    What fights have you seen and come to the conclusion (especially after multiple viewings) that the only fair result is a draw?

    Well no one won or deserved to win when Deleon fought Nelson.

    No one lost but the audience...

    Pacquiao - Marquez 1. i scored it for Marquez by a single point but i also had 2 rounds that could have gone either way.
    That was the perfect outcome for that fight and i am happy with it.

    The boxing press widely felt that Coetzee-Pinklon Thomas was well scored as a draw, and lauded the judges for appraising it as they did. A draw was less controversial than a win in either favor would have proved.

    Meldrick Taylor-Howard Davis Jr was a legit draw, neither had an edge.

    Winky Wright vs Jermaine Taylor was one of those fights where each guy seemed to alternate rounds back and forth

    by the end it was extremely close and its hard to pick a winner in that one

    Hopkins vs Pascal I was an easy draw for me to score as the rounds were obvious, Hopkins won more but the knockdowns leveled out

    Good answers people. I called Winky-Taylor for Winky, but that's perhaps because I'm such a big fan of him.

    Any of the first thee Pac JMM bouts.

    I scored all three for Pac, but all three for JMM or any combination of close decisions or draws would acceptable.


    The fourth bout, not so much.

    None in particular, but when both sides are angry and feel that they have been totally ****ed. to me that is as legit as a draw can get.
    When one side is smiling like a jack o lantern after the decision, it is questionable; Howard Davis vs Meldrick Taylor is one example to me.
    Meldrick pissed, Howard Davis acting like a lotto winner = gift draw to Davis.

    Draws suck period. You fight 12 or 15 rounds and you get nothing.
