    But why is Burt A. Clements bad? was he a shady biased judge or something?
    I will tell you some examples...

    After Maidana vs Floyd I, Showtime's expert commentator Paulie Malignaggi said about Burt A. Clements and Dave Moretto that their scorecards were so biased that "they were probably watching something else". He said they were sitting so close to the ring and still scoring the fight as if they had been sitting in the nosebleed seats so "what is their problem?". Al Bernstein also said that Burt A. Clements' scorecard was impossible to understand. And now both Burt A. Clements and Dave Moretto are going to be judging Floyd's match again next week.

    And in Maidana vs Floyd II, Al Bernstein said about Kenny Bayless' biased refereeing, with him constantly breaking the fighters up without any acceptable reason that "it's just not appropriate". Paulie Malignaggi also agreed that Kenny Bayless was far too biased in Floyd's favor. And now Kenny Bayless is going to referee Floyd's match again next week.

    Les Moonves was supposed to protect the fight from biased refereeing and judging, but since he failed to do that many will probably cancel their subscription to Showtime.

      They should have a package where you get all the boxing. They have football and basketball packages but to get boxng you have to buy several packages and get a lot of channels you never watch.

        There are so few major boxing matches that it would be simply impossible to have a package dedicated to first run fights. There simply are not enough fights to drive such a package compared to something like NHL hockey with 30 teams who play 82 games per season per team. Or baseball with 30 teams who play 162 games per season.

          You don't like boxing no more? And they still got Banshee & Ray Donovan which are my guilty pleasures of TV.

              So Paulie was upset cuz he felt the Maidana fights were a lot closer and the judges made the scores to wide for FLoyd?

              Doesn't seem like Paulie he's a Floyd nut rider

                I never had it...For What? HBO is adding a Netflix type of service online so that network will soon get canceled as well.

                The future is in Streaming and providing Contents with APPS and Eventually Streaming Live Events on APPS. So Boxing need to catch up, UFC is way ahead of them when it comes to doing the Apps and Providing PPV on youtube as well as having Apps on XBOX One and PS4, even the WWE is ahead of Boxing
