Comments Thread For: Stolen valor? Robson Conceicao outclassed by O'Shaquie Foster, wins anyway

[SteveM]

Fosters trash. Just another Tevin Farner clone.

Is that you Robson?

[SteveM]

Jesus. Yeah Foster won but at this point how many of these boring technical fights are we gonna see. When the fight is so awful that you don't care about the robbery it is pathetic.

Then we've got Shakur beating up a B level guy and still too timid to go for the stoppage.

Boxing is getting to the point of most guys just fighting to not get hit at all costs, rather than trying to hurt the opponent. No one wants to watch Olympic boxing. The sport is just turning into 90% trash.

Then pick your fights more carefully and watch more - try following Nick Ball and Inoue, Tim Tzysu and Beterbiev, .... and loads more

Whenever a boxer gets robbed/hard done by in a high profile fight (R.C against ped failure Oscar and overweight Shakur) then for some reason, at some point, the 'system' tries to make amends. and compensate in favour for that fighter - but in so doing, they often rob a third fighter - O'Shaquie is the guy getting fuqqed here

happened before but to a lesser extent with Ryder - got hard done by against Callum Smith then got a gift against Jacobs

Don't forget the biggest robbery for Robson's career title fights, the "draw" against Navarette.

I hadn't forgotten I just mentioned the first because he wasn't fighting on a level playing field - against a ped user and an overweight fighter. There should be a rematch for Foster and Conceicao but who's going to watch/pay for it? I'm sure Foster would do it for nothing behind closed doors if necessary bur Conceicao won't.

I don't track who promotes what boxer so doubt if it is realistic in any way, but if in a magical world where I was able to control the matchmaking then Robson and Navarette will rematch first (this time as an unification match) while Foster fights either Cacace or Roach in the meantime, and the winners fight eachother again as a three belt unification.

Boxing always find away to F up and good event

Foster got Bobbed. This was an insane robbery.

The winner of this fight gets the winner of my boy Navrette’s next fight. Should Navarette win as expected, the rematch with Conseciao should be a must see given how the last fight ended.

Foster was on a 3 fight deal so he might have beaten Navarette, becoming a unified champ and free agent.

Most undeserved title win in a while. Pac=Duran where is your outrage?

[Phase III]

Yes Foster won. But, fighters like Foster, Shakur, and Farmer are painful to watch. Their safety first style while taking no risk is awful to watch. I get it, the point is to hit and not get hit, but as a viewer, you also want to be entertained. Who in the world would want to pay to see these fighters in a PPV fight hitting slow rollers off the end of the bat? Not me!

Robson’s trash, one dimensional. And continues getting title fights even though he’s done nothing to deserve it. Foster on the other hand has always been a feather fisted paper champion who doesn’t throw enough punches for being a “technician.” Foster also clearly lost to Nova in his last fight and was gifted a decision. Foster fights just like Tevin Farmer, backpedals, doesn’t throw enough punches and lulls the audience to sleep.

[Phase III]

Was Bob Arum at the fight? If he was, how did he not get into the ring and complain about the Foster judging? Bon got into the ring and vowed to never let an American fighter fight in British soil after the Jack Catterall was rightly given a decision against Josh Taylor in their rematch. The Conceicao decision was a million times worse, yet Bob didn’t or hasn’t said a word.
