I know the feeling, its annoying when you dont want to know the result of something like the boxing or the football and some twat always ends up telling you lol.
12th March 1988 Pernell Whittaker dropped a split decision to WBC Lightweight Champion Jose Luis Ramirez in France, the first loss of Sweet Pea's career in his first world title fight. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkNQirwh6qY[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNIkSr_V_fI[/ame]
a year ago today Hozumi Hasegwa annihilated Vusi Malinga in a round in Japan to retain his WBC Bantamweight Title. Warning: Japanese commentary likely to make you **** yourself [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12Bzeg_3lSc[/ame]

This fight hurts and disgusts me. Cannot accept the way Barrera was set up to fight till 5th round so Khan could win the decision. Don't get me wrong he probably would of won but the way a legend and warrior was used like that pisses me right off.
I thought that might provoke a reaction I have no doubt Khan would have won the fight but you're right, a ring legend shouldn't be treated like that, total lack of respect. Thats Dave Parris for you tho eh :-(
yeah i don't think i'm only one who didn't like that night. Yep so true so true..Parris is public enemy number 1 all because of **** like that.

Great stuff, Johna. You're putting in a helluva shift, You'll be walking away with the best newcomer award at this rate.
That decision still pisses me off. Even Pacquiao knew he lost at the end, looked a beaten man, almost congratulating Marquez on his ''win''. Still, it wasn't as bad as the decision in the first fight, this one was much closer.
cheers slip, if its between me and 'white powder' i'll be ****ing foaming if i dont get it No-one seemed to be posting much so i kinda just adopted this thread and started pounding it. People have probably got loads of great fights to put on this thread but think they'll upset me if they do haha. I'm quite happy to admit i've got a fairly limited knowledge of the sport pre-1990, some of the knowledge on here is ridiculous, so looking at some of the classic fights is a great way to learn for me
It still pisses me off as well mate, more because of the first fight. This fight was closer and i can just about see why Pac got the decision, the knockdown obviously proved crucial in the end. But its a travesty that JMM will likely retire without a deserved victory over arguably the greatest fighter of our generation. Pacman obviously has a thing for the 15th March, on this day in 2003 he stopped Serikzhan Yeshmagambetov in the 5th round in the Phillipines. A very much work-in-progress, left-hand happy Pac was dropped quite hard in the 4th, (i think) the last time he was knocked down in a fight, but showed great heart to stop Serik in the 5th.
