Has the word "robbery" lost all meaning?

[Combat Talk Radio]

Joe beat Hopkins fair and square, in no way was it a robbery..

Go back and watch the fight again.

I said 'arguably' because Hopkins performed extremely well yet somehow the judges didn't agree. It was the one fight I can recall that exposed Calslappy's defensive weakness.

I don't call a lot of things robbery. Two recent robberies that come to mind are Pacquiao/Horn and GGG/Canelo I.

Bro you just admitted you hadn't scored a fight in years man...that's disqualifying from having a debate about boxing...I never really cared about your opinion on boxing but now I really just take notice of nothing you say on the subject.

And yeah when you score a round, you are evaluating the punches that land and scoring them...not every punch scores the same...that's obvious man...exactly how people breakdown how effective a shot is, is up to them...but generally speaking, every pro judge in the world rewards better shots more, vs not as effective shots...feel like you're grasping for straws here bro.

Once again you make yourself look foolish in efforts to try and 'win' some fantasy debate, that you're really only having with yourself.

That dude is a complete imbecile. I think he’s actually just an alt tho. Him and Curtis Harper I believe are the same person.

By your OWN definition, Pac/Bradley 1 was not a robbery.

Whitaker/Chavez was about keeping someone alive.

Williams/Lara - yes, that was a robbery.

Pac/Marquez 3 - arguably a robbery.

Wilder/Fury 1 - arguably a robbery.

Eubank/Schommer - robbery, admitted by Eubank himself.

Hopkins/Calslappy - arguably a robbery.

Foreman/Briggs - not a robbery, close.

Leonard/Hagler - not a robbery, close.

Mayweather/Castillo - not a robbery, close.

Mayweather/Maidana - not a robbery, close.

Pac/Horn - not a robbery, close.

Pac/Thurman - not a robbery, close.

Thurman/Porter - not a robbery, close.

Spence/Porter - not a robbery, close.

Depending if you are a fan of the losing fighter then its a robbery.

[Onetwoboxing]

That's the world we live in now. Any close fight where someone's favourite fighter loses is a "Robbery". Judging is subjective. Different judges are looking for different things. It happens.

[Marchegiano]

Funny enough, I have never seen either one of you post a scorecard from a fight...just odd.

Btw...all scoring criteria matter in boxing...defense etc are important.

But the only thing you ACTIVELY score is the punches that land and their effectiveness...that people on a boxing forum don't understand this is really sad.

But it is what it is! You guys are good fans and the sport needs fans too!!

Probably because crying about scores and having your personal card be noticed goes hand-in-hand around here.

If I'm not crying I'm being buried by those who are, aren't I?


I've had Wilder in my sig for a very long time. I've been a vocal Wilder supporter long before Fury I. Everyone of us were requested multiple times to supply a scorecard for Fury-Wilder I. It is not my fault you missed multiple posts on one of the biggest and most controversial decisions in the past five years at least probably better.


I'm not blaming you either, but, fair is fair, I made those posts. I had those arguments. It was a very popular fight. I got buried in the crying because I won't be convinced to add to it.



You can keep crying about actively scoring punches exclusively....why would I care? Why do you care if I don't care?

correct... I have not sat down with a pad and pen when watching a fight... FOR DECADES... there is literally no point, and no reason

I have watched THOUSANDS of fights... you excitable fanboy muppet

the fact that you think that is essential, tells the whole story

I do not care what others think of you, but I HAVE YOUR NUMBER... you shlt-talking little tosser... as you excitedly count up jabs on your fingers

only a fool would respect your opinion

you proved you are an absolute shlthead when you posted this nonsense

I'll also tell you how I score them...generally give a 'full point' for a good hard clean shot...and a 'half point' for a punch that is a scoring blow but isn't necessarily super hard or clean.

punches that are neither hard nor clean... are NOT official scoring criteria you shlthead fanboy

you have no idea what you are talking about

oh, riiiiiiiiiight... now I see how you sc****d together 8 rounds for Golovkin... despite the fact that ALL 3 judges scored 5 of those rounds for Canelo

what a moron kid

a better example of a shlthead casual-fan... will not be found

hey, this is a prime opportunity for you to tell us your story again...

your story... about how Golovkin has faced more quality opponents than almost every other fighter in history
