OMG I can't belive how this went down. I hate nevada judges and am now worried about the OSCAR and FLoyd fight. I had Barerra winning 115 to 113. There was a definate knockdown and jay Nady ruled horribly. Screw Nevada. Barerra clearly won this fight and I am pissed as ever. What a take away.

Was pathetic. I am so against nevada scoring, as I had it ecatchly the same as H. Lederman. Barerra 115 marques 113. Pitiful no call on the obvious knockdown . Marquez was the better boxer clearly and this fight hurt me. I broke down and bout it for a (pardon me) bull**** decision.

I meant to say Barerra, my bad. The 7th round was definately a knockdown. I am getting sick of my scorecards being nearly identical to lederman's who I think scores it right everytime, and the "judges" scoring it so far from our cards. They need to do something to improve the accuracy here.

Was the Taylor/Hopkins fight in Nevada and what about Taylor/Winky? Just curious. The fight was worth the money but the results were not.

I do not understand how so many people including every one of the commentators were baffled at the horrible scoring and nothing is done about it. Is there no justice that goes along with something like this? I may sound crazy but if 99 percent of fight fans saw this fight at around a 2 or 3 round decision/draw how can BOXING let this bullshat judging keep happening. They can't just turn a cold shoulder at 3 people doing the opposite of what their job is meant to be.

Also.......this is why many people will not watch/buy in to boxing. I have tried turning many people on to my favorite sport but they see fights like this one and decide that it is either rigged or just bs. For a first time PPV watcher seeing the scorecards like that I'm sure it would be their last PPV or even boxing fight at that. Something needs to be done, or I may even start to look away insert a tear right HERE.

if the knocdown had been scored corectly i would have had the fight to barrera by 4 rounds going into the 8th round. with nady taking away the point and rulling no knockdown i gave the 7th to marquez 10-8 so obviously i had it level. i had barrera at the end of the fight by 2 points 115-113 but im with you guys here you could argue some of the rounds were a bit close.

the judging in the fight was terrible again and its all to frequint now in LV. :thumbsdown:
We scored this one the same. I had it the exact way you said on this one.

Nobody on HBO said a thing? I remember Jim Lampley and Larry Merchant both commenting on how inaccurately lopsided the scorercards were. I would be cool with a 2-3 round decision for Marquez but come on. I have also watched the fight twice and originally had it 115 to 113 Barerra and my second view I had a draw. If the knockdown was scored correctly and the point was not deducted Barerra would still be my winner.

Do you guys think a second time around would be brutal because Barerra feels he was "cheated?" I could see a potential fight of the year going down.

I can't watch UFC unless it's Chuck fighting or maybe a couple other guys.

Bruce Buffer tries so hard to sound like his Older brother before all the UFC fights. It's so damn funny!!!

I will however, never look away from boxing.
