Why are brits so naive??

[redmish]

All 3 judges were American. Why are you making this about the brits? You Americans have to start accepting that there are close fights. It's round by round not damage caused. Watch again with them rules and you will see a very close fight. Although I did think jack won by one point.

i agree. in fact, you can score for the defense. hardly anyone does.

No, i guess people/judges would more often if the sport was called defending.. but it's called boxing.

to hit and NOT be hit.

I don't understand how you have reached the conclusion that Brits are naive. Your title suggests that you think all Brits across the board are naive.

I had Jack winning in this one due to the late knockdown

not at all.. what drove me wild is how brits at 5 ****in am said degale won....

A glove punch is a BLOCK you can't score points on that..

Because admitting defeat is hard for some, its bias.
Badou Jack controlled this fight it was easy to score for me the knockdown in the 12th put the fight completely far away from DeGale.

Face of a winner

I had it scored a draw. 6 rounds each. DeGale took the first 3 and then 9/10/11.

Jack caused much more damage though and won his rounds more convincingly but they're still 10-9 rounds. Some people just remember the aggression and damaged caused and forget it's scored round by round. If we scored from emotion and getting our judgement skewed because a guy is getting beaten up then we could say Maidana won the first Mayweather fight, but he didn't because Floyd managed to just win enough rounds but Floyd took all the punishment in that fight.

That's basically how i see this one. DeGale did win 6 rounds but if there HAD to be a winner, i'd say Jack would deserve it.

Exactly how I feel.... a lot of these guys screaming robbery didn't even score the fight round by round but come on here saying they "feel" Jack definitely won, he didn't but he did cause more damage and win his rounds more decisively.

While Degale's punches were mostly blocked they were fast and flashy therefore more effective than the ones that Jack was landing on his face , simple really
