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

[dan_cov]

How can people have a go at the judges then sit there & say they only gave Froch 1 round in like round 9?

Froch came out like a tornado & clearly took majority of the latter rounds as Ward was starting to fade.


I gave Froch 4 rounds.

[The Hammer]

Disgraceful scorecards,i gave Froch two rounds,you could give him 3 at a push.He didnt win 5 rounds,its not even debatable

I notice you were rooting against your countryman.

8-4 Ward. Froch won a couple rounds early. I don't know what the Showtime commentators were watching personally...

[The Hammer]

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.

This ^^^^^^.

The very biased Showtime commentary was making Ward out to be really dominating, but he wasn't.

I scored it 116-112 for Ward, I can see why the two judges scored it 115-113.

Showtime commentators especially Al Bernstein are extremely pro-American and biased against foreign boxers.

Credit to some of the UK commentators such as Jim Watt, they are capable of calling fights more objectively!

Most I gave Froch was 2 rounds, that's it.

[IronDanHamza]

when i watched it live i had basically the same numbers in my head

i dont know what the hell the majority of you were watching, just shows you lot just dont know how to score fights

Pretty much everyone in the Boxing community had the Scores much wider.

The entire British broadcast had it very wide. And described the scoring of the two judges as a 'disgrace'.

The fight was blatently lopsided.

[Battle*Hardened]

Funny thing is, I said to myself that was the best score Froch could have gotten. I think I had it 116-112, but there was another rd I could have pictured the judges giving him.

I gave him 3.7.11.12 I think.

[Libido Sanchez]

116-112 Ward but to be honest I wanted Froch to win so 117-111 is probably my true score. The championship rounds were pretty lackluster. Ward seemed to be the more gassed out of the two but didn't let Froch capitalize.

[IronDanHamza]

Hence your 120-108 idea.....

Froch won rounds 1, 3, and 10-12. It amazes me how Ward can rub the crack of his azz across his fans' lips and they score any round that he doesn't get knocked down in for him.

You gave Froch 1,3 10 11 and 12? What?

Round 5 and 9 were somewhat close rounds, could have been given to Froch.

So you're saying Froch could argubaly have won?

This **** in unbelievable.

8-4 Ward. Froch won a couple rounds early. I don't know what the Showtime commentators were watching personally...

I don't know what you were watching if you gave two early rounds to Froch.
