Steve Cunningham got robbed. His upset wife, Livvy, just said "He works too hard for this." No one on press row scored it for TA

The card that was corrected was actually 115-112 Adamek. Even worse than 115-113. #boxing

Not sure what Cunningham coulda done short of KO. Woeful decision & NBC cuts off, no interviews. Brutal. Miserable end all around. #boxing

Adamek by split is not good at all. Ruins the end of a great fight on NBC. @Main_Events #boxing

I think bad decisions are ruining boxing. It does no good for the fighters , the sport or the public.

The people I had watching hadn't watched boxing in years, and probably won't care again after this. I convinced them to watch this, and this happens.

Cunningham boxed his ears off. That was a horrible decision.

That was boxing 101. Those judges should be publicly executed.

Boxing returning to NBC should have been a happy day for the sport. Now we get another black eye on national television.

When will the powers that be realize robberies are why people hate boxing and they are bad for business? It's beetle headed

It's vey simple. The powers that be don't give a **** about boxing. They couldn't give a flying **** about the fighters, fans and boxing itself. They care about one thing; short term monetary gain.

That's why it keeps happening. Because they don't care about a fighters life, future, dreams and aspirations nor do they care about keeping boxing alive. They give the decision to the guy that can make them more money in the short term, despite ruining the sport forever in the long term.

[I Love Jesus!]

Because Promoters/Advisors pay commisions millions of dollars?

And if a Judge wants to get constant fights with certain promoters they will cater them, because they make $100 a night or something like if they doing a local card, so if they wanna keep on doing big fights they gotta "lean"

Oh well thanks for clearing that up. You know I've been in boxing my whole life as a fighter trainer and even a few small promotions and I never knew why the judges robbed fighters.................. ANYWAY

the point I was making was it's good for the day but horrible for business over all

It's very simple. The powers that be don't give a **** about boxing. They couldn't give a flying **** about the fighters, fans and boxing itself. They care about one thing; short term monetary gain.

so they act like the federal government...okay I agree

lets hope those same people were tweeting with the same outrage at the REAL robberies this year; because a W by Adamek is not nearly as bad as those other ones.....not even close. This was a close fight, it could of gone either way, period. Lets be real here, most people who are so dead-set on this being some huuugee robbery is because they expected USS to get KO'd, and the fact that he boxed well and lasted all 12 is blinding people. And I say that because all of those people scored it 118-110 for Steve. You dont win by 8 rounds without dominating a fight, and if you believe Steve dominated this fight, you're just as delusional as the judge who scored it 116-112 for Adamek...... This fight was a toss up and almost every round could of went either way, and a draw would of been the best outcome. IMO.

Well there goes boxing on NBC

Poor USS. His time is running out and now he's getting screwed. How many more gifts will Adamek get? I felt he lost to Chambers too. I like Adamek but these decisions are making me dislike him a lot.

I too thought Adamek lost to Chambers (who pretty much fought 1 handed.) But that one was a little closer than today.
