    So how does a Showtime employee get assigned to judge a fight.....

    involving a Showtime fighter?

    How could Steve Weisfeld's conflict of interest not have been OBVIOUS to the Ohio commission? And he unsurprisingly turns in a scorecard with the widest margin (7-3) for the Showtime fighter?

    Boxing doesnt even try to hide its corruption / incompetence anymore. And people wonder why its a fringe sport......

          Same way Julie Lederman judges for HBO while her biased father influences the audience with his scorecards.
          Go watch the mismatches on HBO. Yall haters complain about everything. Its simple DONT WATCH. GO watch Canelo VS tomato cans. PBC is straight up killing HBO

            Boxers should know not to fight on a Mayweather promotions card unless you plan to win by KO

            Granados got ****ed in a way boxing hasn't seen since Floyd/Marquez

              Steve Weisfeld has also scored fights for HBO. He returned to judging fights in 2015. Are you saying he is no longer allowed to judge the biggest fights in boxing (those that air on HBO and SHO) because he has at one time worked for HBO and SHO? It's interesting that you had nothing to say when he was judging fights for HBO PPVs last year. Maybe it is you who has an agenda?

                  Very true.

                  On the weight, the referee who let Broner repeatedly hold, by the judges, and by the biased commentators like Steve Farhood.
