C.J. Ross - Epic Failures

[Silkeyjoe]

george foreman is wrong about jazz and you are wrong about cj ross @Britkid .
she is clearly incompetent and a lot of the best jazz is extremely well liked.

Where does the clearness in the incompetence come from? She had a bad day at work this morning; she had another bad day with Pacquiao. I think also she has performed poorly in other fights. But I suspect most of the time she is very good at her job. Maybe she could do with some more 'training' in dealing with the big fights. That may involve her being 'rested' for a while. But it does seem very harsh to call someone incompetent with so little evidence. I know I would be out of a job, if your judgements and/or standards were used.

You are being too ruthless rocco!

As for George, you may have a point, he was certainly 'unique' in many of his traits, and that probably includes judging jazz.

Reread your statement above, Britkid. You're being (IMO) a bit too forgiving in this case. We're talking major mega-fights here, not your average run-of-the-mill fights. Efforts should be made to have the best judges available..... not someone who tends to have "bad days at the office." A PPV with the huge buildup and implications this fight had should not be left to chance by some mediocre judge.

Absolute retarded logic from Britkid. Watch the fight. There is no way you can score that a draw. I am probably more forgiving of judges then most but ffs that was shocking. Clearly she doesnt understand what a scoring punch is and needs to be given the boot.

I think to be fair I am not saying she was right

Clearly she doesnt understand what a scoring punch is and needs to be given the boot.

Again where does it show she 'clearly' does not understand what a scoring punch is? I am confident she does, and thus am prepared to believe she had a poor day at the office, because otherwise I can only come to one other conclusion.

The fact she scored it a draw shows she does not know what a scoring punch is. Alvarez didnt land anything let alone enough to win 6 rounds.

I had Mayweather winning comfortable, but are you really saying Alvarez did not land a punch?

For christs sake Britkid, we aren't talking about a brain surgeon here. Why do you doubt that she is corrupt; is it really more outlandish to suggest that than it is to argue the merit of scoring that fight even? There is absolutely no excuse for that scorecard and to justify it by citing her experience is ridiculous.

[ruthless rocco]

CJ Ross digs deep....

Boxing News | C.J. Ross: I stand behind my decision

someone check her and her family's bank accounts!!!

i'm pretty sure if you cross reference the cost of Oscar's rehab with amount CJ Ross' bank balance just jumped they'll be awfully similar.

I doubt anyone here has not done something absolutely ridiculous in their job/life. And it was not because they are corrupt, it is just they are human...

If judging boxing was as simple as getting a computer to count punches, we would have had that by now. Amateur boxing tried it to a degree, and I think most agree it added not took away from the problem. Part of the beauty of boxing is that it is far from perfect. So the woman had a poor day at the office. Well no one died, and still the right person won.

I know I am guilty as most, by why all the negativity? We have just watched the finest fighter of the 21st Century put on a master class. At his age and with his style, it maybe the last time we see such brilliance from him, so lets make the most of that, rather than letting a poor bit of judgement overshadow things.

People like you is whats wrong with boxing. You accept this bullshit and corruption like so many others which allows it to continue.

[p4pking]

Exactly! If you are a professional anything at a high level then expectations should be high and mistakes scrutinized, the fact that boxing is subjective should not be an end all to this, it's within reason. The right guy won in spite of this awful judge, it's not exactly a footnote and were there two of her we would have had a dominant performance in the highest profile fight in years become a farce. Anyone who doesn't think this stuff hurts the sport is high if you ask me.

Because I'm a negative cunt, but thats besides the point. Just as is the fact that Mayweather got the win, when we are talking about this specific judge who didn't give it to him. If people are extremely successful and achieve notoriety in their field, then absolute screw ups shouldn't be tolerated. 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.

[Beanflicker]

This broad should be banned if this sport and it's athletic commisions had any integrity, but I'm sure we'll see here blowing fighting and fucking over fighters for many years to come.
