Laughable cards and all too predictable.

I had it 116-112 Herrera.

I didn't see much of this fight, but Russian commentators called the decision absurd.

3 years ago i would have been "upset", now im like "meh"

not suprised anymore, like i said, is a corrupt sport.

all other sports have one ruling body, football, cricket, atheletics, but not boxing

If athletics were having multiple bodies there would be multiple 100m champions (although we'd know who was fastest). yes more people caught doping in athletics but reason is its not covered up or ignored like in boxing. boxing has different drug testing formats.

Feel for Herrera he should have had two big wins this year instead he gets two very bad robberies.

Had it 115-114 to Herrera was a close entertaining fight Benavidez gave away the first four easily for me but improved afterwards.

Agreed the judges cards were digusting.

I actually thought Benavidez won. Credit to Herrera for being tough in there and sticking through it, but from about round 4 on, Benavidez was landing the best shots by far. Yeah, Herrera might have landed more punches in some rounds, but Benavidez's punches clearly did more damage and forced Herrera to take counter offensives that were rarely effective.

Robbed again.

American judging is possibly the worst in the world.

Depends on your definition of 'worst'.

We've got some bad outliers, but on averages, I'd say far from it.

Yesterday's bunch of awful decisions show that it is not "far from it". Robbing foreigners is "normal" for all countries, but how Bradley was robbed shows that corruption/dirty money is most likely involved.

I had it 115-114 benevidez. The round I scored even I probably would have given to benevidez if I had to pick. While the scores were too wide, the result was fair imo.
