If Bernard loses......

[Solo322]

Fuego I was being sarcastic about scoring all of those even rounds but you are young and I did not expect you to get that.

In terms of scoring even rounds this has been a big debate topic for judges and it seems that there are many different opinions...some judges like Glenn Hamada refuse to score a round even, other judges regualrly score rounds even.

On HBO HArold will never score a round even and Merchant usually in a close fight always scores a round even.

I myslef dont mind an even round, especially in the first when fighters are feeling each other out shadow boxing each other, you cant get carried away with even rounds and if at all possible you need to declare a winner but I hate giving the first round to a guy when he does nothing.

great point, scap, about even rounds. I noticed that too. I'm with Harold Lederman 90 percent of the time in his judging. It's hard for me to score even rounds because of what diegofuego said, it really screws up the decision if it comes down to the wire.

Fuego's young, but both harold and larry are old boxing viewers and they differ a lot in their judging. I think larry just looks for different things.

"I'm still picking Hopkins to win on points, but I wouldn't be surprised if the fight went the way of Taylor."



prboxer.....


Transparent, bro'.
That's the kind of pick (or non-pick) someone makes to cover their ass.

...basically....you think Hopkins will win, but you threw that other part in there so, should he lose, you can come on here & say "I told you so".
You're doing what I've seen so many others on forums do.

Jabs, I said exactly what I meant, I believe Hopkins is going to win on points (an SD, probably) because the close rounds will be scored in his favor. I want Taylor to win, yes, but I won't be the one on here saying "I told you so!" because I'm not saying he will win. All I'm saying is that, if he wins, I won't only not be surprised, I'll be happy. If Nard wins I'll be right, LOL.

I see a close fight, that's all. It's as close to a pick-em fight as I've ever seen Nard in but I believe his reputation will earn him the win, even if he doesn't actually fight to the victory.

Emmanuel is trippin, but as far as his legacy, i agree.. if he gets Knocked out, yea, it will drop him in the rankings. but he he loses a close deciscion, gets a rematch, and then knocks taylor out, thats the only way i see redemption if he loses..

[sonofisis]

oh, i forgot to mention, that there is no "If" anyway, Taylor can't win..
