The Boxing thread

If I thought the Campbell Hatton decision was a shocker I stand corrected. This is a fucking, robbery Dick Turpin would have been proud of

Boxing is bent shocker!!! lol,it always has been....that decision last night was just a particularly blatant example.

On a more interesting note....Natasha Jonas scrubs up well.

Until she opens her mouth

Beat me to it. Instantly thought of the Hatton bout when I saw this ‘result’.

Pointless watching the sport.

shocking decision, don't think ive ever seen such a bent result

catterall clearly won that bout, i mean one of the refs gave it 114-111to taylor, scandalous

has to be a enquiry and a rematch but i fear taylor will move up a level

That was with being docked a point too

Stopped being a big fan of boxing years ago, still watch the occasional fight.

I didn't watch last night but I've seen a lot of reactions sympathising with Catterall, I don't one bit. You can be rest assured that if it were the other way about and Taylor clearly won the fight but the victory was awarded to Catterall, he wouldn't have gave a shit either.

This happens ridiculously often in boxing and I'm yet to see the person who's been awarded the win hold their hands up and admit they got absolutely battered and don't agree with the decision.

A sport run by cheats with competitors happy to lap it up if it suits their own progression.

It’s all a bit too much WWE these days I’m afraid from the faux aggression at weigh in to sell tickets and make money to the bent results that no doubt are also rigged for money.

Horrendous decision. Even though it's a bit hypocritical of us to get on our moral high horse after yesterday!

I said that Catterall had to win the rounds big and he didnt manage to win it as big as he needed. A rematch. I dont think Taylor will take the fight he will move up in weight.

You're not seriously suggesting that Catterall didn’t do enough to win that fight comfortably. If you are, you're in a tiny group, along with the two judges and the anti-English Scots out there.
