I really don't think this decision was due to incompetence though as Lederman suggested. I can't stand when my friends say that the whole sport of boxing is fixed, but, I'm also not so naiive not to think that SOME fights do get fixed from time to time. I really think the fix was in tonight.Comment

If you looked at his round by round scorecards, he has the fight as a draw when you tally it up. At one point he had 4-3 for Paul Williams but then backtracked and changed the score to 5-3 Lara when it became obvious how much Lara was taxing William's ass.Comment

How was this decision bought? And by whom?
Who is connected with Paul Williams? Goosen. Al Haymon. Others? Anyone connected with Paul Williams at the managerial level needs to be checked out. The "judges" need to stand before a commission panel and get cross-examined with the use of the fight video, just so they can explain what they thought they saw.
What was the betting like on this fight? Who made money?
Each week it seems like there is another hometown decision, each worse than the next. Boxers need to do a little more Brandon Rios action and just knock the piss out of there opponents and not level it up to the judges.Comment
