Why would some judges who flew in from someplace else give two shits about a home crowd?Quote:

At least he shut down that silly Mayweather snowball from dumb guy asking him questions.
Are you guys for real?? So ok.... hometown decisions don't exist and are a figment of the imagination, right?
There have been no shady decisions in Texas involving Mexican or Mexican-American fighters, right?
Whew! That's a relief.
I guess it's all been a bad dream.
I had Garcia ahead 7 - 5
So, you really think Guerrero won?Quote:

Yeah. Thats one city but had this fight happened there, the results would have been the same. My point is that in this fight the city had nothing to do with the fix.
PBC fights although I enjoy them mainly do to the undercards have a script for the headliner regardless of the city they are in for certain fighters.
Who gives a flying one where judges fly in from?
They can be influenced just the same by the organizations and behind-the-scenes interests in boxing.

I can see the favoritism for a Golden Boy or a Mayweather, but for Garcia?
We're all going to have different opinions but mine is that Garcia is not the marquee name that will skew decisions his way in a shameful manner as some other fighters have.
Yes I do but it was not hard to predict what would happen if it went 12. This is common practice these days. Its not Garcias fault. FFS they are fixing tennis. You have to do more then win it against certain guys. Look at poor Herrera. Did he not beat Garcia also?Quote:

Garcia has seen this and benefited before, I thought he looked like a guy going thru the motions in gaps and showed little versatility.
Herrera and Peterson fights say otherwiseQuote:

I thought Garcia deserved to lose the Herrera fight.... it was an ugly, lousy effort.
The Peterson fight was closer, IMO.
This one tonight definitely cannot be considered a robbery.
Guerrero won the first half..... Garcia won the second.
It's weird people thought Guerrero won. I stopped scoring after the 7th I think but I had Garcia ahead at that point and he definitely looked like he did better than Guerrero later in the fight. There is no way he lost the first 4 rounds like some of you claimed. It seemed like a close but clear decision for Garcia. No robbery and no controversy.
There was only one winner - Garcia. Around 8-4 seems fair to me. Guerrero was in the fight early then from the 5th/6th onwards Garcia not only outboxed him but landed all the eye catching shots/combos.
