown decision riding his father’s name to victory. Boxing corruption on full display.

Hate to say it but I thought Hatton lost that one.
I felt Martinez toyed with the young lad a bit, made him miss and picked him off with clean shots. The entire commentary and punditry team thought so too, even the ref looked embarrassed after his decision was announced.
I don't like it when I see clear home cooking elsewhere, so can't ignore it in my own country either - this needs to get stamped out!
Credit to Hatton though, he never stopped trying and seemed disappointed in himself too - without saying openly that he felt he lost.

Hatton son has nothing.

What a disgraceful decision. The Sky commentators were so bias towards Hatton until their colleagues scorecard was revealed half way through. Then they changed their tune.

The referee must have had a few quid on Hatton to win.

I noticed that aswell, the commentary team were implying it was a close fight until that ringside guy revealed his card then they finally acknowledged that Martinez was winning comfortably lol.

Dammit.
Usyk is getting robbed unless he ko's AJ.

As a Brit, I feel like I need to apologise to the entire world for that disgusting, obvious robbery. Campbell Hatton didn't win a single round in that fight. Some money will be changing hands between fast Eddie and that referee. Actually it probably already had. Corruption like this is ruining boxing.

Shameless robbery. They dont even need to try to hide it. Its just accepted.

[Diabolik]

A joke and such an obvious fix, they should be ashamed.

Absolute disgrace of a decision. I backed Martinez to win at 8-1 midway through the third round (yes, the bookies were that slow to adjust odds or knew the fix was in), then had a bit more at end of round 4 on a draw, figuring they'd try to save face for Hatton and give him a controversial draw. What a joke of a sport at times. Eddie Hearn's bluster about his fighters and cards makes my piss boil. C'mon Usyk! Would love to see him stop Joshua just to see the look on Hearn's face.
