Comments Thread For: Another Judging Controversy Brewing Before Lomachenko-Walters

[Synbad]

Boxing shooting itself in the foot again. Why can't these guys get the idea that to level the playing field 3 judges from different areas of the world? Stops home town cooking dead in it's tracks. SMDH!

Byrd & Lisa Giampa, IMO, are the 2 most inconsistent judges in Nevada & @ the evel w/Cynthia Ross & we know where she went.. it would be a smart move not 2put her in this fight...last thing needed is ruin the career of a fighter by a poor decision...

Walters will beat loma unless the judges robbed him . Bob arum wants Loma to win , obviously, but Walters will leave no doubt.

Hit and not be hit ; can not hit what you don't see .

Loma better go for the KO

I know that it's a sport at the end of the day, but I don't know, something just doesn't seem right about these two (or any two fighters) posing for a picture together like this before a head to head match up. I mean at least wait until after the fight. You guys are about to go to war for f**k's sake.

I mean a man should literally never put his arm around another mans waist either....and Walters has a weed hat on for crying out loud

Ha ha!! Yes! I've always said Adelaide is fkin atrocious at times. She was actually the one who got it right in the Hooker fight but that was an exception. As Carl said, "..but when she has bad nights, she's too far away from the score."

Hope to see the NSAC do SOMETHING pro-active.

Which makes her look corrupt, because she is REALLY bad when she's off. Then sometimes she'll have perfect scorecards. She was the only one with a good scorecard in the Alvarez-Khan fight, for example.

idk why they're pointing just her out when alot of them do a shit job

Why is there no official body to hold dodgy officiating to account? Boxing really needs a reset button & a reality check today. It needs to leave this 20th century mindset & be more global. MSG, Vegas, bright lights, history.. yes but at what cost when non US fighters aren't getting a fair shake.. Pac/Bradley, Kova/Ward, almost Calzaghe/Hopkins! Are just some examples.. Infrastructure needs to be more global now, the demographics are changing yet the sport is still US centric & people are getting sick of it. If that woman stiffs either of these men at the weekend i wlll personally start a petition & file it to the correct body (if i can fin it or if it exists) & lodge a complaint. Its peoples livelihoods they are responsible for.. Some of them are incompetent beyond belief.

She had the right score for Perez vs Hooker and Khan vs canelita. Those judges that had caseload ahead were ******ed.

It seems her fights typically score the right winner, which is what matters the most to me. I'm not familiar with her, but what other big controversial scoring has she done?

So, in reality, the issue here is that she scored the fight for Magdaleno and Top Rank is salty about it?

In the rest of the scores reported she also seemed to have the right winner on her cards (unless I missed something). So, what's the issue?
