115-113 x 2 - what fight were they watching?

[Boxingtech718v2]

I think the marked the 3rd round a 9-9 rd and gave froch 3 of the last 4 rounds.
But even the rounds Froch won could have easily gone to Ward.
I had it 9 rounds to 3 for Ward. I really expected a closer fight.
I think Froch was too big, to muscled up, and too slow to keep up.

they were probably watching the same fight me and mike haynes up there were watching.

ward didnt do ***** in the last 3rd of the fight aside from hold. and i'm not sure what he did in the first round that swept everyones scorecards on here.

and i don't think a lot of you guys appreciate bodypunching.

i have no issues with the 115-113 at all. neither did the other person i talk boxing with in real life. we both agreed it was a close and painful fight that wasn't as exciting as people on here seem to think it was.

i think a lot of people focus too much on the commentary and its blatantly obvious that showtime wants ward to be a superstar. he holds the entire way through ever since the miranda fight (maybe even against buchanan, not a memorable fight at all so i dunno for sure) and the showtime crew just talks about what a tough warrior he is.

The irony of the British judge havin the widest margin for Ward lol. Imagine if Froch would've won more round, the fight would've been ruled a MD, that would've been bull**** truly.

[Boxing Bob]

this a bunch of BS, this was a onesided fight. Anyone who gave Froch more than 3 rds is either biased or incompetant. At least the right guy won

[Njord777]

I was only able to really give Froch the 9th. That's it.

[DiegoFuego]

I honestly don't see how you could give Froch more than 1 round and even that round I don't think he won (round 9). That fight was a total wash.

[DiegoFuego]

Froch beats everyone at 168 not named Ward. Yes that means Bute & Anthony Dirrel too.

Even though Dirrell already outclassed him pretty badly?

[Hougigo]

I had it 8-4 Ward with Froch rounds barley going to Froch. I gave him the last 2 because it looked like Ward was trying to hug it out instead of fight. Honestly.... the constant clinching was starting to piss me off... specially the 12th.
Ward won pretty clearly though IMO and saw that one judge had Froch up through 5 rounds

[bojangles1987]

Seems likely those judges didn't want to appear as if they were robbing Froch since they were American and Canadian. I don't think they would have robbed Ward if the fight was closer, but those scores did worry me.

[Easy-E]

It's scary to think that idiot judges almost took this clear victory for Ward. Something needs to be done about the judging in these fights.
