British Boxing is the most corrupt scene in all of sport

[IronDanHamza]

Weebler, please. Please. Stop it. Foreign/non-house fighters coming to England are getting stiffed fight after fight after fight. All the scenes are corrupt - the British one is the absolute worst. It is head and shoulders above everywhere else. That's good you found some examples - I just gave you blatant CONSECUTIVE examples. People predicted BEFORE the fight that something ****** would happen.

Stop being in denial about this.

Ward must be ******ed to even contemplate ever coming here, even for the crown ***els.

If Howard Foster or Ian John Lewis are reffing a fight it's safe to bet some bull**** is going to happen. No matter who the fighter is.

Like I said, It's more incompetence than it is corruption IMO.

Rios-Abril, Alexander-Kotelnik, Alexander-Matthysse, Williams-Lara, Bradley-pacqiaou, cloud-campillo. I no what your saying and your right, nothing controversial ever happens in America.

Froch vs Dirrell scorecards

Not just the scorecards but also the blatant fouls he got away with.

This all will make it hard to get fighters to go to the UK but a fighter can get screwed anywhere.

So is any fighter going to Oakland to get hugged and headbutted, ask Mikkel Kessler. How about Matthysse get low-blowed all night? Campillo getting robbed against Cloud? Half the big-name fighters across the pond getting caught being on steroids? Smoger hugging and kissing B-Hop while pushing and punishing Murat and pushing him in the face? Cortez allowing all of sorts of ish to go on? Beltran being robbed twice in the US? Dirty test results being "lost"? Fights allowed to go ahead after dirty test results? Injured fighters having to get their own cab to hospital? A fight biting an opponent's ear off? Provodnikov not getting the second k/d called? Al Haymon judges? PEDerson keeping his title after being caught dirty v Khan? The list goes on and on, the ish never ends.

It's boxing's problem, no matter where the fights take place. No one likes their fighters travelling to the 'other' place not because it's any less fair, but because they get done to them the same things they do to others. It's a corrupt and unhealthy sport, it is what it is.

How are they examples of corruption?

You're acting as though all the officials and judges are british. They're not in world title fights. The truth is judges can often be swayed by the reaction of the crowed to what is being seen before them. It's group mentality which is hard to shake. When everyone else is seeing one thing that they want to see, it's more difficult for an individual to go against that.

We all know british fans are the most passionate in the world. I think this has a big thing to do with it. Look at when hatton fought Floyd in America, how many rounds Harold letterman gave him when really Floyd was in complete control.

Okay, but the problem is majority of big boxing events happen on American soil, so there's bound to be some problems. Whenever a big fight happens in Britain it seems like something very shady is happening. Percentage wise it has to be at the very top for strange or bad things happening.

Not just the scorecards but also the blatant fouls he got away with.

Did you see the amount of **** he got away with last night? IMO if was worse then the robbery in Nottingham.

[iron mike tyson]

No matter what country you are in the in house fighter gets all the 50/50 calls Americanism just as bad as anywhere.

Two Ricky hatton fights spring to mind , Castillo and mayweather , same venue same country same referee the difference is on the show hatton was the draw cortez let's him gets away with murder and when he was the b side pulls him up on everything that was fine 6 months ago

I agree that there is certainly corruption, and I think the Froch/Groves fight was more an example of a ref that was given the word to maybe help a little and give Froch the advantage in any tough situation, or just stop it in favour of Froch absurdly.

However, I do think that a large amount of it in Britain is, as Iron says, purely incompetence on a very high level.

It's pretty similar here at times, and everywhere if we be honest.
