It's nothing to do wi being bitter mate it was a close fight and robbery is a a bit severe but O'Conner proved that Simpson had very little chance of winning the fight.jBacca wrote:I knew the Jocks were bitter but christ....
It was a really close fight which I could only score when I got in and watched it on me Sky+. Horrible watching it live because you don't know who's hand is getting raised, but on watching again I gave it to Smith by two.
Robbery? Turn it in boys.

Id like to see the posts on here if roles were reversed, if that card was given against Smith there would still be chairs gettin thrown!
And lets be honest, the same case could be argued for either fighter winning.

Agreed mate either could have got the nod i thought simmo won but it was very close. The point is Simpson is always on the wrong end of these decs.Emmseegee wrote:Id like to see the posts on here if roles were reversed, if that card was given against Smith there would still be chairs gettin thrown!

As most people have said it was a close fight and could of gone either way, I thought Smith done enough to nick it, but lets get serious this was not a robbery, both guys thought they won and you could make an argument for both. So lets not take away the show these lads put on, Boss fight by 2 Boss lads Congratulations Swifty.

It was a close fight no robbery, I thought Simpson did enough to win it myself though.
i don't think Richie Woodhall was completely biased against Simpson Billy. he was picking up on Simpsons work as well as Smith.
It didn't seem that way to me when I watched it I may be wrong though

True i wasn't too impressed wi the sky commentary. Richie Woodall scoring a 10-8 in the first was a joke. No point in a 3rd fight really although it'd be good tae see.

Well said Billy, glad you didn`t have a rant i know some people expected you to and would be within your rights, but this shows class. Good luck to John also a top guy with the heart of a lion, he is well respected by anyone who follows boxing. Keep doing what your doing with your boys up there Billy, they know how to entertain and never give up
