    No way in Hell did Ali win the FOTC:-(..

    Frazier had his ass down and almost out in the 15th, Killed Ali's body all night, and Out hustled Ali all night long, Ali was visibly spent after only 6 rounds..

    I watched the fight 2x and scored 9 rounds for Joe both times..

    Mercer vs Lewis was a disgrace, Mercer won it by a country mile.

    I think Tiberi James Toney was one of the worst in modern times but there were many others. I dont think even the greatest Toney fan could say James won that one

    The problem was Tiberi never got over it. Do not get me wrong, he had every reason to be upset, but there comes a point when he needed to realize his unhappiness was not going to change anything. He now had the sympathy of many fans; so he needed to carry on with his career; or go thanks, but boxing is not for me anymore; continued bitterness did him few favours.

    Apparently McTigue-Flowers was appalling.

    Patterson got robbed against Jimmy Ellis.

    He also should have gotten the nod in the second Quarry fight.

    I give Patterson the nod in the first Quarry fight but I give Jerry the second fight, so I don't know if this constitutes a robbery. I do however, feel that Floyd got robbed against Ellis.
