    JMM vs Manny 3 wasnt against popular opinion

    It was a blatant robbery

    The crowd booed in disgust

    An immediate rematch took place where Manny knew he couldnt beat the old man without his steroids

    But i digress.... popular consensus was that Manny got taken to the cleaners in their 3rd fight

    I remember some posters scoring Marquez/Barrera for Barrera... One of those fights with forum murmurs of poor or even controversial scoring... but then it died down and never really came up again.

    A lot of people did.

    Edit: Dunno why this posted before I hit submit. Anyway, on the topic of Taylor, I thought he drew the first fight with Hopkins and won the second.

    I seem to remember feeling Morales won the first fight with Barrera. I think many scored rounds on the last half minute rather than the full three minutes

    Thought Khan beat Peterson though not sure if that is against popular opinion?

    Thought De LA Hoya was a draw against Mosley in their first fight

    I had Dirrell clearly outboxing Froch.

    I had Ruslan beating Algeiri.

    I had Tarver beating Glen Johnson in the first fight.

    I had Matthysse clearly beating Devon Alexander.

    I had Kovalev clearly beating Ward.

    I had Roy Jones Jr clearly beating Tarver in fight 1 although a lot of fans say Tarver was the rightful winner (I disagree)

    I had Amir Khan beating Lamont Peterson.

    I had Danny Garcia barely beating Lamont Peterson as well although most fans say Peterson was the rightful winner ( I disagree)

    I had Pac winning the 3rd Marquez fight and losing the 2nd. Close fights but that seems to be the opposite of the so called "Educated Fan" thought.

    Yeah, I thought a lot more of Murray's shots were slipped by Sergio than people thought, and I didn't think the second half was all that dominant for Murray, there wee a few close rounds that could have gone either way.
