byrd's scorecard is too blatant to be corruption, it's just incompetence

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

I'm hoping this ranks up with when Mayweather-Alvarez when CJ Ross got fired for scoring it a draw.

Kinda interested to see the adjustments for the rematch.

GGG knows he can walk through the best Canelo has to offer, Canelo (after watching tape) should know that he owns GGG in the middle of the ring.

Yeah but he goes to the ropes because he can't handle GGG's power.

That was the weird thing! He didn't at first. He just wanted to try some bullshit Ali rope a dope thing, and then Golovkin started catching him and it was 'oh poo poo' and he never got back.

for a long time the judge that scored Antuofermo-Hagler I (another contentious draw) in favor of Marvelous Marvin printed up business cards with the tagline "I Got Antuofermo-Hagler Right", and I bet Dave Moretti is calling up Vistaprint to make similar cards after tonight

sadly between now and the rematch we won't have a fight as incredibly insane and British as Hagler-Minter, which is still one of my favorite fights

i mean it's always bad when a fighter gets robbed, but canelo did better than i thought and it was a good, close fight, even if GGG clearly won, and i'd really like to see a rematch, so silver lining i guess

See, if you gave all 3 last rounds to Canelo instead of just the last one, like I did, then you could even have a 114-114. But 118-110 is a complete loving joke, Byrd should be out of a job 15 years ago.

A draw is the absolute most generous score you could give Canelo. He did not win that fight at all. Just crazy how some people seem to live in a totally different reality.
