But regardless of the judges nationality, there's any advantage of fighting at home with crowd noise to missed punches and who knows where these judges alliances lay while being inside a foreign country. Whether they have a British driving license or not, it's really easy to give the home fighter certain liberties when it comes to close rounds based upon the hometown fighter.verlichte wrote:It frustrates me that people prefer to make impulsive premature derogatory claims that are simply untrue, rather than perform any fact checking.caldo2025 wrote:Excellent point.

None of the judges were British.
To repeat what has already been said, none of the judges were British. Two of them were from America, whilst the third one was from Peurto Rico.
None of the officials, such as the referee or the judges, were British. If there was bias, it would have been inevitably caused by the 90,000 drunken crowd that roared with excitement whenever Anthony Joshua decided to move his arms, regardless as to whether his punches landed or not.
As a human being that is trying to evaluate a fight objectively, it must be really difficult to not be influenced by the noise emited by British fight fans, as per the scoring of the GGG-Brook fight.
