Canelo v Mayweather

[SEraider]

Real good fight.  Mayweather again wins.

Good fighting... Terrible judging.

No surprise that it was the same woman who blew the Pacquiao/bradley fight. The worst part is the promoters have no control, the commission is ran by the government. You need a judge who knows what it's like to get in the face, otherwise this BS happens.

I doubt she ever gets a judging gig for a high dollar fight again. She cooked her goose with this one.

You put them in the same category?

You put them in the same category?  

After the Lewis vs. Holyfield fight?   Absolutely.   It was rigged and the female judge could not even explain how she scored, when interviewed after the fight.   That was the last fight I watched.

I kinda thought Anderson Silva threw his last fight...  said he was retiring. Now hes set for a rematch..

He lost millions. No more GSP, Jon Jones, or Roy Jones JR. super fights. The money he'll get from a rematch won't even be close.

Ok, maybe a bad judge, but not wrestling.  Maybe a dysfunctional and corrupt sport, but still a sport.

I wonder how many people and how much was made on her throwing that vote? Blatantly crooked.

MMA fighters don't usually make that kind if money. A fighters money making window is very small, and it's extremely rare for purse to be over 1 million. The most anyone in the UFC has been payed is 5 million, and that was Brock Lesnar. That may sound like a lot of money, but not over a life time.

That's very true what you said.  I think also that the MMA PPV business model is more evenly spread out for each fight, but in smaller numbers due to the frequency of the PPV.

Boxing's fighters are actually poorer with very few at the top rich because of very few marquee names and few PPV.  There is not even a draw in the heavy weight division anymore which is sad.
