    I'd give collazo a couple of rounds towards the end when ricky tired up but i don't think the end result can be questioned.
    Hatton's fave always looks like that after a scrap , it's common knowledge fella.
    He wasn't outboxed. Collazo was fitter admittedly but hatton was good in the first half of the fight. he slipped away in the second half but still took a couple of rounds

    The scorecard in one of Mijares' fights when a judge gave it 120-108 to the other guy?

    Have you seen that Ponce de Leon - Penalosa fight? That was also a travesty, with a f'n shameless [shutout] scoring!

    Dlh-Sturm, by far..

    Why is it when this subject comes up, clowns always say ridiculous things like "so and so, BY FAR", or "EASILY this fight, nothing comes close"????

    Is it because you're drama queens and like to exaggerate that fight, or is it because haven't watched or read about enough boxing?

    Both fights between Holmes and Spinks...I think the boxing purists wanted to keep Marciano's legacy intact!!

    Come on, it was only the second bout that was really a bad decision.

    Besides, Holmes himself had been on the receiving end of some very close decisions, like against Spoon and Williams.

    dude your right about DLH and Sturm. Sturm jabbed the hell out him all night, DLH came in overweight and got the decision so he could paid to fight B-hop; which in turn got humiliated.

    That is definitely the worst decision I've seen in the last couple of years. DLH v.s. Tito was also a robbery in my eyes but was close enough to not be the biggest.
