    This lady, C.J Ross was involved in the Pacman fight fiasco last year, the other referee that gave the fight to Bradley that night was sacked

    Then she is involved in the biggest fight in boxing History,and scores a very one sided contest , a draw.

    Think of the billions of people watching the fight that night, from the causal sporting fan to the boxing enthusiast. I don't bet, but I am sure there were millions lost with that kind of decision?Why is this allowed to happen? Is there any integrity left in this sport? Floyds reaction says it all!

    Even Bieber seems annoyed at it.

    It is scary that there is no outrage. She was involved in the Manny Pacquiao vs Timothy Bradley fight, She gave the fight to Bradley, the other guy that gave the fight to Bradley was fired! That was one of the most controversial decisions in recent boxing history !

    She is then is in charge of the biggest fight in human history! Mayweather Vs alvarez . Billions of people around the universe watching Mayweather score a very one sided contest .....and she scores a draw ... why?

    She should not be anywhere near a ring again. Period.

    Disgrace of a judge, and that's saying something in boxing

    There are some strong suggestions that a fix was attempted, for the draw, and if Canelo had gotten anyways closer it would have worked, only required a two round swing for the majority draw.

    Is she just completely incompetent or paid off I wonder?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25,953 ✭✭✭✭kryogen


    You would hope its just incompetence (but then how would someone like that get to her position) but I cant shake the feeling its more sinister then that, it is boxing, and even if you were wide it would be hard to call that fight a draw

    she was paid

    she was paid

    Without Doubt
