    Povetkin v Huck was a close fight imo.

    Rios - Abril hands down

    A prime example of how just having a "name" will win you a fight

    You can literally lose every round on a Top Rank card and still get the decision. Boxing is ****ed.

    Cloud vs Campillo was a bigger robbery than Huck-Povetkin. I agree than Huck won but it wasn't a wide margin.

    Rios-Abril was the most one sided robbery - There was no doubt Abril should have won

    Pacquiao-Bradley was the most shocking because it doesn't often happen to a legitimate PPV star like that unless it is against another PPV star (like ODLH vs Trinidad).

    I accidentally hit Povetkin/Huck, but meant to hit Abril/Rios.

    Agree with Rudyard, Cloud vs. Campillo was bad enough to be listed.
