    Both were declared 'draw's.
    Two of the biggest robberies ever...

    Which one is a bigger robbery.

    I scored both 117-111, I haven't watched either fight in a while but from memory Whitaker-Chavez seemed the more clear win, so I pick that.

    I watched the Chavez-Whitaker fight and was blinded by my being a huge Chavez fan. I did not score it but felt that Pernell was robbed although I was happy with the draw. I think the time is right for me to watch that fight objectively and score it. Out of the two mentioned fights I suspect that the Chavez one was the bigger robbery however I do need to check them both out again.

    Whitaker/Chavez and it's really not close, in that the W, Pernell earned would have enhanced his legacy as being the first to decisively defeat the undefeated Chavez. The draw that Lewis was hosed with, didn't really tarnish anything, as he was given a rematch and was able to set the record straight.

    Well, considering the number of accolades Pea had, it's alright he left one to other not so lucky people, like Randall.
