What's the point of judges if you're just gonna give the win to the home fighter regardless of what happens at the end of 12 rounds?

I dont know much about boxing but fuck me that is an absolute corrupt decision right there. People complain about VAR but this is more corrupt.

If Taylor genuinely thought he won that then he's utterly deluded.

Makes you really dislike a boxer when they speak like that after being blatantly beaten. Especially when they even go on to say they don't see a reason for a rematch.

Never got the impression Taylor was like that before then, my opinion of him has gone way down.

I was embarrassed for him at the end of 12th when he was celebrating, totally outclassed.

I rarely watch boxing at all, but just happened to turn on ss1 as the ring walks were happening and decided to keep watching this fight. Never heard of either of these boxers. But saw that Taylor was the champion and crowd favourite. Watched the 12 rounds and was feeling sorry for Taylor losing all his belts in front of his home crowd.

I was completely shocked when those scorecards were read out... Wow. What a robbery. How much were those judges paid to score the fight like that??
