How the hell were those scores so close?!!!

[joesaiditstrue]

The official judges had it a draw going into the 12th with one judge having Berto ahead. Good thing it was stopped or the Haymon robbery would have occured.

if anybody on these forums wants to argue this, you're officially a ****ing ******ed.

al haymon BUYS JUDGES. PERIOD.

I thought it was funny how the SHO crew was saying that MAYBE Soto-Karass should only lose 10-9 in the knockdown round when he clearly dominated the rest of the round. Yet when Canelo fought Trout they were trying to give Trout 10-9 after being dropped and CLEARLY losing the rest of the round.

Maybe we just don't see the fights in the same way.

I agree, Showtime was pushing Berto all fight.

The scores where way to close also. Thankfully Soto got the KO.

[bojangles1987]

What were the scores? I didn't stick around for read outs.

105-103 cards for Berto and Soto-Karass and 104-104.

[JoeKidd]

This was some of the worst calling on a fight I have seen in all my years of watching the sport.

and then the questions from Jim Grey at the end about Karas being fortunate for the the shoulder injury and once he noticed it did he start taking over because of that.

I could tell Berto was going to lose this fight from the first round on.

You have to go with the flow and regard the commentary as comedy.

berto did win a few rounds in there, but soto karass carried the fight and did the damage.


berto's a tough guy, but he's limited and faded. he ought to think about retirement.

On a GBP event, never bet against their golden boy unless KO'd.

On a GBP event, never bet against their golden boy unless KO'd.

I think same applies for top rank and any other promoter running an event.

[HeroBando]

I think same applies for top rank and any other promoter running an event.

Except for Felix Sturm Promotions. Since he went solo, he can't get even very close fights going his way

Showtime judges and crew are disgraceful. Berto won 2 rounds, the 2nd and I think the 10th when he got the bull**** knockdown and still lost the rest of the round.

The scores were disgusting and everyone should be investigated. Thank God The ref stopped that fight prematurely or their would have been a robbery.

Andre Berto is an Al Haymon boxer.
