[cleaner147]

people used to say - go to Germany und u will get robbed. **** off.
this hometwon advantage is everywhere, jes also in the US, ****ers.

Im smelling the brutal Knockout. it tastes good.

People are acting as if Abraham is automatically going to get robbed.

However, if it's going against the rules, then it should be fixed.

If SE felt slighted by the Ward-Kessler situation, why haven't they done anything about it? Or will they soon?

[BattlingNelson]

thought they got the judges changed for that fight? I knew Ward had planned to have 3 hometown judges until Sautherland sorted it.

I cant remember for sure though.

They got two neutral judges, a hometown judge and Ward's next-door neighbor as ref.

Originally Goosen's puppets in the CSAC had appointed 4 officials from Oakland.

Whats the big deal? Its not like Abraham is going to out box him to a decision but get robbed in the end. Its either Dirrell clearly gives him a boxing lesson without getting caught in the process or Abraham stops him.

To be fair it has always been like that in boxing. Lot's of homecooking so the visiting promotor always has had to fight for what's right. One would have thought however, that given the international flavour and tournament-style with a strict set of rules, things would be different. Not so.

Of course we'll have to see how it pans out but this looks like a disgrace.

There is nothing to complain about.

Almost any time there's a fight in Texas it's Cole or Ramos. Like Natas said, the ref is often from the state the fight is in.

Plus, I don't see how anyone could really have a problem with this after Dirrell got a bull**** point deducted plus got robbed blind in Nottingham.

People can say "oh he fought like a *****" till their blue in the face. Doesn't matter. Dirrell did way more than Froch and won more rounds. End of story, that was a blatant robbery. You don't win rounds by pressing the action, you win rounds by landing punches.

Shaw should just stick by the rules and everything would be ok.

[Bennett]

yeah, if out-boxing and out-classing your opponent for 12 rounds is robbing yourself, then sure buddy!

----exactly!

Dirrell would have still been robbed. Nothing makes that OK.

2 wrongs doesn't make a right.

We're now at groupstage 2 so everything that was wrong in stage 1 should now be corrected. So it should be IMO.
