    If they *must* have female judges at world title fights for whatever reason there are girls out there with the correct credentials who could do the job, and do it well. Laila Ali comes to mind, there'd be no wincing, blinking, or screaming when bombs landed from her side of the ring you wouldn't think . Just a thought...

    ^It was a woman judge that robbed Lennox Lewis of his titles against Evander Holyfield with another one of the worst decisions in recent memory.

    The people who run the WBC, WBA and others are no more than corrupt mafia figures pretty much as are the people who run the Formula One and World Cup Football.

    The sport is often overlooked because of greed and bookmakers offers.

    I remember Jeff Fenech, an Aussie 3 times World boxing champion clearly outpointing Azumah Nelson in America and then received a draw which meant Nelson retained his title.

    Mayweather was about a 3/1 favourite and the over 11.5 was also favourite (favourite to go the distance), so 20/1 for majority is pretty big odds. Maybe the bookies were paying out millions coz they posted bad odds. Are you sure this was 20/1? Wish I saw it I'd snap bet a 3/1 fav likely to go the distance at 20/1 for a split decision.
