First Cave-Escandon, then Herrera-Benevidez, now Bradley-Chaves. Just terrible.

Does Arum really need to keep Chaves in his 147 jerk circle?

Harold Lederman couldn't score a fight if his life depended on it. I'd be the first to admit it's probably hard on these Boxing Judges to score a fight. In just about 90% or more of these so called robberies on HBO I'd believe the Boxing Judges more than I'd believe the crying and bitching by the HBO crew cause they got it wrong.

Lederman's card wasn't shown on the broadcast I watched and I had it on mute; numerous members of the ringside media who watched in person also strongly disagreed with the decisions. What is your thought on the scores for the latter two fights?

Out of interest, did you watch Cave Vs Escandon? A non-HBO show with possibly the worst "result" of the weeked
