Why do fighters get blamed for Bad decisions?

[junior gong]

Simple.

It's because fans are already upset that a robbery has occurred, only for the fighter who just got the gift, to say something that only riles them up more.

I actually liked Bradley's response (his in the ring interview) as that was the right thing to say after the close fight. Hell even if a fighter state "I thought I won the fight", would be OK to say.

But the problem is that some fighters claim they "clearly won" or that "the fans/viewing public has no idea what they are talking about", is what riles people up even more and causes them to dislike a fighter.

case in point....a few days after the fight, Bradley was talking about how he dominated the fight etc etc..

That's what turns people off. If you get a gift.....please shut the hell up about it and don't try to lie to yourself and the public.

I can see this, but when a fight is close then surely its understandable that a fighter will believe he was the winner. Bradley's conduct since the fight has been pretty embarrasing though, so I take your point there.

Because people want a face to associate with their outrage, that face will happen to be whatever trainer/boxer/promoter they see as being the beneficiary of the robbery. I couldn't tell you what most of these prominent judges look like, they're more or less a list of names on fight night and subsequently just names on boxrec.

This is also true, but it makes no sense to blame the fighter. If you want to blame the promoter or the judges or both then thats fair enough, but when you hear crap like "Pac's gonna rob marquez again", its just beyond ******.

I agree the fighters not the one scoring the fight

Like others, I just don't like when the fighter that was awarded victory from a robbery plays it off like they won. I hate to mention anything negative about the guy, but it's like when Paul Williams knew damn well he lost the fight against Lara. He kept referencing his official win and refused to do the rematch. I can't stand that type of ****.
