    The Scott/Wilder fight looked like a dive to me.... Scott did get hit, but it wasn't "that" bad. jmo... but, I wasn't the one in the ring.

    Corruption in boxing? Noooo

    And yeah the Wilder fight looked really suspect. Not saying it was a fix, but at least I think Scott felt a taste of Wilder's power and bitched out.

    a) Angulo couldn't throw a straight punch for about 5 rounds.
    b) Herrero dominated Garcia, but robbed.
    c) Scott lost his legs after being tapped on the gloves.

    For sure they should be investigated. Dodgy.

    The problem who is qualified to lead these investigations. In tennis there is a tennis integrity unit to investigate match fixing but this is generally spotted by dodgy betting patterns and the majority of match fixing in boxing is not for betting purposes.

    I would love to see an independent organisation get a % of all purses to investigate suspect judges/refs/fighters

    Maybe this is why Schafer is leaving.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    People with money don't get caught moving money around because the rules are too vague and the lawyers can argue another intent. They get caught trying to cover things up, interfering with the investigation.
