    Why? Because the judges, sitting at different sides of the ring, cannot see the action clearly when the boxers are a distance away from them, in the far corner, or other side of the ring, on the ropes.

    I covered a tournament at Emperors Palace in S.Africa, next to the photographers, near the judges. I couldn't see everything when the fighters were at the other end, couldn't see which punches, if any, landed cleanly.
    That's even worse if looking at both ring and video. Cause that would only make sense if all 3 judges look at the ring and tv same time or they can be judging different v***s

    More judges is a better idea.

        Exactly. He has a middleweight "champ" who woke up one morning next to the belt and hasn't defended it in nearly 3 years... How about we deal with that "controversy" first?

          Do even Fury fans think this is going to happen in time? Why not just set a more reasonable date from the get go to allow the damned thing to heal??

            My ****** ass expected this to have something to do with belts and the WBC finally doing something good in regards to belts.

            This is about adding a few more judges? Do it or don't, idgaf.

            Fans don't even try to see things from the judges POV and cry robbery even after one sided beat downs. It's ****ing absurd to try to appease us. That said, adding judges can't hurt I don't think.

              Had he not fughed around beforehand he probably would get a fair shake but knowing he’s a jerk off doesn’t help and I’m sure his excellency read the play also

                  I think you're closer to being correct than those who cite elaborate conspiracies. A combination of incompetence and having a poor view are more likely explanations.

                  The FBI investigated Eugenia Williams after Lewis - Holyfield 1 and found nothing. I mean, she scored round 5 to Holyfield - no corrupt judge would be ****** enough to do that.

                    I think he's more publicity hungry than anything. He likes to think he's the president of boxing rather than just of a crooked sanctioning body.
