Anyone Else Feel Uneasy about the Scoring Change?

[AintGottaClue]

Do you have any idea of what you're talking about?

The middle score was the only one that needed to change to tip the score in Barrera's favor.

Why would they change all 3 when they only needed to change one?

You should get a clue before you start in with racist ignorant drivel.

if all 3 changed there scores it would show that it was a hard round to score, even if the 3rd judge scored round 12 for rocky but still had barerra wining changed it even, if this fight was a fix it wouldnt be as shady, guess the golden boy is new to this fix thing eh

Well the round by round says the fight was scored

115-113 for Juarez, 115-113 for Barrera, 114-114 a draw

and fightn3s reports the fight changed to:

115-114, 115-113 Barrera, 115-114 Juarez, so Barrera actually wins a split decision.

so two scores where changed no? heres the masterscorecard

thanks for the scorecard.

I thought when I first heard that the decision was changed that someone had went back and altered the scorecards. And, this scorecard with the clear changes in round 12 and to the total score just REALLY CONFIRMS that.

The only scorecard really at issue is the middle one. To show that it wasn't a mistake, you just need to look at BOTH the round 12 and the total. Both round 12 AND the total were changed, indicating to me that foul play was at work.

If it was just a scoring error, or an addition error the card would not look like it does. Obviously, round 12 originally had a "9" in it, and accordingly it was totaled up to "114". No mistake there. That was correct. The "114" in the total confirms that the "9" was correctly there.

So, the alleged "mistake" was not only in round 12, but in the total, too? I don't buy it.

It looks very clear that they went back and changed the "9" in round 12 to a "10" and then also had to re-total thereby changing the "114" to a "115". The fact that they had to change the "114" to a "115" just confirms that there was foul play.

Also remember what Juarez was saying after the fight about it being L.A. and Oscar's home town? Basically he was saying that he thought the judges had it in for him

[Bozo_no no]

That makes zero sense.

All they needed to do was change one round on one score card to change the result.

You're suggesting they take the time to blatently change all 3 cards makes no sense whatsover, and would be 3x as blatently obvious.

Think before you hiss out racist non sense.

heh yeah I know.

He considered it a victory.

I never email the people charge to ***** about ****ed up **** in boxing...I think this will be a first.

[Left2body]

I gotta watch this fight again to check on that.

This is really su****ious. The fact alone that I can see a 9 underneath that 10 in the middle card in Round 12 convinces me that they screwed Rocky.

I mean cmon. You know what a loss/draw does to Barrera's carreer at this stage? One, no match against Pac (well, he might be happy about that)and probably a high demand of rematch against Juarez (a fight he can certainly lose).

Yeah, very good point. But I think the big thing is loss of possible PPV dollars. I'm begining to believe less and less about the Don King factor in judging. I'm begining to think its a Network thing and not a promotor thing, because the commentators set this up pretty nicely for regular John Q. Public who was bombarded by how well Barrera was doing to more easily digest that the Original cards were tabulated incorrectly.

[moochi]

**** man,. looking at that master scorecard makes me think that this is a wwf scorecard.....look at the last round adjustments man!....the two scorecards seem to have been a 10-9 to rocky juarez, only to be changed to a 10 -10....the bottom calculations show that too!...so it seems the cards were presented well on the mic, but were changed later!!!

[DiegoFuego]

This is ****ed up. I honestly believe this is bull**** now that I've seen those cards. What the **** is going on?

[DiegoFuego]

who the **** scores even rounds? this is complete bull**** right here.

[Papa Ace]

a lot of people agreed, even the trainers and fighters themselves acknowledged the fight as a draw. hell it was FOTY mention in fact. the scorecard change really is a dumb-ass scenario. the match brought out the best in both warriors and a draw was enough justification that no man "clearly" emerged the winner. even if the scores say it was barrera's. the fight should have been a draw.
