War the boz!!!! (Povetkin - Boswell/Helenius - Chisora)

[captainanddew]

Under any angle of the stitches, I can't see how Helenius could win a split... 9-3 at very best for Chisora, it's a disgrace but Germany is apparently familiar with that kind of home cook verdict.

Lets be honest. Any time you go into an fighter's hometown then there is going to be homecooking. Ask Kotelnik about winning a decision against Alexander in St. Louis. Ask any foreigner about winning a decision in the UK. Ask a foreigner about winning a decision in Germany.

the hometown fighter is going to get anywhere from 2-3 rounds given to him alot of the time.

Same thing for 2 guys where it isn't a hometown situation. Ask yourself who is the bigger name (or the champ) and figure 2-3 rounds are going to be given to him.

I'm cynical but that is what you see on a regular basis. Hometown guys and bigger name guys will get scores they shouldn't be getting.

Also if were going to hate on germany lets make sure the fight actually took place in germany, which it didnt this time.

I caught that as well, but pointing out that it was in Helsinki, Finland, just allows the poster to amend his statement with try to get a decision in any of those countries, and he can list, Germany, Finland, etc... The truth is it doesn't matter. Getting a decision in ________________ against a fighter from __________ is almost impossible. Just change the location to Germany, Finland, UK, USA, and it is all the same.

Chisora won that fight and on that form would beat Tyson Fury.

A bonafide robbery, fucks sake, I dont even like Chisora, the only fighter I dislike more is Margarito, and I had him winning fucking 9-3. Chisora won 7, count em, 7 CLEAR ROUNDS in this fight. Therefore he wins regardless of how kind you are to Helenius in the others, end of story. Fuck me this shit gets bad sometimes. Its as bad a decision as ive seen in all honesty.

I'd be interested to know whether you could find anyone on the forum that thought Helenius won, is there anyone at all?
