Anytime you go to the cards, you're in a position to be robbed. The closest fights were probably vs Castillo I and vs De La Hoya.

Here is the criteria that judges score rounds on:

-Effective Aggression – Being aggressive gives the impression of dominance, but unless the boxer is landing shots and not constantly getting countered, it’s not exactly “effective.” Judges look for effective aggression, where the aggressor*consistently lands his punches and avoids those from his opponent.

-Ring Generalship – The fighter who controls the action and enforces his will and style.

-Defense – How well is a boxer slipping, parrying, and blocking punches? Good defense is important.

-Hard and Clean Punches – To the untrained eye, it can appear as if a boxer is landing a lot of shots, when, in fact, most are being blocked or aren’t landing flush. A judge needs to look for hard shots that land clean.

The first two categories are where the guy taking a boxing approach is susceptible, since they're never really initiating action. I mean...I suppose one could argue that Floyd is enforcing his will by getting up a few rounds, or getting out in front in a round by landing a few jabs, thus forcing his opponent to come forward and take risks, but all judges might not think like that.

Don't buy the paq was in on it argument, because he went for the kill in the 8th or whatever it was.

He went for the kill in the 9th then completely took the foot off the gas. Maybe age caught up, maybe he felt that was enough and he could coast but his post fight reaction was relaxed and non caring which raised the biggest eyebrows. I'd assume most guys fight to win, maybe that isn't his drive anymore but I'm running around throwing **** if I lost that fight the way he did. Very strange all around.

He's 38 and this isn't his first rodeo.

Don't remember him flipping out at the Bradley decision either.

Agreed, it's like when people idiotically say a NFL game is fixed. There's too many moving parts that would have to play out perfect to your eye that the reality is, could've broken differently.

May vs Castillo I and vs Maidana I were his closest fights I think.

Mayweather Mcgregor isn't going 12 so corrupt judges shouldn't be a huge issue. I'd be more worried about Floyd pulling an angle and getting away with it.

This is the critical information, people are absorbing too much info,

Conor can't box that well

Floyd has never even been threatened with a knockout even by murderers

Yeah he's 40 but he would never take this fight if he didn't think he was in great shape and he's never had a sip of alcohol, treats his body like a fine tuned machine, and jogs home from the strip club.

Good luck conor

Pac won some robberies too, for example against Marquez. He knows it goes both ways. He knows the Horn rematch is another paycheck.

Why would people would want to see a RM?
So that he lose again on a cheat ?
He won but not on paper, moving on ...
GOnna a hurt more the belt holder than PAC for not having a RM imo .

How is Mayweather going to knock out McGregor though? Seems to me very likely to end in a decision

It will likely end in a stoppage from repetitive blows; not a 10 second count.

Exactly, Manny is Manny and doesn't view the result in the same way as everyone else. He knows he won, but thats not the point

Is it an open arena? Maybe we will get another parachuter in there. Or MacGregor bites Mayweather.

When I watch his fights, it is like he is punching in slow motion. This only gets out of the first round if Mayweather wants it to. i bet lots of MMA fans think that cause in MMA fights can suddenly turn and the person who looked like they were getting beaten can suddenly end it, that it means CG has a shot. lol.
