    Are there any other fights that the scoring of the decision are talked about as much as SRL-Hagler?

    Maybe not talked about half as much, but the Tyson - Douglas scoring was quite controversial.
    Was it two of the judges that had Tyson in front at the time?!
    I'm a Tyson fan but those judges must have been smoking some Japanese good stuff before the fight..

    Judge Bill Recht scored the FOTC 11-4 in favor of Joe Frazier. That might be the worst card ever submitted in ring history!!

    You are so right! Bill must have been watching a different fight - or he was as bigoted as hell.

    this decision wanst that bad. carlos faded late and Lupe mopped the floor with him. that stands out in the judges minds. look what happend in the Antuorfuermo - Corro fight. hugo took the first 11 rounds easy but then stopped fighting while Vito took the last 4 rounds.
