Comments Thread For: Tony Harrison Decisions Jermell Charlo, Controversial Shocker

[Superbee]

Charlo's sweep anyone ? That would be something...

[Damn Wicked]

The whole of boxing and their judging methods needs a revamp because it is NOT working, and is not fair to the boxer's.

No way did Harrison do enough to win .... No way!!!

Yeah, as much as I want to give that fight to Harrison, I just don't think he came close to winning it. I think they hired figure skating judges for that fight.

rounds 2,3,4,5,7,8 could have easily gone either way

charlo won rounds 1, 6, 11, 12 and harrison 9,10 imo

just so happened two judges gave 5 of the 6 swing rounds to harrison and one judge gave them all to him

does not make it a robbery

fights are scored on a rbr basis. Fighter A can win rounds more definitively than Fighter B but not necessarily get the verdict e.g. hopkins vs taylor I

also, the vocal section of the crowd seemed to be pro-harrison, and crowd can definitely affect judges

I didn't score the fight due to how boring it was for me. However, there are worse decisions than that. Most of the rounds were competitive.

Exactly. Besides the 11th and 12th both guys had moments in every round. Charlo came in swing wild and got countered a ton and Charlo also landed some good shots. I thought Charlo would get the W though.

6-6, draw on point system, but Charlo was pushing the action n landed the harder shots, good fight

Good scorecard.

I had Harrison winning one more round than you.

Fair decision.

No such thing as "you have to take the belt", boxing is scored round by round.

Hurd fighting J Rock Williams anyway so they will likely just do the rematch

[HarvardBlue]

I thought Jermell won the fight. He really didn't do anything special. If Jermell got the victory I think the tide would swing to Hurd winning the fight easily. Maybe Hurd can get all the other belt now that Harrison has it.

What reason would they have to rob Charlo? fight is scored round by round.. if anyone was to be robbed it'd be Harrison. Charlo is the money maker

[Vasyl’s dad]

There was no robbery. Charlo was missing and getting countered alot. Isnt that the sweet science people claim to love?

[carltech35]

That was BS!!! Its a damn shame that JL is still judging fights. To give Tony 8 rounds is HIGHWAY ROBBERY!!!
