I was the same mate I watched it again and tried to be as fair as possible. Ritson got completely outclassed.

O’Connor also had Tommy Ward 4 rounds up in his fight :lol:

And to think 'we' have the cheek to whinge about unfair scoring 'away from home' in Germany, for example.

I was wondering if Beltrán - Burns was worse, but after a visit to YouTube, it wasn't. A con, but not quite as blatant.

Has O'Connor had to confirm which rounds he had Ritson winning?

I was also fairly disturbed about the huge confidence in Ritsons corner after getting tagged for 12 rounds. As if they knew something we didn't............

I watched the fight pissed and after reading some of the comments on Sunday morning I thought I might have misjudged it. I watched the full fight again Sunday night and couldn’t believe how much Vasquez actually dominated.
 
I watched brook slate Eddy Hearns on IFL last night. He also said it'll be announced on Monday where uk fans can watch his fight with Crawford.

I think we took inspiration from them. We're just as bad now.
Although we haven' t quite got round to rining the bell 90seconds too early to end a round to save the home-fighter.

That did happen on a Warren show a few years back actually. Maccarinelli had been knocked down and looked like he was about to be stopped in the 1st round of a British title defence so they rang the bell 47 seconds early.

everything almost has to be doesn't it? There's just no money in it otherwise.
Usky is a PPV level fighter, he was unified CW champ and is a mandatory for the HW title.

Is anyone paying £14.95 for a 1st round knockout? How has Chisora even got this fight?

Total joke but not unsurprising.

How hard would it be to get a computer to score all the blows landed and give a summary of every round? That would show how bad the scoring was.

Ritson was nearly 3rd in a 2 horse race!

Isn't that what Compubox does?

Mind, punches landed isn't the only measure of who's doing the best. A computer can't judge power, or how cleanly a shot landed.

Computers do show power shots and normal punches. In a one sided fight like Ritson's they would give a very good indication of who won each round.
