As we both know, boxing isn't scored by counting punches. Power punches were as even as could be and we know thats what judges look for.
I'm not saying it's scored by counting landed punches. I am saying that giving all 4 early rounds to Canelo is highly suspicious. Neither fighter did much early and Bivol had outlanded him clearly in some of those rounds. I could see it being even 2-2 or Bivol 3-1 but Canelo 4-0 is viewed as inexplicable (and indefensible) by the boxing industry, fans, and media.
Wow you are horrible at judging.
LOL no man, just no. 2-2 for the first 4 rounds was already generous, giving Canelo all 4 is sus as hell.
You guys justifying why you had it for Canelo is the problem, and its why those judges will keep scoring like that for Canelo.
You're welcome to your opinion like everyone else.
Yes and welcoming everyones opinions aside, we are also welcomed to critique others opinions as well especially if they are utter garbage. If we want to argue close rounds going to either or why is it that Canelo got 4/4? not even 1 to Bivol? I wonder Why all 4 HAD to go to Canelo? What if there was no name attachment there? What if that was some 2-8 scrub for the first four rounds?
No one is looking for your approval. I scored the fight live, had Bivol winning 7 rounds, which seems about right to me. Judges were in agreement with my score. I saw several posters I know well who had it close as well. 115/113 bivol, 116/112 maybe. People saying Bivol won 11 rounds are simply doing what they are accusing me and others of and giving every close round to the guy who fights the way they like and scoring blocked punches. Same thing they say Canelo fans are doing.
I didn't give all 4 of the first rounds to Canelo. You're aware I had Bivol winning the fight?
You are now using bias to overeach and focus on "well some people had it 11 rounds for Bivol". Who cares?
I am aware, but I also am aware you are ok with all 3 judges giving the first 4 to Canelo.
And your expectation after revealing you know this is what?
Some people aren't even happy with Canelo losing. They have to now commit character assassination through conspiracy theories that Canelo controlled all 3 judges to make him lose, but not by a lot.
You must be new here. This is going to go on for months. People will bring it up years from now in unrelated conversations.
Go back to the RBR and tell me what you get versus what I got, I guess. Did you score it? I did live, haven't watched it through/run it back on the scoring.
I also had 115/113 Bivol, as did that poster you quoted who has posted in the boxing forum for years and all 3 official pro judges.
