Carnero Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Ducking disgraceful decision Catterall clearly wins by 6 rounds and they give a split decision victory to Taylor. Boxing stinks.

Ted McMinn Football Genius Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Definitely 4 round victory for El Gato, boxing is still corrupt. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 As horrific as Canelo’s 118-110 scorecard during his first fight with GGG. Boxing will never be fair when the result can be left to the opinion of three people who can easily be persuaded by a brown envelope under the door.

YouRams Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Watched and loved boxing since i was a boy but i think that's me done now, disgusting from the judges, if there isnt one in place there has to be an independent panel put in that can overturn wrongful title decisions. Fair play to Ben Shalom for his honest interview but it cant stop at that. I was a Josh Taylor fan before but his interview was even worse than the decision.

Jimbo Ram Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Me and my son watched and thought Catterell fought the perfect fight. Out punched, out thought and out fought him in his own back yard. I had Catterell winning by 5 rounds and that was being generous to Taylor. It just has to be rigged, no other explanation ?

Gee SCREAMER !! Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 That was Catterall by 8 rounds. Don't mind Taylor normally but the dragging back and hitting and throwing into the ropes was pure desperation. And trying to use the shoulder to the face in Round 9 should have had a point deducted as well - then Catterall gets one Probably 9 rounds to 3 really Appalling decision.

Gee SCREAMER !! Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Missed Taylors interview. Just caught up. Do you think he believes his own poo. He was hammered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Dreadful decision. I think the ref saw it coming, hence he deducted a point from Taylor for the softest of late blows to try to even it up. It didn't work, mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 And that is the principal reason that fight fans are deserting boxing in their droves and flocking to MMA. Some of these judges should never be allowed to score a fight again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWC1983 Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 As everyone has said, shocking decision. I follow a Scottish commentator on twitter that lives in the US. He covers American sports for ESPN. Euan Donaldson. Anyway, he put up Andre Wards scorecard (he was the expert on espn) at the end of the fight and Ward had it by 2 rounds to Taylor. He gave him rounds 2 - 5 ?♂️. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkFruitsRam7 Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 I'm not exactly a hardcore boxing fan, so I'm wondering: Why were the judges were so wrong in their scoring? Incompetence? Corruption? If it's the latter, why is nobody attacking Taylor for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was always heading to America after this fight. DarkFruitsRam7, Alph and Comrade 86 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alph Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Boxing judges always have the defence "it depends what they were scoring it on" Maybe these judges just liked Taylor's come forward and get punched in the face aggression.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Bit gutted all round tbh because I'm a fan of Taylor. CWC1983 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie20 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 British Boxing Board of Control to investigate the scoring. The judges need to be banned for life but any investigation will probably end up being a whitewash, they're as inept as the EFL and PGMOL.
