    Default Boxing judges

    Does anybody know anything about any of the judges? Kind of like do they pay attention to boxing when not judging, how much boxing knowlegde do they have and things like that. After hearing the scores of some bouts, I just wonder if they know anything about boxing. Do these guys know anything about the current fighters. What the fighters tendincies are, how they typically fight, and things like that.

    Most of them are retired garbage collector who has nothing to do but being drunk when not judging.

    Theres a lot of good fighters who are Judges,but there are more who have never had a glove on. Ive always wondered why they do it, if its not for the money. Some of my best freinds are Judges.One heavyweight title fight he judged He scored a draw, and will never live it down,we wont let him. But Hes the straightest guy on this planet He scored it as He saw it

    I think it's best that the judges (at least one of the judges) aren't boxing fans in that same way that NFL refs aren't supposed to root for a particular team throughout the season.

    If you were a fight fan and a judge it would be very hard not to slide a few rounds to your man.

    Yeah, if I was judging female boxing, I'd quite like to slide a few to Laila Ali

    It just seems like that is done right now. We always hear about how this fighter gets the decisions because of his contract with HBO/Showtime. I think we all in a way acknowledge that this is already happening in some form or another.

    Good, in theory... I don't think that has a whole the general public or the majority of fight fans are qualified or unbiased enough to be able to score fights.
