This Weekend in Terrible Judging - Canelo/Saunders Edition By Verklemptomaniac on May 7, 2021, 10:14am EDT 12
Hi, I m Verklemptomaniac. You may remember me from my fanpost series a from ~2016-2019 tracking terrible judging in boxing. I had to stop putting those together after I got a new job that cut into my free time, but I haven t lost my general outrage at the number of awful judges who keep getting assigned to major fights. So when Billy Joe Saunders questions whether he could get a fair shake from the judges tomorrow in his fight against Canelo Alvarez, and a couple of people asked if I could put together an analysis of the judges for the fight, I realized I had enough time last night to pull that together!

For nearly a year and a half, Jarrett Hurd would simply shrug his shoulders whenever he was asked when he would return to the ring. Still, even without a concrete date, the former unified 154-pound champion worked steadily on his craft. Now, after waiting patiently, it appears as though he’ll return to the ring in just a matter of months.
According to Chris Mannix of Sports Illustrated, both Hurd and fringe contender Luis Arias, are currently deep in negotiations for a showdown that would take place on the undercard of the recently announced Floyd Mayweather vs Jake Paul exhibition matchup on June 6th. Although no deal has yet been finalized, both sides appear to be headed towards the finished line.
