    Barker may very well have won the fight but this is fucking absurd. I seem to remember the same thing happening in the Degale vs. Groves fight. The judges decide not to score the final round correctly because it'll mean the "wrong" fighter wins; they score instead for the favourite or the fighter who they wrongly took rounds of previously. I imagine there's a lot of ******ed biases in scoring like this.

        Wow this is a joke.

        And that 1 round would have given him the win

          I gave the last round to Geale & had him winning by 2 points (6 rounds to 5 & 1 even).

          But the judges only agreed on six rounds (2 & 6 for Geale & 3, 7, 10 & 11 for Barker) so to say that the last round made a real difference is ignoring the other 5 rounds where they disagreed. And a bit silly.

          It was a close fight that could have gone either way. I think I gave some close rounds to Geale just to spite Jim ?What?......

            What a load of ****. People lost money because two of the judges liked one fighters storyline, and this was not some clear cut Barker victory no matter what rounds you gave him.

                1 of the judges who gave Barker the 12th scored the fight to Geale 114-113, so that is irrelevant.

                The other judge got it wrong then. However, Barker won it fair and square in my opinion.

                Close fight but Barker did enough to win it.

                      A bigger WTF is one of the those judges gave round 8 to Geale.
