    I think what was more astonishing, was that even though Mundine was dominating the fight before he got caught from that temple shot, the judges had him behind on the scorecards.

    Impossible to win in Germany, knocking the guy out will get you a draw at most. No wonder Sturm's passport has been collecting dust for so many years.

    Not astonoshing at all. Was just what everyone expected! Although I did think one of the judges had Mundine ahead.

    Jess did file a petition to I believe the IBF (who appointed the judges and the aforementioned wanker tillerman).

    Never came to anything as normal where Ottke was concerned.

    Nothing was ever going to happen because the only thing they could have done would be to order a re-match in England! More chance of a romantic shag weekend with the pope!

    Hehe I remember that one.. Rumours are that Sauerland gave the ref a free coupon for the all-you-can-eat buffet as a reward for his help that evening

    I'm in the same boat.

    Ottke did rally in the championship rounds, but mainly due to Reid being so demoralized by that point.

    I get angry any time I'm reminded about this farce.

    It's hard to beleive an official could be so brazen in their corruption and, just as bad, nothing would be done about it.

    The only heartening thing is that Ottke's name is mud in the boxing community and his only legacy is that of a fighter who relied on corrupt officials to steal victories. This, despite actually being a pretty good fighter.

    Why?

    How does Australia figure in with Ottke's adventures?

    This fight is just as bad as the one vs Mads Larsen. Biggest scammer germany has ever produced
