We know it's not unbiased, Ring's own reporters confirmed that and quit in disgust over it. So there's no logic in paying any attention to Ring.
    Good point, I'll disregard Ring and base my opinion on an independent and unbiased source such as yourself instead.

      Do you know you can make the same argument with fury right?

      "So 88% had Fury or a draw?"

      People in here really mad for a close fight

      I had it 113-113

        A draw is the most generous outcome for Wilder. No way in hell did Wilder win the fight

          True... ish.

          I still don't think scoring it as a draw means you should be fine with the result though.

          I think most can see how someone got to a draw. The vast majority can't understand how anyone came up with a big Wilder win to level the outcome.

            For the time being I'll keep Ring, PBC-Valen, etc, in the list. Unless there is unequivocal evidence of corruption innocent until proven guilty no? Even for Cali judges.

            WBC-whatever has left the building so if anyone else has ringside card sources they would be welcome. I just want to see an accurate overview of how the media scored the fight.

            Any opinions on adding respected boxers' verdicts?

              His stories and claims get more ridiculous. I blocked him but brought him back for the comedy because it's genuinely hilarious.
              There's three of him, you know.

              Maybe one is a paid shill, another is a fanboy, and the 3rd is a top US promoter who gets invited round for dinner with Haymon, Finkel and Sulaiman.

                Wilder's first PPV did 325k. How many HBO PPVs that didn't feature Canelo did more than that in the last 5 years?

                  I think your thread is ****** and have no interest in being involved. Feel free to ask another hundred times though if you want.

                    Correction .. Tyson Fury's first US PPV did 325K

                    How many PPVs did Deontay sell before sharing a ring with the Gypsy King?

                      Cool man. I know you're not into verifiable sources. Just please stop posting about how all the ringside observers told you Fury didn't win.
