That's like saying every ships Captain should be given a pass for running aground or hitting a fucking iceberg now and then, only human right. A bad day at the office could be giving Canelo 3 or 4 rounds instead of 1 or 2, but not 6. This lady is either corrupt or woefully inept, I don't see how you can spin it otherwise.
A Captain running a ground could have fatal consequences, at best it is going to cause real problems for the people on the boat. Ross scored a bout a draw that I think most disagree with. In the end it did not matter, as her opinion did not count in the verdict as two of her peers scored the fight for Lil Floyd. Why all the fuss, Ross does not matter in this fight?

As for corruption where is the evidence? Where is the need to investigate? I am not American, but if I was, I would not want more tax dollars spent on something like this, that will almost certainly lead to nothing.
Well as Rocco said, she turned a clear UD into a MD, I have no idea what the betting implications would've been but that certainly affected people. You are sort of posting as if having the fight even isn't unreasonable, at least it reads that way when you keep reinforcing that Floyd still got the nod. 3 kids with downs syndrome could have scored that fight without causing a stir, the fact that 2 of the judges didn't screw up shouldn't give this lady a pass for doing so. Smashup had a great point with the Michael Watson-Eubank rematch as well, bad decisions can have fatal consequences in this sport.

I completely understand that you just don't want to make a big deal of it and accept bad judging as part of boxing, but there is no reason that it can't be improved in major PPV events in this day and age. This woman has a horrendous track record in big fights over the last ten years, she should have never been hired for this one in the first place. I'm not suggesting there's a lot anyone can do about it now as far as the tax dollars go.
