NSB Pick 'em #8 - Jorge Linares vs Anthony Crolla II, March 25

[BrometheusBob.]

I scored the first fight very clear for Linares 9 rounds to 3, 117-111 but one judge had it 115-114 and another one 115-113 with only one judge having scored the fight correctly at 117-111. Boxingscene livescore also had it 117-111 Linares.

I would love to participate but the controversy in boxing will leave me out of this one. The fight is once again at the Manchester Arena, so Crolla will get the favoritism from judges as much as possible. Linares should win a dominant fight but the judges will have it closer than it will end up.

You can't lose any points by taking a stab Kev

Bob how about using Boxingscene livescore as the scorecards to use for fights?

They score fights pretty fairly imo

GGG-Jacobs - 114-113 GGG
RG - Rungvisai - 113-113
Thurman-Garcia - 115-113 Thurman
Broner-Granados - 96-94 Granados
Frampton-Santa Cruz II - 114-114
DeGale-Jack - 113-113
Cuellar-Mares 108-119 - Mares
Kovalev-Ward - 113-114 Ward
Lebedev-Gassiev - 113-114 Gassiev
Donaire-Magdanelo - 113-115 Magdanelo

There's nothing in it for boxingscene scorer to play favorites obviously, given their track record. For example BS writers love GGG and RG but we see here they gave pretty fair scores for their respective fights.

If you use Boxingscene's own scorecards you can also eliminate people actually choosing the correct prediction but not getting it because of some paid ******* of a judge, or just a plain blind or incompetent judge who needs to retire.

Who produces the BScene live scorecards? They are usually pretty reasonable.

No idea, but they seem pretty consistent and unbiased.

I mean I thought GGG-Jacobs could've gone either way, a case can be made for Jacobs 115-113 or 114-113 and the same for GGG. But I think GGG 114-113 is okay.

While I do like this idea a lot, I really do, but what happens when the final result is different from BScene? For ex if they scored the fight for Jacobs or for Kovalev? Everything will get messy and you may get some outrage from various posters.

Are you saying you want BrometheusBob to use boxingscenes scorecards instead of the official judges scorecards for the fight?

If so, I don't think alot of people would like that. People have to think about how judges see fights and promoting the event when making their picks

I don't even recognize these two fighters. And this is a rematch? I don't even know what happened the first go around.

Oh well. Might as well pick someone.
