Wait, they just said one of the judges got sick and left in the middle of that Fight? WTF? So how did they handle his card for the rest of the fight???

Wait, what happened? Sorry I missed The Fights Last Night. What was this all about?

Douglas got "GOT" by them judges... Edner received a true gift in its purest form.

I'm still not quite sure. I got home and turned it on when the fight had just ended. All 3 cards were for De Alba, one wide and two close and then the announcers said something about one of the judges "falling ill" and leaving in the middle of the fight. Unfortunately I didn't see what actually happened and haven't heard anything else about it. I'm just as curious to find out what the hell happened and how they continued scoring one of the cards.

Thanks for replying, buddy! I tried googling didnt find anything about this. I wonder how something like this is normally handled. In baseball, football, etc., they have available substitute officials, I would imagine. Probably they have a "substitute" judge available to fill in, who just continued the original judge's scorecard? I'm just guessing, of course, but I imagine this would have come up at Some Time, in The 100+ Years of Boxing!

Do these highlights give the fight justice? I'm hearing a lot of people saying Douglas was jobbed.

Had Cherry winning 6-4. Better power shots and more effective aggression over most rounds

Oh ok, I feel better now. I missed The Fights, but I hate to see someone get robbed. I'm glad the right guy Won, at least.

OK y'all, in case anyone missed, here's The Fight:

It's in Spanish, so I couldn't understand the commentary, but in any case, I finally got to see It since I missed Last Night. I had It 5-2 Edner Cherry, with 3 rounds even. And I really had to stretch to give Omar Douglas those 2 rounds that I did. I didnt see him land much. I was rooting for Omar Douglas, I like him, but he simply did not Win This Fight (in my eyes anyway). I can't really argue with the decision.
