I'm so frustrated with biased commentators

[StefanTosic]

I'm done with them. Shitty scordcards are nothing new, but man, looking back at how many times I used to watch a fight when I was younger and tell myself how terrible jugde would I be because I really thought I was crazy for scoring it differently than those so called experts. Just how many times my scordcards didn't match those of judges and TV show crew. I used to be so hard on myself, thinking about how I was blind to see the things those guys were seeing. I really thought I was crazy. Since then I learned how corrupted the boxing is and my frustration just became stronger because I'm still listening to the same fools knowing that they are shamefully playing with my mind.

I've been listening to Box Nation commentators tonight and they were making me sick to my stomach during the whole card. And I see many of you who watched it on HBO wrote the same about their commentators. Benavidez vs Shia was a shame, also they later ignored every single shot Postol landed on Bud, they just calmly kept talking as if it never happened and Postole landed some dangerous shots. I believe Box Nation had with them that Top Rank female commentator, man I wanted to kill her. She was ter-ri-ble!

This is the reason I started watching boxing streams on the languages I can't understand, whenever I can find them, or watch it with no sound. Too bad I didn't do it this time. Recently I started watching Thurman vs Porter fight on youtube and I stopped it after the first 4 rounds, I couldn't take it. Then couple of days ago I chose to watch it again, this time with no sound and I enjoyed it much better, plus I was able to score it the right way.

Thurman-Porter wasn't too bad imo. Most of the time HBO sucks.

You know Box Nation was using the Top Rank feed, right? What did you really expect to hear when you're listening to them commentate on their house fighter's card? Postol is co-promoted by Top Rank. Crawford is full Top Rank.

Thanks for explaining it to me, in fact I didn't understand it. I was confused with biased british guys and a ******ed girl who wasn't with them in studio but I knew she's from TR. It was very painful.

The commentators can sway your opinion of a fight so drastically if your not paying 100% attention they can distort 1 of you 2 senses when watching a fight

HBo is the worst and they know this and are able to sway the fight to the fighter they choose. Its borderline sickening. Sh.it I remember the Vargas / Bradley fight and they wanted Vargas to get the win to set up a Pac fight but Bradley was beating Vargas so bad that they didn't even talk about what was happening in the fight for like 7 rounds, just going off on tangents about irrelevent sh.it and telling story's that had nothing to do with the action in the ring just to make the fight seem closer then it was

I'll agree with the thread starter. If I miss a fight sometimes I'll catch it later on YouTube with a Russian broadcast and I'd rather listen to that then most of the English commentators

Crawford won almost everyone round after the 4th...I didn't give Postol any rounds beyond that point but maybe an argument can be made for a round or 2 at most. So what was so bad in your opinion? Postol barely landed any punches because he barely threw any punches and couldn't even up his game in the final round when he desperately needed a KO.

Well that would explain any bias people heard, then.

Lmfao I can relate to what you're saying I muted the main event fight after the third round I believe it was basically just a slurp-fest on one guy commentators struggle to give a good audio experience a lot of the times.

I think many are forced in their approach they can't really have much freedom to say or do what they want because I'm sure the promotion might get upset about it lol.

I've been telling all of you that Postol is an overrated bum, Crawford should've decapitated him in front of everybody and he would KO that bum at any moment if he wanted to. I don't even want to hear people praising that sucker anymore, Postol always been a bum and commentators were right

[Madison Boxing]

Nothing is worse than sky sports commentary when a british fighter is involved. Punches that the foreign fighter land dont even get remarked on, just get ignored.
