Comments Thread For: BScene's 2011 Year End Awards: Robbery Of The Year

[#1Assassin]

theres gotta have been a bigger robbery than lara-williams. if you watch it on mute and score with your eyes and not your ears that was a close fight.

commentators didnt give williams credit for anything but he was landing good shots all night too. coming forward all night landing savage bodyshots and landing in combinations. i had lara winning but it was close, i wouldnt call it a robbery.

helenius-chisora, now that was a robbery. chisora must have had 8 or 9 huge rounds in that fight, rounds nobody should be able to score against him.

Mostly every professional in the sport of boxing has went on record to say JMM beat Manny the 3rd time and that fight is not mentioned on here?

its clear dat Pacquiao landed more punches and won the fight. ders no reason for boxingscene to include that fight.

^^^^
Oh I just realised that pro boxing was scored on number of punches landed only.....silly me.

Where is the Pac Marquez fight?

It may be my judgement but if they are putting in Sturm Macklin which I thought was pretty close then Pac Marquez should be nailed on. I don't think Macklin Sturm was an absolute shocker of a decision bearing in mind it was Germany (can't remember the cards though) Murray getting a draw against Sturm is a different story though.

Smith Simpson was pretty close (I had Simpson) but I think Simpsons little terrier style has never held much regard with judges as he's been on the back of a few stinkers.

I'm not going to comment on Alexander/Matthsse, Williams/Lara or the Chisora/Helenais fights as I've not seen them HOWEVER there is no way there could have been a worse refereeing performance or score card than in the Cox/Sai fight. I was disgusted. I know it can't make the top as it was a small fight but I'm hoping I never see such outrageous scoring and officiating ever again. I genuinely felt so sorry for Sai and felt ashamed of what I just watched. I know it's not really Cox's fault (ref should have stopped the fight)but I'll hate on him for the rest of his career for that. I've never seen so many low blows in a fight ever. Been a while since I seen it but I'm pretty sure they are well in double figure and maybe into the 20's! Shocking.

It's definitely a close fight, a lot of people went on record to say it was a draw or Manny won.

I don't buy all this GBP promotion bias. Of course *****s(brothas) and mexican fighters say Marquez won.

Funny I didnt see Khan/Peterson no where on that list. Give it Khan you lost. Freakin bum.

Agreed, and im Mexican. I had the Pac JMM III a draw. Its funny how all the Floyd enthusiast call it a robbery when it was close as can be.....Then again.....the *****s score fights differently when watching their rival opposed to anyone else. Its so easy to spot a ***** whos just a casual watcher and fan boy when they say compubox doesnt tell the whole story, but compubox told the whole story in why Floyd DOMINATED Oscar.

P.S. Love Punisher, but dang he got a Xmas gift early....one of the biggest BS calls in recent memory.

I thought Manny won the fight. The first time I watched the fight I thought it was a draw. It was closer than the experts thought coming in but Manny was backing Marquez up the whole time. Marquez landed the cleaner more effective punches but if you go round for round Manny won the fight. Now I definetly thought Marquez won the second fight.

I just didnt see Pac pull away to get the clear "W". At the same time....JMM didnt "GO GET IT", and left it in the hands of the judges. The fact that he did that, im thinking is why he wasnt persistent enough. Draw is what i scored it.

[bojangles1987]

Shouldn't even be a debate. Absolutely disgusting what happened to Lara.

[Bushbaby]

Punisher-Lara simply horrible robbery. But only a fight that boxing purest pay attention to.

Pacman-Marquez a world wide robbery where 90% of the viewing public, hardcore or otherwise call a robbery.

BS is full of crap sometimes. Their pfp rankings suck. Pacman remaining at #1? Dude lost to a lightweight and beat a big name stiff, absolutely nothing pfp worthy about that. Popularity contest, that's all that is.

It's time to move on. Pacman, Martinez, Floyd should all be lowered & guys like Ward dominating elite fighters, guys like Donaire need to capture top spots. And Marquez of course for boxing Pacman silly, having hbo restart polls and ****, gangsta stuff!!
