Do you think Holyfield deserved to win? (Please only vote if you saw the fight!)

i've seen the fight live, and holyfield robbed.****ing russian mafia

 

holyfield wasn't robbed by any means but valuev was so lucky that it was 46 year old evander he was fighting and not 40 year old evander.

i think people are frustrated because valuev never looked like a fighter who deserved to be called champion during any time in the fight, and he only 'beat' a great fighter because that great fighter didn't have 3 more rounds left in him.

 

I was obviously rooting for Holyfield, but scored the fight very objectively. I scored the first round even. I had Holyfield up by 1 point, if I had scored the first round for Holy he would have won by 2 points. Obviously there were some very close rounds, but Holyfield started way better, was more active and scored the clearer, more telling punches. Valuev basically didn't do **** except for some middle rounds. No way Valuev won this fight. So it's not about giving Holyfield the win in a close fight because he is a legend, no, Holyfield deserved the win.

I just think it's unbelievably sad that a magic night for boxing got ruined by incompetent scoring from the judges.

 

I had the same score on my scorecard.

 

really boring to watch!!!
Holyfield landed the cleaner shots, valuev was "controlling" from the middel of the ring,trying to jab....
i won´t even try to score the ****...

 

Holyfield - he landed more clean shots. Valuev had only 2 of them.

 

:good

Evander Holyfield was robbed!!!!

 

I thought he won 11 rounds. There was one round that was even because neither boxer landed a meaningful punch.

 

Yet another Valuev nut-hugger.

 

It was as if Foreman was disqualified for "rabbit-punching" when he KO'd Moorer.

 

yes
holyfield landed the more cleaner and powerful shots he even dance around the big man of course holyfield didn't throw all that much but Valuev didn't throw **** either, if they show those shitting punch stats it would have even been clearer won. i hate to talk bad about any fighter cause i ain't getting hit but valuev is bad our sport

 

holyfeild won bottom line and i can't believe there are 36 nitwits on here that think otherwiseatschvaluevs own corner told him in the last round that he needed a knockout

 

I watched the fight and was amazed by the decision. One judge gave it 116-12 and whoever that was needs to lose his licence.

Neither fighter did much at all but Holyfield landed the more, effective punches and I struggled to give the freak many rounds (the last one and round 8 or 9 can't remember which exactly).

 

Everybody be sure to vote, I am going to reference this poll on this evenings edition of On The Grind Radio.

 

So far 39 people have voted who didn't see the fight...:-(
