    And the one judge who scored the fight in favour of the ex-Ring Light Heavyweight champion was from Philadelphia too.

    I hope when Joe fights Roy Jones there are three Welsh judges with one from Newbridge. And Micky Vann refereeing.

    Hey let's not blame Roy for Golden Boy and the Nevada Athletic Commission's obvious faux pax in picking Byrd to judge the fight.

    Roy is going to England to fight Joe so I doubt any fight gets done without there being judges not from England there.

    It's a shame that Roy never went over seas to fight anyone during his prime...you don't HAVE to fight local fighters overseas, you could just bring a fight over there just for the hell of it, a la The Rumble in The Jungle or the Thrilla in Manilla.

    If Hopkins got three American judges Joe should get three Welsh judges.

    ....what are you complaining about, Joe STILL won Giampa and Gimza scored the fight fairly accurately. Byrd was wrong but she was not waaaaay far off, I mean it's not like she had Hopkins by 8 rounds or anything

    Not complaining, just making a statement.

    Hopkins could have won, but it would have had to be a few years back. Joe won, and deserves some credit. Hopkins can't fight a 12 round fight on the level he needs, to be able to get a win. Joe adjusted, and sustained, Hopkins didn't.
