Boxing: Tyson Fury v John McDermott

[steevie]

Anyone watch this fight? Anyone still believe boxing is not rigged. The Referee on show in this fight is the Mark Clattenburg of boxing. Fury was given the verdict of winning by 6 rounds despite everyone witnessing that he lost by at least four rounds. The referee should be struck off and forced to go down a level or two following his obvious scandalous decision.

Boxing will always be rigged for decent prospects and big names.
That decision was an absolute joke, but i was not at all surprised by it.
I said to my mate, Tyson will get the decision even though he clearly lost.
I expected it to be by the odd round though, not by SIX!

He got battered then?

Good, can't stand the Mank.

Saw the Mallaniggi-Diaz fight a couple weeks ago. Paulie M clearly won 115-113 or 116-112 (the rounds were easy to score) even Diaz's parents knew Paulie won. However before the fight started Paulie said the judges that were picked were corrupt and he didn't have a chance. These were the same judges who gave Rocky Juarez a draw against Chris John another joke of a decision. He was right one judge even had it Diaz winning by 6 rounds. It was a total joke. If it wasn't for Paciaquo I wouldn't watch boxing anymore.

I don't know why big corporations like HBO pay millions of dollars for fights let the promoters hand pick "their" judges. I guess they an interest in Diaz winning too given that he has a contract with HBO.

Great fight, ruined by the boxing cheats.
That's what you get when you have pikeys around.

Good fight but the result was wrong. Thats what you get when the result depends on one mans personal decision.

It's not the first time and certainly won't be the last. I can remember the Oscar De La Hoya vs. Felix Trinidad a fight between 2 class fighters which De La Hoya lost


It should be a rematch McDermott to win.

Fury is the money, being primed for bigger things, just like a certain Khan was before Prescott. How Khan still got a title shot less than 12 months after shows the depths of corruption boxing is reduced to. Promoters are to blame, not looking out for their boxers, the fans, the tv audiences, or anyone else but themselves. + Rep Joe Calzaghe for dragging Warren through the pig-swill. Recent amateurs in Milan weren't so hot either, and still the US coma goes on.

I won £10 from a mate on that fight, I thought Tyson would win. Mark Clattenburg of boxing is about right. Couldn't keep the cash so put it in a forces charity tin. Was fuming but it's not the first bad decision and won't be the last.
