Steve Farhood's score cards a joke

[Beercules]

Anyone remember when Eli Seckbach had a scorecard on HBO? Had Brandon Rios winning every round despite clearly losing. That was the worst ever.

The Pacquiao fight?

Yeah I vaguely remember that. Was it the Abril fight?

It's probably quite difficult to have your scorecards on live TV all the time and never look ridiculous.

Yes, I remember that. I think Rick Reeno was scoring the fight as well

I can't remember if it was the Abril fight or if it was Alvarado. You remember BG?

didnt know about that

Depends on the fighters usually.

Porter-Brook was a clear example; he had Brook with a solid lead and then began scoring clear Brook rounds (the clearest rounds of the whole fight) for Porter to make it look closer and make a potential robbery seem less blatant.

He did the same last night for Dirrell.

It was the Rios-Acosta fight:

http://boxrec.com/media/index.php?title=Fight:1564222

Press row scores: Steve Kim: 85-84 for Rios, Rick Reeno: 85-84 for Acosta, Elie Seckbach: 88-82 for Rios

Seckbach was seeing a much different fight than anyone else

I think Farhood is usually pretty good - i feel comfortable with his scores because I know he watches a lot of small fights than most don't give a crap about and is usually spot on. IF he's off a little in a notable fight it's whatever, just a scorecard that I don't agree with. Same thing with people here - I might disagree with some people hre but at least I know most of you are watching fights, know how to score, etc. etc I'm fine with it

It's not like Lederman's are much better, or Weisfeld's who's even worse. I'm sure most of the time they just listen to the commentators and try to follow the trend.
