Cant stand the guy but hes spot on imo

Jake Paul is currently being sued by Eddie Hearn for $100 million on defamation case and now the boxing judge joins in too lol
“I still think Amanda Serrano won the fight [over Katie Taylor],” Paul told IFL TV this past September. “Then you see how this judge Glenn Feldman, who had the biggest gap between Taylor and Serrano. Everyone pretty much had it a draw… a draw or that Amanda won. But there’s this judge, Glenn Feldman, who scored it such a big gap for Taylor, gave rounds that Amanda clearly won, to Taylor.
“Then this judge, Glenn Feldman, shows up in Saudi and scores Anthony Joshua to win [over Oleksandr Usyk]. Everyone who watched the fight [knows] it’s not a split decision. Usyk had a runaway victory, clearly won the fight. This judge, Glenn Feldman, gives it to Anthony Joshua? It’s like a repeated crime here. This type of ****, I’m going to call it out here in boxing because it’s ********. Clearly, this guy is getting paid money by Matchroom Boxing.”

Unless I missing something, he is going down the legal route to clear his name as he doesn't believe he'll get a fair hearing from the boxing board.

Problem is he’s already been found guilty in the eyes of the public. It doesn’t really matter what the outcome is.

In someways I can sort of see why things are usually dealt with behind closed doors, as the court of public opinion is a harsh place.

Agreed, I believe it should be kept behind closed doors but it was leaked. I am torn, as a professional athlete you are ultimately responsible for making sure you don't leave yourself open to this type of thing.

This is all assuming the tests are accurate beyond reasonable doubt etc.

I saw an interview with Eddie and he alluded to the fact that Conor may well end up with a ban. So not sure what to think.

Although he is obviously ultimately responsible their is a difference between having traces of substances in your system and actually knowingly taking substances.

He can prove that particular judge is on Eddies payroll? Which is what the defamation lawsuit is actually about.

It’s nothing new though. Remember the judge that had Clenelo winning against Floyd? About as one sided as a fight could get.

Isnt that just standard before an investigation like this?

Apparently his license had expired and he has chosen not to renew because of the misconduct charges the BBBofC have placed on him. Nothing to do with the vada allegations Conor feels the BBBofC are dealing with him in a biased and unfair manner.

Definitely this. There is no reason, trace or otherwise, that this should be in his system. The onus is now on him to prove how something like that would've been in his system. He got caught juicing and had he just owned it right away this would probably all look a lot better

Then the rules need to be changed. It’s absolutely ridiculous that the BBBofC do not act upon Vada findings. Vada May as well not exist. It’s a mess and governing bodies need to sort their **** out.

How about this though. BJS fails a dugs test with Vada yet gets away with it on a technicality due to Ukad permitting it to be used out of competition. Frank Warren can button it that’s for sure.

Jake Paul vs Anderson Silva tonight.

Who've we got?

I'm leaning to Silva. But I've been surprised by Paul in his last fights.
