Who has gotten the most favorable Judge Cards?

[Matt60]

What fighter can you remember that has received more favorable judging than Canelo? He lost the Mayweather fight 11-1. He got completely schooled yet one of the judges had him tied on the card. Was he blind? Then in the GGG fight where he lost 8-4/9-3, he got a 10-2 card in his favor. Literally the most inexplicable score in history. In the GGG fight #2, he wins a fight he lost 7-5. The media members who watched the fight had it in GGG's favor by a wide margin. 40 of them scored the bout for GGG, just 2 for Canelo, and 17 had it a draw. Only 2 out of 51 media members had Canelo winning that fight while 2 out of 3 judges had him. https://www.reddit.com/r/Boxing/comm...ia_scorecards/


Can you remember a fighter who had it better? Maybe JCC Sr? SRL? ODLH?

Shh don't mention the scores in the GGG fights, especially fight 2. Everyone is supposed to think that Canelo schooled GGG and dominated that fight. Not that he got outlanded in 8 out of 11 rounds (instead of 10 of 11), and outlanded by 30 punches (instead of 50).

Yeah he has gotten incredible cards. I think Ward had similar cards though really. You could say Mayweather, but with Canelo getting a card against him, it is hard to argue that one.

Maybe Sven Ottke or something. Some guy who always fights at home. That's who gets the cards. Canelo and Floyd have always been at home, for the longest time anyway. So was Ward.

Hard to think of anyone who's consistently gotten edges with the judges like Canelo had.

I think among the top also rans would be Jesse Vargas. I got his ass having 4 or 5 more losses than he officially got thanks to judges.

That advantage may be over now that he isnt with Golden Boy anymore, or is he I havent really kept up. Its been made clear in the past though you would have to stop him to beat him.

You asked the question but then list all the fighters who had Controversial Decisions as well Ray Leonard, Oscar De La Hoya, Chavez Sr

Floyd Mayweather easily he was hands down the most spoiled little brat in boxing history.

Why does Oscar keep getting brought up? I can only think of one controversial win he got (Sweet Pea) and a bunch of controversial L's he took.

Agreed on Leonard though. Especially the second Hearns fight. Yeesh

[GhostofDempsey]

Mayweather and Ward come to mind.
