He's almost always right on the money.

I really think that most of the judges don't actually score the fight as it progresses. They wait until the last round to decide who won the earlier rounds too. I guess it's always gonna be a part of boxing.
If I'm not mistaken, the judges actually have to hand in their scores after every round. Probably to avoid that very thing.

I love watching George Foreman. When he's not talking, he stands there with that stupid little toothy grin on his face. Then he'll start talking. As soon as he's done talking though, he puts that stupid toothy grin back on his face. Cracks me up every time.
