Rewatched fights and changed
Rewatched fights and changed
A thread to discuss fights that you have watched and rewatched (and maybe again) where you changed your mind about the score and who won?
Re: Rewatched fights and changed
Immediately what springs to mind for me is Floyd vs Oscar.
The first time i watched the fight I had it scored to Oscar...
A load of years later (during one of Floyd's hiatus's) I revisited it and the second time around I had scored it as a draw...

I had that 9-3 Floyd, watched again after so many calling it close and had the same score. Still don't see how someone can find 5 rounds for Oscar.

Trinidad-de La Hoya..
Originally I had Trinidad by 116-112 but now all I can come up with is 114-114.
Re: Rewatched fights and changed
I've always had Castillo edging over Floyd in the 1st fight, but, after I rewatched it last summer or so, I had Floyd winning close.
I had different variations of Canelo-Golovkin bouts. Now I stick to Golovkin winning the 1st one and the 2nd one being an either going affair (draw after the last rewatching).

Re: Rewatched fights and changed
why do doods change their scores?
less emotion /less persuaded by commentary second time around?
there' s also the risk i guess of letting other people's input about what happened affect your rewatching, so it can go both ways

For me, I think that it's favourtism. I give the guy that I want to win too much credit. Thinking stuff like;margaret thatcher wrote: ↑10 Mar 2021, 02:11 why do doods change their scores?

"Well, he didn't do too badly there.... Landed a few shots... Covered up well"
That kind of thing...
Re: Rewatched fights and changed
I can see a point change, but not more than that. I watched Trinidad v De La Hoya live and scored it 115-114 for Tito. Scored it again a few years ago and had it 114-114. Also had Lockridge edging Chavez when I watched it live, called it a draw the next time.
Re: Rewatched fights and changed
As for Mayweather-Castillo 1: Live, I had Floyd edging it; on replay, I gave it to Castillo 8-4.

But I thought Cotto beat Canelo Alverez both of whom I like.
