    Because their suggestions are good, particularly Coggi-Gonzalez. Anyways, get over it.

    No, it wasn't. People who say Taylor "deserved" a few extra seconds say that Chavez deseverd to have the rules bend against him for sentimental reasons. A boxing match is 12 rounds, not 11 rounds and 58 seconds. If Taylor would have gotten the win, it would have shown the limitations of the scoring system. Taylor landed more and was very flashy but he never slowed Chavez down. Chavez, with fewer punches, beat down Taylor's body and could have killed him an a 15 rounder. Taylor was the better boxer that night but Chavez was the better fighter and won within the legit rules.

    On the list, Chavez-Whitaker.

    Whitaker-Ramirez, Coggi-Gonzalez, Escalera-Everett, and Martinez-Cintron for fights not included on this list.

    Chavez vs. Whitaker and it's not close.

    Paulie won a close but clear decision, whereas Whitaker won a wide and clear decision.

    As for Bute vs. Andrade, get over it. There was 4 seconds left in the fight and Bute stood up within ten seconds easily. HBO played some crap about the count taking too long so they could hype up Bute vs. Andrade II and you all fell for it. It doesn't matter how long the count was because the 12th round was over and Bute was on his feet.

    Whitaker-Chavez was one of the biggest robberies in boxing history.

    Bute/Andrade is a ridiculous nomination. The guy was ****ing up. What's the problem?

    It'd be a ****ing Taylor/Chavez situation if the ref had stopped it.

    Malignaggii diaz I? it wasnt even a robbery, i dont care much about either guy, and had diaz like 1 point ahead after the final bell. The choice is obvious, but whole thread doesnt have much sense. Its not like these fights had many similiar aspects.
