Renowned boxer Nonito Donaire has suffered a controversial loss in his latest match as declared by the referee. His wife, Rachel Donaire, expressed her dissatisfaction with the verdict to the public. Though from the audience's perspective, the match seemed evenly fought, the final decision did not sway in Donaire's favor. This event has spurred a broad discussion about the judging system in boxing.

Boxing is a high-profile sport in Japan, and decisions made in high-stakes matches are often highly scrutinized by fans and critics alike. Japanese society, known for its emphasis on fair-play and justice, has expressed mixed reactions, with many echoing Rachel's sentiments and calling for more transparency in scoring methods.

In the US and EU, such controversial decisions also draw significant attention and scrutiny. However, the reaction often extends beyond calls for fair-play and delves into debates about the need for systemic change in scoring and judging mechanics within boxing.
