Crapshoot results. I cannot believe Latifi result was unanimous. They have got to get a hold of this judging....How about some folks who can actually watch the fights to startREYES to shock the world tonight...Just think Jones is more susceptible to shots then ever. Reyes a completely different figure than he's seen in some time. Easily could be a Jones TKO but I think +350 is just ridiculous. GO DOM!!
It was utter garbage all night. Got 1 or 2 right and that’s about it.
Reyes won, 48-47, I thought it was pretty clear, but so were the others tonight.
Piss poor pathetic.
I went back & watched it a 2nd time objectively....I found it to be even more 1 sided than before. Round 1: REYES (very clearly). Round 2: REYES (very clearly). Round 3: **This the Rd I found even more troubling, I honestly found it to be dead even. Reyes starts the round with a few shots & has 2 significant flurries where Jones is in trouble. 1 where he's in serious trouble. Following, Jones fails on a takedown then is successful twice. Jones gets Reyes down BUT each time for 1-3 seconds (literally). After that I had it even in final 60-90 secs of round. If anything, I'd pick Reyes again here but will call it a Rd 3 draw. Proud of Rogan/Cruz & Dana for callin ou this BIG problem. That was as big of a screw job as I've ever seen before. And this is why I left boxing & started watching UFC. But hey I'm not surprised, Everything is Corrupt in this Country right now. Final Result: 4-1 Reyes in my non-bias eyes. Reyes is a hell of a guy to take it the way he did.
I felt Reyes won too 48-47. I had him winning 1 and 2 clearly and 3 is up for debate but I had him edging the round.
What needs to be discussed is how one judge gave Jones 49-46 and the same judge gave Giles round 1 or else Krause wins that fight. In addition, Martinez losing 30-27 and Lee losing 30-27 is just robbery. Those decisions were so far off it's almost as if the judges didn't know what they were watching out there.
What I try to do when scoring a fight is to break it down in one minute increments. During each round, who won each 1 minute increment? For example, in round 3 of Ige/Bektic, I had Ige winning the 3rd round 3-2. Now, obviously you have to take into account knockdowns and TDs etc. but that's how I try to look at it.
If you can score a round a 10-10 draw, then you didn't watch it close enough. Watch it again...
I mean every round in every fight, not just this fight...
There is zero reprimanding for the judges at the top levels. I've been saying it for years and years. It's one of the major problems, same with reffing. Hoping this may finally be the final straw because it was quite an embarrassing night for every official in this Sport, myself included. I wouldn't hold my breathe, though...
I, too, score my fights similar to a tug of war contest.
Some judges are not even watching the fight!! I don't know if you watched the preliminaries, but Rogan was livid that one of the judges during a fight (can't remember which fight) was not watching! He was turned around talking and then head down on his phone. Horrible!! That a-hole should not be allowed to judge again! That's one reason/explanation of how you get a Jones 49-46 decision.
You have the hot hand BULL, keep it rolling, I'm not even handicapping next event I'm just tailing you.
Great fight for sure, and hard to say, Woodley off a year hiatus, and Edwards is a formidable opponent for sure...
These fight night cards definitely are the best cards all around these days though...
