    Two of the judges gave Barker the 12th round

    Apologies if this has been posted already, but two of the judges for the Geale/Barker fight actually scored the 12th round for Barker even though he was hurt and didn't do much except backing up and then raising his hands at the end. This was probably Geale's second best round after the 6th round where he scored a knock down. If those two judges had properly scored the round, Geale would have retained his title. Here are the scorecards :

    Well then obviously they scored some rounds for Geale that should've went to Barker. Barker won the fight.

        Yeah the final round was a Geale round, I get the feeling because of Barkers previous performance in the other rounds they just wanted to give him the belt regardless, kind of like a gift round.

        ****** though.

          Well, that's absolutely absurd.

          Geale clearly won the 12th.

            I scored the 12th for Geale, but I still had Barker winning 114-113.

              Yeah but most rounds were close, the 12th round was not, it was a clear Geale round.

                shenanigans imo about round 12 especially for Judge Ortiz. Geale won the twelve i have seen that round 3 times and still cant see where Geale lost it.

                  Oh well, Barker won the fight. It was a close but clear decision.
