    Im a big heavyweight boxing fan and also am trying to improve my judging and just want to watch close or controversial fights

    dont care if they are boring or exciting, just kinda lookin for high profile close ones

    so far I scored Huck and Povetkin

    to be scored

    Helenius vs Chisora (live i thought Chisora won)

    Valuev vs Chagaev (live and last viewing thought Chag won thoroughly)

    Ruiz vs Valuev 1 (had it to Ruiz last time out)

    Ruiz vs Holyfield (i know hes not fan friendly but his fights are close)

    Ruiz vs Chagaev (watched bits of it thought it was interesting)

    Byrd vs Golota (never saw it heard it was pretty close if not controversial)

    Maskaev Rahman (its a KO but a very good fight til the KO)

    mid way thru Brewster vs Meehan which live i thought was a robbery but that was yrs ago

    any additions would be nice

    Norton vs Holmes many thought was close.

    Ali vs Norton 2+3 - I felt norton won the third fight handily

    Lewis vs holyfield 1 - Most agree Lewis was robbed

    Bowe vs Holyfield 2 - Could have gone either way, controversial because of fanman.

    Don't make him sit through Holyfield/Valuev. That's not humane. Boxing fans don't do that to other boxing fans :lol:

    Adamek/Chambers was very close, and controversial. And a decent HW fight. Check that out, and score it for us. Been a lot of debate over that one.

    Let's see here. . .

    Fury/John McDermott I

    Haye/Valuev - similar to Holyfield/Valuev, you might want to skip this one. But it's at least funny seeing valuev got wobbled.

    Report back when I think of others.

    LOL but seriously you do not want to put yourself through 48 minutes of torture by watching Valuev/Holyfield. Just leave that one to rest.

    Frazier/Ali I. I felt Frazier pretty clearly won, but there's some people out there who swear Ali won.

    Witherspoon vs Mercer - Witherspoon deserved the win, not exactly a robbery but Mercer should have gotten a draw at best. Very good fight though.

    Lewis vs Mercer - Very close fight, Lewis just edged it.

    Mercer vs Holyfield another close fight involving mercer, all 3 of these fights ran in sequence.

    Holmes vs Witherspoon - Many felt spoon should have got the decision.

    I thought it was closer than 11-4 which one judge had it. I posted my score on classic a while ago, I had 144-142 Frazier I believe.

    Hyfield vs SNV was one of the worst HWT i have ever seen but you ask you it.

    Morrison vs foreman.

    Foreman was the best!!! Such a warrior.

    how was it close? Arreola's face was ****ed up badly, Adamek's didn't show any damage, he also outlanded Arreola 197-127, he clearly won the fight

    Ike v Tua.
    Any result is ok really. either guy could have got the nod, could call it a draw and it's hard to argue. Extremely close fight.

    Be far more exciting to watch than some of the other fights posted.
