    I was wrong. Jack was not robbed.

    I rewatched round 7 and 9 and gave them to Pascal. I can pretty much understand now any result. True close fight.

    Just score it again on a round by round basis. Maybe a draw was fair but I think saying "robbed" is a different thing.

    My bad guys. I pushed so much the narrative of robbery but then I watched it again and it was no robbery.

      No, it's alright. All of us boxing fans at some point in time has done the same thing. We have a tendency of getting caught up in the moment and our zeal for our favorite fighters at times can cloud our better judgement.

        Definitely no robbery
        Only reason why I kept quiet is the fact that it seems to be the fad , especially on this site , to be calling any close fight a robbery
        The fact that Jack starts so fughin slow I think throws the judges really off , like he’s laughing at them
        His bad and can’t understand how he doesn’t fix this problem

          this happens all the time.... now

          less than 10% of the so-called " robberies "... are actually robberies

          you could watch this sport for years and not see one

          fans see whatever they want to see, and very few truly know how to score a fight properly... you can tell by the comments, punchstats doe lol

          crying robbery is their way of justifying how wrong they were

            it is getting ridiculous

            like I said earlier, very few " robberies "... are actual robberies

            casual fans have tell-tale signs... this is starting to become one of them

            90% of fans only watch one fighter... very few accurately score a fight

              Right on man. I saw Jack winning personally though I didn't score it but I wasn't mad or surprised at the outcome. Honestly thought it was gonna be a draw lol.

                It’s good to see someone admit they were wrong. As I’ve said before, I thought it was a toss-up fight. I was half thinking the judges would call it a draw, although I was leaning towards Badou. Any result would’ve been fine with me, as long as the cards reflected the closeness of the bout (which they did). In so many of these close matches, people tend to get upset if the guy they saw as the winner loses. Yet, there are usually at least a couple of rounds that could’ve gone either way. If even one judge leans toward the other guy, it changes the result. It’s usually not a robbery. A robbery is any fight where there is a clear winner — in effect, by a wide margin. There can be no question, no close rounds to affect the eventual outcome.

                  Close fight, no robbery. but I think Jack won by 2 or 3 points. Pascal had some rounds he was losing by not doing much and getting outlanded by the busier Jack and then tried to steal the round with a furry of punches at the sound of the ten second warning. Maybe it worked on the two judges that gave him the fight.
