I mean we don't want to go down the VAR route now

But they must be able to utilise some technology to help them. Or even better, stop being corrupt c*nts and score the fight properly. Personally, I do find it much easier to score an MMA fight than a boxing bout, despite their being so many more variables at play.

And surprise surprise, historically where did you see the worst calls in the UFC? In Nevada, when they were using judges from boxing! Still do to be fair.

To be honest I barely follow the sport any more, used to be so into my boxing but I feel it's got worse. I know there's always been dogey decisions in the sport, but you almost feel there's no excuse these days they should be calling these fights correctly.

Saying that if I do manage to stir in the night I'll be trying to find a stream to watch Loma

Samie will have one but warning don't do and online shop with your wife or girlfriend on the laptop later that day unless you like awkward questions or have told her you often look at pussy and cock pics.

We say either its' corrupt judging or the fucker doesn't know how to score fights. Now not to say everyone scores fights the same but in no way was that fight a 7 point difference.

About 4 hours time but I'm doing an early one tonight mate.

What the hell was lomachenko doing? He literally gave away the first 6 rounds by refusing to throw punches. He easily won the next five when he decided to stop screwing around. Was pretty clear to me he’s the superior fighter. Bizarre.

rhysd · « **Reply #64106 on:** October 18, 2020, 05:56:05 am »

Will have to watch the first half of the fight, but I've thought for ages that Loma is a little small at 135. The size difference was visibly clear tonight.

At his age though, not sure Loma would go back down a weight. Got to go for the biggest fights and paydays at 33.

Usually takes a round or two to get started and had 14 months off but will be kicking himself.

Had it the same as Andre Ward but 119-109, what the actual fuck

I can understand taking a round or 2 to feel the guy out. But 6?

He absolutely tuned up lopez in rounds 7 through 11. Landed clean shots over and over. Lopez landed nothing of significance until the last round, which was a legitimately great round from him...but for me that’s really the only round he “won.” The first 6 were just given to him.

100% mate, was just strange and seemed to respect Lopez power too much, there were hardly any of the angles we see from him like we have done previously against the likes of Sosa and Rigondeaux

Loma took a chance he was getting a green inexperienced Lopez and Lopez took a chance they were getting a rusty Loma

Either way, would love to see a rematch, I don’t want to see Lopez move up until he defends at least once and who better than another match against Loma (from a fan POV!) also can’t wait to see Lopez against some of the killers at 140

All said and done, fair fucking play to them both, fighting each other when they should do and despite the lack of crowds or PPV

Officiating everywhere absolute joke this weekend

Lusty · « **Reply #64112 on:** October 18, 2020, 10:33:27 am »

Can't really make a case for Lomachenko winning that. 1, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 12 absolutely clear for Lopez and they weren't close rounds. I gave Lopez the second which is enough for the win but you could call it a draw if you wanted, basically Andre Ward's card.

Don't know how you get to some of the mad cards they had though, but the right man won.

Fordy · « **Reply #64113 on:** October 18, 2020, 11:37:05 am »

Lopez fully deserved to win the fight.

However, a rematch needs to happen.

It’s shocking they still use him as a judge. Probably just the first time he’s been caught doing it.

Samie · « **Reply #64117 on:** October 18, 2020, 01:08:29 pm »

Well got to hand it to Lopez I and many did not see that coming. Loma practically gave away the first half of the fight and then case can be made that he won evrey round after that. Can't say I disagree with the winner but that 119 scorecard is a fuckin' joke.

Rematch is a possibility.

What CB said.

Got to give props to the fucker Lusty though. Kept saying this fight may be one too many for Loma's crazy rise through the divisions.

We have to remember Lightweight is his fourth weight class. He started out at Super Bantamweight.

Clayton Bigsby · « **Reply #64119 on:** October 18, 2020, 01:33:56 pm »

He is too small for elite at 135lbs. He can rematch him but he will lose again imo. I don't think he 'gave' away the first 6 rounds either. I think he couldn't handle the length and speed of Lopez who looked a clear weigthclass bigger than him at the start but like a true champ he came back into the fight and made it interesting on my scorecard (7-5 Lopez)
