Tired of bad judging

[Severn]

I've been watching boxing since I've been a kid and bad decisions are just a sad part of combat sports. It happens and as I said in other threads I wasn't surprised at all by the decision even though I had Rampage winning three rounds.

It seems that everybody is complaining about the decision but Rampage himself,who said after the decision was announced,"HE WHOOPED MY ASS"
Not to mention he said that he'd bet his whole purse for the fight that it wouldn't go the distance,oh and I almost forgot,Juanito(his MGR)said he'd
retire if Forrest won. Rampage knows just as all fighters know,that if you leave it in the hands of the judges,there's always a chance to lose.

It sucks but it's here to stay for now... look at the Tanner Grove fight... how on earth was that a split decision?

Rampage jinxed himself with the "I bet you our fight don't go to no decision..." and he lost his bet...

The fight was good, the crowd wanted Forrest to win and he was the more active fighter... If you look at judges and their scoring history they usually give it to the more active, pressing fighter... Wasn't that their argument for Bisping Hamil? Now this fight was nowhere NEAR as lopsided as that one, but the judges take into account punches and kicks thrown regardless of having them land, moving forward, takedowns... that's the only consistency I can see...

As a human there's only so much you can do when you're tired and beat up to finish a fight, but what you can't do is expect for the judges to see it your way...

Either way bad judges are here to stay...

I hope Rampage doesn't welsh on his bet with Forrest.
