Comments Thread For: When it comes to scoring fights, it's best to believe the media

[New England]

jesus f#cking christ, no. maybe the BWAA, real writers get a scorecard, but FFS do you people understand how easy it is to get media credentials?



do you really want "thaboxingvoice," elle sechback, and "dontae" scoring your fights?

Pacquiao won the damn fight in people's eyes not because of Teddy f**king Atlas, he won the fight because he consistently landed the cleaner, more effective, eye catching shots. That's why he won the fight.

Did you see that list I put up of people IN the sport who scored it for Pacquiao? Do you think all those people who got more boxing knowledge in their pinky fingernails than you got combined in your entire brain ALL got swayed because of Teddy Atlas? Do you really believe that ****?

You think Lou DiBella gives a f**k what Teddy Atlas thinks? Do you think Juan Manuel Marquez gives a f**k what Teddy Atlas says? Do you think Bernard Hopkins gives a f**k what Teddy Atlas says? What about Errol Spence? Guillermo Rigondeaux? Badou Jack? Devon Alexander? Brandon Rios? Jessie Vargas? Abner Mares? Robert Garcia? Billy Joe Saunders? Erik Morales? Marco Antonio Barerra? Lennox Lewis? Gabe Rosado? Chris Algieri? Claressa Shields? Sergio Mora? Ray Beltran? Andre Berto?

All of them, either on Youtube or Twitter said that Pacquiao won the fight. You think all these motherf**kers got swayed by a damn commentator?

Come on now dude.

Dude, Jeff clearly won the fight. I thought manny would win & cuz of him I got a pick wrong. I don't like having wrong picks in football or boxing but I will admit defeat. Jeff won.

See? This what happens when Atlas crushes your frontal lobes with his wrinkly old ****** schlong.

I think Horn washed your brain out of one ear. Just give up trolling. Pathetic.

Yeah you're right, the fact that I saw Manny consistently land the clearer, more accurate, more effective, more eye catching shots all night long was a mirage. Teddy's commentary brainwashed me. Teddy's commentary brainwashed 90% of the press who scored the fight. Teddy's commentary brainwashed Bernard Hopkins. And Lennox Lewis. And Erik Morales. And Juan Manuel Marquez. And Robert Garcia. And Joel Diaz. And Badou Jack. And Lou DiBella. And Marco Antonio Barrera. And Jessie Vargas. And Brandon Rios. And Abner Mares. And Devon Alexander. And Billy Joe Saunders. And Guillermo Rigondeaux. And Errol Spence. And Gabe Rosado. And Chris Algieri. And Andre Berto. And Sergio Mora. And Ray Beltran. And Claressa Shields.

That Teddy Atlas is an incredibly powerful and influential man, lmao.

**** had me dying

Shame on you Lyle Fitzsimmons. Media is the problem with the real fighters not getting respect then building up certain fighters to look better than they actually are (golovkin) & for all the "boxing is dead" talk which is in fact 100% false.

Manny outlanded him in 11 out of 12,rounds busted up his face had Jim out on his feet in the ninth landed double punches 50 more power punches

Yeah and he was cheated out of a two point round in the ninth by the judges. Accidently (on purpose) headbutted, fouled numerous times and no intervention by the referee.

This guy is voicing desperation, not a solution. It's not bad judging that is the problem. It is corruption. The judges are being swayed. For each bad decision, ask yourself: What is the incentive? Who benefits? These judges and ref make peanuts. Just treating them right might be enough to garner favor. Boxing is not regulated, so this ain't going away in a hurry. The biggest problem I have with this is it eliminates betting for me!
