    You're extremely naive. It's not just a magazine. It's also a website. It's also a sanctioning body. It was also an attempted TV channel. It was going to be the focal point of Haymon's plan to buy Golden Boy. Consolidate everything under the Ring banner and use the Ring title as the in house championship.

    Ring is a critical propaganda tool. That's why De La Hoya spent millions on it.


    Now let's talk about the corrupt organizations doing PBC fighters big favors and screwing over non-pbc fighters like Machado when Davis was elevated and he was demoted because Davis beat a guy who'd not won in years and was moving up.
    No, let's not talk about anything else. Everyone knows the sanctioning bodies play favorites. Don't try to distract from the fact that Ring plays favorite too. Nobody points to the sanctioning bodies for unbiased ratings and you shouldn't point to Ring for unbiased ratings either.

        My group WBO WBF IBO and WBC WBA IBF all had Wilder winning. Both of us and our respective multiple personalities have the vote at 6-0 for Deontay.


        That should even up the tally

          Ha, I knew these press score threads were normal. Here's one for the GGG-Canelo fight:-



          I dunno why some people have to be so rude about it.

            You should base your opinion on however you scored the fight, but if your score differs from ringside experts, keep in mind we're better able to judge what landed and how hard.

              You can verify what your neighbor thinks, but that doesn't mean I should take your neighbor's opinion seriously.

              BoxingScene's own list of experts had only 6 of 14 in favor of Fury. So just stop crying robbery already. It was a close fight. More people thought Fury won than thought Wilder won. But a LOT of people thought it was a draw. So a draw is a reasonable result.

                "So 88% had Fury or a draw?"

                But the official result was a draw, and Fury fans call it a robbery. So they're not using that argument. They don't think it was a draw, they think Fury won.


                I had it 113-113 as well.

                  How many PPVs did Deontay sell before sharing a ring with the Gypsy King?
                  Stuff like this shows how idiotic UK fans can be. Wilder for years has consistently been one of the biggest ratings draws on Showtime. He's also fought multiple times on prime time network television with millions of viewers. He stars in major reality show, has over one and a half million followers on instagram, etc. He's a star in the US.

                  Fury was a strong b-side, but he was still the b-side.

                    You were fine posting your press scores everywhere until I disputed them and now you say they're just meaningless opinions?

                    And then you say a draw is reasonable because lots of people thought it was!

                    You suck in every way that it is possible to suck. And then some.

                      Disputed them by posting non press row scores?!? Lol.

                      BoxingScene's own list of top experts had 8 out of 14 saying Fury didn't win. So don't act like my personal opinion has anything to do with this.

                      Wilder winning? Maybe you could cry robbery.

                      A draw? You look ridiculous crying robbery.
