i went to national pal in oxnard ca
it was terrialbe in how the judges score the bouts.were or how did they get the scoring in allen russel bouts, it was crazy for him to have lost that bout like that,the fans was very please of how he took the bad call and continue smiling and walk his young brother through nights of boxing to a national chmpionship.winner never loses.


Now lets get real let like bob
told bill.the natioal pal judges who sit around the ring by rank.
The question is, is the boxer real being protect in the best interest the tourament and rules by these
higher ranking judge in professal opinion in decision making,decide who (win, and who loses).that a big job 10,20,30,40 years of this kind of service and not been test mental or phycial change that could cause change his or her in opinion and decision making.you and i know your interity could be become questionable when have not been tested since the begining and you only been test on the rules and requirment of the boxer and the tourament. when was it last,did you have a eyes check,did you have 20/20 eye vision, are you a deibet/do have high blood presure,or old timey. In doctors eye these illness cause lost some vision if not all.if judge who are of age that sit at the boxing ring and servicing a competition with a decision of his or her, could they interity to be question! did they see what they saw,if suffer from any of these illness.is it fair to the boxer Is USA BOXING PROTECTING US.have the decisin maker have made up the step,but not yet been test. HANDUP. AND DON,T GET TO DUCK.
