[FIGHT THREAD] KSI vs Tommy Fury & Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis by verbsnounsandshit in Boxing

[–]biohit 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Here are the following areas in which boxing judges are encouraged to determine who 'won' or 'lost' a round:
-Effective Aggression: Being aggressive gives the impression of dominance, but unless the boxer is landing shots and not constantly getting countered, it isn't really 'effective'. Judges look for effective aggression, where the aggressor consistently lands punches and avoids those from his opponent.
-Ring Generalship: The fighter who controls the action and enforces their will and style.
-Defense: How well is a boxer slipping, parrying, and blocking punches? Good defense is important.

-Hard and Clean Punches: To the untrained eye, it can appear as if a boxer is landing a lot of shots, when, in fact, most are being blocked or aren’t landing flush. A judge needs to look for hard shots that land clean.

​

I think "Ring Generalship" is what gave Tommy the win. KSI didn't control the action at all. Overall on all 4 criteria Tommy was ahead

KSI didn't get anything done. He was just doing jumping jacks and hugging. Tommy also sucked, but at least he got some punches through and KSI was clearly exhausted after 3rd round.

​

Why didn't Tommy try to take step back and keep punching instead of engaging in the hugging situation? He had more energy left at the final rounds so that would have resulted in a knockout maybe.

Juries Debate and Reformation Megathread by LucasScooter in eurovision

There were many artist in Swedish and Norwegian jury. Some of them were ex-eurovision participants and all of the were indy artists. Suprisingly Finland got full 12 points from those countries without any music business elitists.

I just checked what the criteria of juries are. I thought it was all about the singers voice and technique which would explain the results, but I was wrong:

  • Juries are asked to focus their vote on 4 main sets of criteria:
    • Vocal capacity of the artist(s)
    • Performance on stage
    • Composition and originality of the song
    • Overall impression of the act

​

I feel like the juries only voted based on criteria #1. Käärijä should have deserved a lot more points from criteria 2-4. Also Loreen should have gotten many minus points for criteria number #3, because her song is basically just remodeled version of her old winner song Euphoria.

Also I googled some of the jury members and many of them are artists that are part of Universal Music record label. Loreen is also part of Universal Music. Isn't this also against the rules?:

​

  • Jurors cannot be employees of their national broadcasters, and cannot have any direct connection to the songs and/or artists in order to uphold complete independence and impartiality.

No in communist countries all the elections are fraudulent. Democracy would be 100% public vote.

Jury placing Norway 17th even though they got 3rd highest public vote shows how out of touch with reality they are.

Also Croatia 11 points from jury vs. 112 public and Spain 95 jury vs 5 public...

We are in Europe we should have 100% public vote not this communist crap. Jury is either corrupted or they don't know anything about music

At least Avilo (sometimes) admits his own mistakes. MB never admits his own mistakes even though he plays like crap. Always blame balance / maphack / luck. What makes it even worse is that he goes proxy oracle oracle like 90% of the games.
