    Good. We know that this sht will continue based on Bennett's attitude. Eventually, we will have to blame the fighters for choosing to fight Canelo and Ward in Vegas.

      Holy crap, Atlas and Stephen A. went off.......need to get Byrd justifying her score round by round alongside these two:



      Simply no way the NSAC sticks with this without being compliant with the incompetence/corruption, whatever it was.

        He explained: “Of course there’s a plan. I’ll go over the fight with her.

        “She has to articulate why she scored each round as she did. She was off her mark. We’ll go over the fight and by and large we train very hard here to prepare for the fight. Unfortunately she has had a bad night. Adalaide, in my estimation, is an outstanding judge.

        "Unfortunately, Adalaide was a little wide. I'm not making any excuses. I think she's an outstanding judge, and in any business, sometimes you have a bad day.
        “She saw the fight differently. It happens.”
        I feel like the title doesn't capture the fact that he didn't like her card.

          And too think she's judged 115 title fights, just makes it that much worse! When her husband, Robert Byrd, retires, it's a wrap for this hoe

            Unacceptable. Bennett needs to go. He is obviously complacent and involved in the corruption.

              'THE judge who scored Gennady Golovkin’s clash with Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez in favour of the Mexican will continue to be handed big fights'

              If she gets appointed to Loma/Rigo, Arum's objection will be heard all the way back in the Ukraine...

              (not only has she demonstrated total incompetence in the GGG/Canelo fight, but had Walters winning round 6 vs Loma remember.....Arum won't forget)

                He's some of her previously bad scorecards when Arum disputed her being a judge for Loma vs Walters less than a year ago.
                Byrd has a bit of a reputation for turning in ... interesting scorecards, whether in MMA or boxing. Some of her notable moments include:

                Awarding Leonard Garcia a completely baffling 29-28 victory over Nam Phan in their first meeting in 2010, which Garcia won by split decision.
                Turning in a 30-27 scorecard in favor of Melvin Guillard against Jamie Varner, who wound up winning the fight on the strength of the other two judges scoring it 30-27 for him.
                Scoring a 10-round shutout win for Jose Benavidez Jr. over Francisco Santana this past July, when most observers (and the other two judges) had it considerably closer than that.
                Scoring Gerald Washington a 97-93 winner over Amir Mansour in October 2015, which led to a split draw outcome that was seemingly a win for Mansour.
                Having Jessie Magdaleno up 118-110 in his unanimous decision win over Nonito Donaire on the undercard of this month’s Pacquiao vs. Vargas pay-per-view. It was perceived as an extremely wide scorecard for an otherwise close fight with a clear winner.

                She's for sure a f#cking problem, but it seems like you gotta f#cking up like 20% of your fights for anyone to give a f#ck in Nevada.

                  Plain and simple. They are both corrupt.

                    Is he defending and protecting incompetence or corruption? It almost doesn't matter all boxing scoring should be suspect in Nevada now. Bennet's statement only reinforces the average fans su****ion when the NSAC sees this as business as usual. Idiots or crooks, you decide

                      This makes Bennett as much of the problem as Byrd is, they should both be out
