Adalaide Byrd is the best judge in boxing

[dan_cov]

I always see comments about her being a bad judge but I've never known her to produce one bad scorecard.

She was the only judge to get the Abril fight right.
The only judge to get the Said Ouali vs Aydin fight correct.
She got the Mares vs Agbeko fight **** on.
I can see where she was coming from with B-Hop vs Calzaghe
Nothing crazy about that Trout vs Cotto fight either - Yes it was competitive but that doesn't mean it was a close fight. Trout won the rounds.

I've gone back 6-7 years and still can not find a scorecard I can honestly say is bad.

Maybe the people who think she is a bad judge could point out the bad calls she has made...

About the only judge I have faith in these days.

I didn't see that fight I don't believe. A bad call I take it?

All the judges have it real far apart. 118-110, 115-112 one way & the same the other way.

I think Stanley Christodoulou is better. Byrd is a competent judge, although I thought her Cotto-Trout scorecard was a bit lopsided.

Just a bit wide for my liking, she's usually pretty good to be fair. Here in UK we're blesed with that Dave Parris guy or whatever his name is, P4P worst referee/judge

Bump, would you like to retract this statement?
