Comments Thread For: Andres Cortes Somehow Snatches a Win Away From Abraham Nova

[Sid-Knee]

I think you mean, the judges yet again robbed a fighter to benefit a Mexican or Mexican American. You know, like it always happens?

[Sid-Knee]

Funny how Bob called a non robbery a robbery. But never do you hear him say anything for the mass of robberies that go on at TopRank.

htf did Moretti have round 9 for cortes? I mean anyone on the boxingscene comment sections could score that rd correctly. and there alot of total dipsticks on here lol. you can't watch as many fights as moretti and truly be that dumb. he corrupt 100%

Someone paid for this one. Nova outworked him, was the aggressor most of the fight and he landed some huge shots. Cortes had some moments but he obviously lost.

I think Nova has lost his shine with the two previous losses and so Bob is now turning him into so much fodder. Nova is solid but is never going to beat the top guys. But he doesn't deserve to be robbed like this.

moretti at it again as well smh. same ppl, same corrupt crap. crazy how over in Saudi the judges get all the close fights scored correctly. but in Vegas it's bad most of time.

Las Vegas, Bob Arum ,Top Rank equals paid off crooked judges !!!Not the first time ppl.!!!

Nova won that fight. I'm so sick and tired of judges screwing over fighters and stealing their futures. It's unconscionable. I don't know how they live with themselves after basically stealing a future from a man who worked incredibly hard for it for a lifetime. How many millions of dollars in potential earnings have they robbed Nova of ? There's a huge difference between a contenders paycheck and a Champions. I couldn't do that to someone.

Reason why is cause the judges are not put under scrutiny
Just another black mark on boxing
Where are all boxing fans , the same ones who biatch about everything to do with the sport but not a sound here
Why cause it wasn’t a big enough fight to make noise but Nova’s career can be destroyed by these same judges

Yes, this is something you see from Top Rank quite a bit...they are quick on the trigger to jettison a fighter if they dont think it will pan out. Not to go off on a tangent but I wonder if they are throwing Big Baby Anderson in to the deep waters with Bakole to see if it's worthwhile to continue on with him.

I think that is exactly what they are doing. If he fails the test he gets cut from the roster. He's becoming a liability and if he's not ready now he won't ever be ready.

I get what your saying but I think Big Baby is the wrong example
With all the bullchit from him as of recent times and the fact he’s been fighting stepping stones since 2021 , time has come to put or shut up
He’s becoming harder and harder to market in every sense of the word
Plus his comments about just making money and not showing the sport any kind of love is a hard sell for anyone
Top Rank playing its hand , win and we’ll invest
Just my two cents

Watched it in France, the french commentators were in agreement with the decision. I was watching the fight and, even if the numbers clearly favored Nova, for me as a simple watcher it was a bit of a surprise because the overall impression was that Cortes was slightly over Nova. It was close in many rounds, and it was not very pleasant to watch (both boxers having thei dirty moments), but I have seen far worse robberies, and I am surprised there are so many calls for "fixed bouts" and unfair decisions anytime a boxer loses a close fight.
