ESPN FNF back - Jan 4th fight/chat thread

[Spicoli]

We should track clear robs this year. Not 'close' etc but shit rob calls. Post to Wiki or something. Something.

Helen keller and Mr. fawking Magoo would see Usmanee winning more than 4 rounds here

That is a great idea

Theres zero accountability in this sport for judges. None. We yell and then mostly settle.

116-112...twice...robbery! I don't need Teddy Atlas coughing up a lung for me to know it was garbage.

Lol. Yup we get outraged and then pacify by the following week. Its a wonder this sport has any fans.
Like addicts continuing to shoot hot loads.

Teddy had it too wide for the Afghanistan fighter, but he clearly did win the fight a good 7-5 or 8-4.

That 12th round was damn near 10-8 in his favor.

Fightscorecollector is at least keeping track of shit like this.

Its a start.

Agreed, the 12th round was a one-sided beatdown, how 2 of the judges could have given this to Barthelemy 116-112 is a fucking mystery, it totally ruined what was an excellent/gutty performance by Usmanee.

BTW, the good news for Usmanee is he made a bunch of new fans, including me, and hardly anyone believes he lost that fight.

I second this. I watched this fight with a few family members and friends who are not really boxing fans and they were impressed with Usmanee.

Usmanee is a likable/entertaining guy, whereas Barthelemy comes off as a fucking clown.

It was a robbery and Teddy was right to be shouting himself hoarse. Crap decisions are almost par for the course now. We are almost becoming anaesthetized to them. "Oh that's another one! Next..."

[Master]

Do we get to see this fight over here?
