Comments Thread For: Arum: This is What They Get For Letting Byrd Do Canelo-Golovkin!

[devildg]

she is an incompetent judge, wasnt always the case, probably due to old age and deteriorating mental skills.

she needs to be let go

[j.razor]

Being out power jabbed silly being chased backwards pushed backwards all night as ggg kept firing punches you are clueless save your money you are sure to lose it you are void of logic

Out jabbed silly? Child please, the only jabs you saw land were the ones jim lampley was commenting on! And when does a jab beat uppercuts, body shots & hooks? Its the only punch that's not counted as a power punch! I guess blocking those punches with his face & body didn't count as punches right? LMAO!

This is funny coming from crooked ass Bob who paid off Joshua Clottey to take a dive against Pac.

Damn, I thought I was the only one that thought that! Good to know some people are paying attention out there....

The list goes on...
My point? This isn't a single incident, she is either corrupt or incompetent.
Given her husband Robert Byrd is a referee, it's obvious his influence is stopping her from getting fired, where the corruption comes into it.

The NSAC are covering this up by saying she has been 'stood down' for big fights in the near future.
She will be on the biggest fights in due time, mark my words!

you have to be kidding.. youre posting fights where she gave 1 and 2 more rounds than the other judges? lol

quillin fight Richard Ocasio 78-74 | Adalaide Byrd 79-72 | Dave Moretti 79-73

118-110 someone better get fired. byrd or bennet take your damn pick.

Golovkin should be careful what he wishes for.
Golovkin actually got the exact fight that he said he wanted. A "history fight" like "Leonard and Hagler". If I remember "The Super Fight" correctly, Leonard defensively moved around the ring all night, only punching in spots. In the end, Leonard won a disputed decision. Coincidentally, that fight also included a controversial 118-110 scorecard. Golovkin and his fans should be happy that he got a draw, instead of losing like Hagler did.

Canelo fought nothing like SRL. He looked sharp in rds 1-3, but then back tracked and allowed himself to get walked down by a much stronger and much fitter GGG. SRL,wherever you stand on that fight, fought much smarter than Canelo did. GGG's jab dictated the pace of most of the fight. He looked stronger and more aggressive in at least 8 of 12 rounds. He should have won.

A great jab is the best weapon a fighter can have. Watch it again. GGGs jab was the most effective punch in the fight.

Boxing gone to S h it. Wbc used to be prestigious. Athletic commissions used to be strict and fair. Now it's all corrupt and fixed. I hope they go broke because I will never put one dollar into boxing again.

It's not that she has done it once, it's her consistency to keep getting it wrong. This last debacle is just the icing on the cake.
2 rounds difference is huge in 6 and 8 rounders.
You think she is a good judge do you?

You've described the way that history now seems to remember Leonard vs Hagler, but in 1987 there were a lot of upset spectators who believed Hagler had done more than enough to win. Similarly, 30 years from now, history will likely remember Canelo deserving the victory for having outboxed Golovkin, and all these sour g****s will be forgotten by the next generation of pseudo boxing experts.
