Comments Thread For: Easter Fends Off Shafikov, Wins Unanimous Decision to Keep Title

[The Comic DON]

wanna talked about bias?

He must have been one of the judges tonight.

We should at least thank him for the heads up.

120-108? Come On! Judges No Respect just completely Bias to the Hometown Guy on the Cards 120-108 WTF was they watching? Well they wasn't watching they came in with their Scorecards already filled out in favor of Easter

Still a great fight respect to Easter and Shaf!

I'd like to see Easter rematch Commey or try to get a fight with Linares next, but I think PBC is angling for him to fight the winner of Luna/Herring coming up. I'm guessing they're hoping for Herring to win to have an all Ohio showdown

Easter Jr and Herring are training partners. They won't fight

12-0, i can't believe it, this is a disrespect for professional athletes.

Easter starting to sound too much like Broner, hopefully he doesn't end up too much like him. After some of these cards tonight, I'm hoping we don't see many more fights in Ohio

Ah OK, didn't know that. Thanks for the heads up. Hopefully Linares or Commey 2 then

Why do it though? That is what I do not understand.

Where is the problem in giving Shafikov the rounds he clearly won? Like rounds 5 & 6 I believe were clear Shafikov rounds.

Even if you were bias or on someones payroll surely you'd at least say give Shafikov a few rounds to make it look less suspect?

Right man won I just struggle understanding wtf these judges are doing half the time or the logic behind it

[Eff Pandas]

Disgraceful scorecards, such a shame because the fight was tremendous. Wtf man, seriously...

100%.

These scorecards don't get the criticism they should get cuz "the right guy won", but they should get massive criticism on the two judges in this fight or any fight that are THAT far off base with what everyone witnessed.

F#cked up situation & one of the many reasons casual fans & sports fans get frustrated with boxing & think of it in a similar way as pro wrestling.

well, at least Shafikov wasn't low blowed a hundred times so.....
