oh come off it mate, using semantics to try and prove a point is just silly.Alright. Lets keep it small. There was probably a 100 fights last weekend I would assume if we looked at boxrec. Tell me all the bad decisions you saw or heard about. Although I guess you only need two if there actually was 100 fights.
Or tell me the last 3 bad decisions you seen on TV.
My assumption is you gotta go back a ways & there have been a bunch of fights. Or you are being overly dramatically about a close decision where its not so much the wrong guy won so much as it was close enough either guy coulda won.
And for clarity like I said 99% was for effect. It might be 98%, 97% or whatever, but OVERWHELMINGLY the right guys gets the decision.
' there was loads of boxing shows on, and most didnt have dodgy decisions' It's not even physically possible to watch more than a couple of shows, so thats a totally void point
You say i gotta 'go back a ways' to name some bad decisions?
FFS i can go back 2 weeks to start of this boxing year i have seen a robbery in both of them
(mikki nielson clearly lost to a journeymen on the usyk undercard and got the W)
BTW I was in the live thread on here and i didnt see one person claim that Easter won.
Like i said, its week in week out...
Claiming 'the right guy overwhelming win's' is not just accurate whatsoever bud.Comment

Alright name them. Why so emotional about something simple to do.
Didn't see the Mikki fight so I'd have to look into that.FFS i can go back 2 weeks to start of this boxing year i have seen a robbery in both of them

Alright I respect your opinion & I got no problem agreeing to disagree with you.Claiming 'the right guy overwhelming win's' is not just accurate whatsoever bud.
Randomly if you had to pick a number what % of decisions do you think go to the wrong guy?Comment

With regards to %, I have no idea but its far far too much. It's definitely not in the single digits.
Claiming it's a rare event is just not true sadly, corruption is so widespread in the sport that people just expect the wrong guy to win the decision these days. that is ****ed, and makes me want to stop watching the sport.
Using who we mentioned, Easter Jnr, in his very short career so far of 20 or so fights he shouldn't have any dodgy decisions on his resume, if like you say its an extremely rare event.
Yet he has 3...Comment

Blame the Bobfather . . .
IBF never ever gains recognition without Arum. WBO never ever gains recognition without Arum.
Arum even tried to put the IBA on the map. People forget that. When King pushed him out of the IBF, Arum jumped in bed with the IBA and tried to put a fifth world title on the map.
Without Arum, we'd have two titles still, and possibly only one as most of the boxing world other than Arum put their support behind the WBC. The WBA only survived because of all of Arum's bribes. Which isn't an unsubstantiated accusation as Arum went public about all the bribes he paid to Pepe Cordero when Arum got mad about Don King pushing him out of the WBA.
Pepe Cordero was blackballed by the WBA when Arum exposed the bribery ring, and of course, Pepe then founded the WBO. The WBO was literally founded by the head of the WBA's bribery operation after Arum exposed everything.Comment
****ing legend.
