I never saw this fight but I’ve heard some people over the years allude to it being somewhat of a robbery and feel Patterson should have gotten the decision. What do people here think ?
1.10-9 Ellis 2.10-9 Patterson 3.10-9 Ellis 4.10-9 Patterson 5.10-9 Ellis 6.10-9 Ellis 7.10-9 Ellis 8.10-9 Patterson 9.10-9 Ellis 10.10-9 Patterson 11.10-9 Ellis 12.10-9 Ellis 13.10-9 Patterson 14.10-9 Patterson 15.10-9 Ellis 144-141 to Ellis no robbery. What is it with people named Floyd having delusional fans?
most people definitely feel he won both Quarry fights. The consensus on the Ellis match seems to be divided among fans
I have no problem with Patterson edging both fights against Quarry, but I have Ellis winning the fight against Patterson. Floyd simply "fell asleep" in several rounds and did almost nothing letting Ellis shade the vital swing rounds. I think a lot of people were let astray because of Howard Cosell´s pro Patterson commentary.
