    And Ive explained it too you 5 times now,and so did Kirkland,its cheaper,theres a deeper pool to choose from
    It's CHEAPER to send an American to Britain?
    Lets try it using math,if there are 100 acredited judges from the states,and 50 others world wide,what are the odds that sooner or later a fight would end up with three American Judges?
    Hell count your blessings until the late 60's European judges almost never got used in the states,youve come along way baby

    Ok.. i suppose if there's NO judges anywhere in the whole wide world available on the night an American faces a non-American three American judges would make sense.

    So we have eliminated COST as an excuse, yes, and it's now about availability?

    No its about ODDS,It would happen sooner or later,when there are twice as many US judges,it was going to happen eventually
    What are the odds that it wouldnt,youd need serious Algebra to figure that out

    You know Fenster this is the equivalent of me sending a fighter to Cali,and complaining that all three of the judges were from the West Coast and there werent any West Virginia judges

    Very different then here in the states then,even in one city,they dont live together,or like each other.
    And I know when I send a fighter to California,the odds of me getting a non West Coast judge is slim and nill,and slims on the first train out of town

    Fenster was talking only about World title fights though. And again the fight that he brought up, all three judges were from Vegas. And this was for the Lineal Welterweight championship. And coincidently PBF also lives in Vegas.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    I can say I live in West Virginia,but Im originally from Philly
    And youd be real suprised how many fights that LEAD to that linear title are set up exactly the way I said.
    Sent a fighter to Sacramento,major stadium fight,did I bitch and whine that all three judges were west coast,and West Virginia wasnt represented at the Judges table?

    I think with the big high profile fights ,they make it a point to have a international trio.Ive seen quite a few under the radar ,lesser known title fights in one country or another with 3 of the same nationalities,I'm wanting to check fights in Argentina .As for 3 foriegn Judges apointed in the U.S for 2 Americans....good question??I know that some huge points of contention among camps are in the nationality factors and wanting home turf representation?

    For the year of 2000 ,Ive seen a breakdown of World title fights (wba,wbo,ibf,wba) and there host country for that year.....Tied for 2nd place was Germany and England with 18 a piece.......in the number 1 spot was The U.S with a total of 68 ! Did not realize that,Might answer some of the question.Those blasted Americans are just everywhere
