I was able to collect 59 Press Scores for the Boxing News Site for the Vera-Chavez fight at the weekend where not one Press member scored for Chavez.
My Score was 96-94 Vera and my full card is on the site

0 out of 59?
I haven't gotten round to watching this yet, but I'm definitely more interested too now. Was it that bad of a decision?

September has been a particularly bad month for poor high profile decisions

Thanks for the replies guys. The judges should be demoted or suspended, its the only way they are gonna clean up our sport.

Got to feel for Vera. This bullshit dec has surely cost him a possible world title fight.
Chavez is a fat headed joke.

Virgil Hunter has suggested he saw the judges be "nobbled"

Vera had the weight against him, was the away fighter and after all that had to make do with judges being advised on how to score each round. If the judges are being nobbled to ensure a victory for Jr, who's going to want to fight him?
