Where did you stream

There is very little market for Cuban fighters, Cuban in Miami do not attend to boxing cards, or buy PPV. This is not an excuse to rob Cuban fighters, but that is what marketing does to boxing. Rios sells more than Abril, so Arum would not have Abril winning unless he knocks Rios out. Gamboa was going to run the same fate with JM López unless he knocked him out because López generates more sales than Gamboa. Lara vs. Williams was the same thing. It is disgusting to see how business people, who care nothing about boxing s.crew the sport we love.

Enough is enough!! This has to stop!!!! Time boxing fans stood up and done something!! Boycott top rank!!!

I feel your passion for this sport that has stood the test of time, and has marked the test of TIMES similar to baseball, that we diehards call the Sweet Science. And like you, I agree, this ***** has got to end. Even the judge that got it right, at 117-111 for Abril, was still on the low end of a correct call. Because even a 6 point win for Abril was not an unbiased, fair & objective decision. This was a 9 rds to 2, with maybe 1 rd even, Unanimous Decision win for Abril. Wasn't even close. Bam Bam got taken to school but the politics of his promotional company/Arum availed him of the robbery. It's moments like this when I wish that I could just be satisfied with sports like football and basketball and not get so emotionally invested/vested in the hand-to-hand combat of Boxing. Ignorance would be bliss in that regard!

I could smell it coming a mile away. Started getting excited for an Abril upset around round 8 and then I realized this had "Bob Arum insurance policy" written all over it. Hope they either overturn the decision or give Abril an immediete rematch. Both are unlikely!

Boycott Bob

Stop accepting these horrible decisions!! Refusing to purchase dud/fixed fights is the only way to make promoters take notice. Put "Boycott Bob" as the title to all your posts, join the movement, spread the message.
