[PLEASE HELP] BoxingScene Agenda Exposed? Petition to replace Wilder with Fury
The good news, is that thanks to my own thread and possibly others, we now have updated fighter icons on the top tabs.
The bad news? There seems to either be a horrible mistake, or there was a deliberate BoxingScene agenda driven decision to add Wilder, a lesser fighter, a less popular fighter, a less significant fighter, and a non-champion, as opposed to the HW kingpin Tyson Fury.
Let's be clear, I don't have a problem with Wilder as a boxer, I actually like him, but let's use common sense here: If you are only adding one HW fighter to the tab, it has to be Fury. Heck if both were on the tabs, it wouldn't be as much of an issue, but it's inconsistent, and it's nonsensical. It's like if they replaced Floyd in the old set with someone like Devon Alexander. It just doesn't make any sense whatsoever.
My theory? BoxingScene staff have let their bias, and agenda show here. The only conceivable reason I could see for adding Wilder is that he is based out of the USA, and this (most likely) is a USA based site, but that's not good enough of a reason. In fact, it's pathetic.
Let me also remind you that I am not British, so there is no agenda from my part.
Let the people speak!
I say we use this unofficial petition to make things right.
BoxingScene / NSB has to maintain objectivity and be free of biases, or it will quickly lose credibility and respect, and as a long time member of this proud community, and what I consider the undisputed boxing site of the world, it's time to make a stand. A stand for what's right.
What say you!?
