    Judges are getting worse.

    The reason is that no one puts a stop to them that is why they keep on screwing fighters. Something drastic needs to be done to correct this.

    I still can't believe the Campillo - Cloud fight and the IBF not giving Campillo an immediate rematch. WTF is going on in the sport of boxing.

      I'd love to disagree and say something positive, but I can't. This is the worst I've seen in my life, maybe it was worse when the mafia was so ingrained in boxing but I wasn't there to see.

        The compubox is just a human clicking a button, a monkey would be better fitted for that job. I guess we have to go back to the 15 rounds championship fights.

          Judging is the same as always, just people are more connected so it gets talked about more.

          Judges sit at wierd angles compared to what people see on TV, so what they see can be totally different.

            Well even in the UFC where you have a dictatorship, still can't do anything about shltty judging.

            So don't expect it to get any better in boxing.

              This seriously worries me, most boxers train so hard just to be robbed by professional officials. What is the point of making fights when the fans know it's almost impossible for fighter B to win in fighter A's home.

                I can agree with this to an extent but c'mon, this doesn't explain how a fighter who is very clearly dominating (Don't care where your sitting) a fight get absurd scoring, it doesn't take sophisticated camera angles on an HD TV to see who is clearly dominating a fight such as in the case of Campillo/Cloud.

                  But there are so many complete robberies the last few years, to the point we know going in who will be robbed. Being ringside, those judges should have a better view and reach the same conclusion if it is so obvious to those on television.

                    I understand but if that is the problem they can easily fix the angles and place all the judges in a special booth that allows them to see the action clear.
