Who will side with their boxer?

Obviously, Goosen will side with Williams. End of story.

This isn't shocking to hear and I bet Don King felt Holyfield-Lewis was a draw also and Tito beat Oscar.

Although Goosen makes a lot of great points, and does actually makes sense with how your scorecard would be effected if you're alone sometimes.

I just think that in this fight, 1 judge could have been in the Moon, the other one in Mars, and the other one in Pluto, watching the fight on TV without commentary, and they would be blind to not see Lara won at least 9 rounds.

i didn't know that when you went to a live fight they played the hbo commentary over the P.A. ...no wonder that whole arena was booing. HBO RID US OF YOUR MIND CONTROLLLL!

I'm curious as to how much he paid the judges. Did he shortchange the one who scored it a draw I wonder?

[Foolkiller]

2 of the 3 Judges scored the 12th round a draw out of shame.
