Farce: Barthelemy vs Relikh

[koolkc107]

It's decisions like this that makes some casuals think our sport is no different than the WWE.

Guy out throws by over 200 and out lands by over 100 and loses a UD with the closest scorecard 8-4?

I saw a much closer fight with a clear and noticeable edge going to the guy doing the most work.

When are we going to have schools for boxing judges and referees?

When are we going to have the same type of critiquing of performance that officials from other sports undergo?

This stuff has to stop if boxing is ever going to be mainstream as it was once was...

I support an idea from some time ago, as long as it's televised. Like a "Showtime Judge Hot Seat" show or something.

Sit the judges down to watch the key moments of each round with Paulie and Farhood, and have them justify each round they gave the winner.

Be hilarious watching their winner eat punches the whole round while the judge fumbles a justification.

The score cards were bad but I still got Barthelemy wining.

I don't know who the guy who doing compubox score with so many landed shots when must were block.

I missed the first round but here is my scorecard

?-?
10-9
9-10
10-9
8-10
10-9
10-9
10-8
9-10
9-10
10-9
10-9

105-102 even by giving Relik first one is 114-112

A lot of close rounds but the clean punching at the end of those rounds sway the round for Rances.

That would be great TV, but it doesn't help the fighters real time.

Something has to be done to stop the robberies.

This is embarassing when you tell your friends (who you are trying to get interested in the sport) that there are good fights on and they tune in and see this crap happen.

Did you score the fight round by round or did you got influence by the commentators.

BTW Relik did not land that many punches unless hitting glove and guard count as landing.

I wasn't influenced by anything- I can see things for myself.

Hell, I went into it rooting for Barthelemy.

But Relikh should have got that.

It was easy to score.

If you don't score each round as it own is easy to be fool by you own perspective.

Even when you rooting for someone the fact that the other guy was doing more that people expected can actually influence you decision, even more with a once side commentary.

For me I try to score on effective punching first and when is to close, sometime the guy who go the best punches landed get the nod, independent of what he did the round before.

Like after Relik knockdown and awesome all around round, the next round he decided to do nothing actually let Rance recover and I gave Rances that round just because a few more clean land shots. If I wasn't scoring I may think Relik won all those round base on 1 awesome one.

those scorecards were a joke

No idea what fight you were watching.

It's like one of these threads every week.

Official decisions are nothing but WWE entertainment **** just so fans have closure.


You just have to score these fights yourself and trust your own judgement
