    :?

    I really hate Resto and Panama.

    What's a more disgraceful act in the ring?

    Tiberi Toney robbery :twisted:

    Probably the failure to adminester oxygen to James Murray in his fatal encounter with Dochterty. In my lifetime. More broadly, the way Watson was moved about before they found him a hospital bed leaves me chilled to the bone.

    Most disgraceful robbery ever= Coggi-Gonzalez I

    Never seen the Dochterty-Murray one. Hated that Watson-Eubank rematch. I can't really watch it.

    The NYSAC had a double disgrace that night of Resto-Collins. Not inspecting the gloves at first, and then the ref in Duran-Moore.

    ****ing Resto-Collins. That boy was retired, right? Eye trouble?

    The worst thing about the Watson-Eubank rematch, which I have never rewatched to this day, was the fact that Watson deserved the nod in the first one in my opinion and went to war in the second one because he believed he might be robbed again. He was't a slugger swarmer any more tha you're a Klitschko fan. But he got in there because he thought he needed the stoppage. Remember Watson after? Calling him superhuman, demanding he be tested? Watson may have been on the brink of great things. As it stands he'll always be third.

    There are quite a few robberies that were disgraceful so to list them all would probably cause blood to shoot out your ears. Holyfield-Lewis I to start...

    The most disgraceful thing was probably Ricardo Mayorga saying he'd reunite Cory Spinks with his dead mother...and I'm a big Mayorga fan.

    Tiberi missed too much of his punches. It appeared to me that it was a bad decision until I watched the fight again. Tiberi could not hit a man who was cramped up and limping the last 8-9 rounds of the fight. He just kept missing all of his shots and the crowd cheered the misses. I would not have made Tiberi a world champ unless he landed more sorry. This was not a robbery. I saw the fight live too, and didn't think Tiberi did enough to win. Toney looked so bad after he cramped up and Tiberi could not take advantage of this...
