in small fights you make a case for home decisions, but in big fights you generally get better judges who are better paid and less dodgy, though obv it does happen, but if he's up on all of the cards then he's up, maybe you'd be intimidated but don't think the judges would be lol

BBC Radio 5 live.......
Speaking to BBC Radio 5 live, Tony Bellew said: "He is just so hard and so awkward. He is big and he overpowers you. I tried my best and he is probably the best cruiserweight that ever lived. "He is better than what it says on the box. It is heartbreaking because I gave it everything I had. Heavyweights stay away, he takes a great shot and I don't even know if I hurt him. I have been doing this for 20 years, and it is over." |

If the judges view is no good - why have judge since time began always been ringside and not judged the fight on TV, esp as TV has become more advanced so show numerous angles.

In all seriousness is bellew a decent boxer or he just got lucky in his career ????
|
|
By:
Probably to have them right there ringside, but I can't actually answer why.
|

By:
It will be something entrenched as that's how it's always been done.

Judging has been terrible in countless big fights, a judge gave GGG 2 rounds vs Canelo....
Having them watch on TV is a good idea but they just sit where they were always sat before TV existed. Often judged are picked by a promoter. There was one who was doing small hall fights and Eddie gave him a shot at glory on the world title scene. And he duly gave Burns that fight against a guy that practically killed him. |

that's the one I already reference above, it does happen, you do get rogue judges, but sometimes you have to accept that they've seen angles we haven't at home - we're shown whatever angle tv decides to show judges in big fights are often agreed on both sides like tonight, dodgier decisions more expected in smaller fights. |
|
By:
Bellew made the very best of the ability he had (and it was a respectable level, imo). It was a very well managed career
|
|
By:
dodgiest decision ever was Mayweather being robbed of a place in the Olympic final in 96

Roy Jones lost at Olympics which was actually proven fixed. And was total fixed just from watching it as other guy barely lands a punch.
|
|
By:
GGG and Floyd also robbed at OG
|
|
By:
even Loma was robbed in amateurs. and that was his only loss. lol

Why would people want to slag bellew off , i dont get it he was a good fighter and gave it his all in most fights , was a brave fighter and never ducked a challenge
|
|
By:
looking back, Bellew's best hope was to go into "go for broke" mode in round 3 when Usyk looked slightly vulnerable and hope he caught him with one of his big slugging punches
|
|
By:
Usyk would have always known that his tank was far bigger than Bellew's and as soon as he slowed down it would be easy. Bellew did cause him some trouble in early rounds, and during that moment he should have tried to back him into a corner for the last 45 seconds and unleashed
|
|
By:
Lots of British fighters have had dodgy draws or decisions in their favour in recent years. You don't have to try hard to find them. Two of them were on the Card tonight
|
|
By:
Usyk never really looked that vulnerable, not like Bellew actually wobbled him.
|
|
By:
I hope Bellew doesn't turn to commentating now, that's not a voice you want to hear high pitched non stop
|
|
By:
Also Usyk's engine is amazing, as seen in his last few fights, he wont like all the latter rounds in those too.
|
|
By:
Amateurs is definitely corrupt to the core - it's always been at it's worst at the Olympics though.
|
|
By:
He will, like all of the big Sky names end up commentary after retiring.
Froch openly says he doesn't even watch boxing, yet still is always on commentary. |

Agree, Anxious. |

Haye has burned bridges all over the place yet still gets on commentary.

froch is still upset about losing to Ward, can't quite get over it and gets annoyed when people bring it up

Go for broke rarely ever actually works though. Vs anyone skilled, you just wave the storm and let them gas themselves out which they will if they are actually going for broken. And it's much easier said than done anyway unless you are up against a plodder or someone totally gassed just standing there, as not like they will just stand there to be hit.
