    By look it up, do you mean read up about it or actually watch it? Because if it's the former, I suggest you watch it and form your own opinion. Whitaker won at least 10 of the 12 rounds. Absolutely ridiculous. Worse than the Chavez robbery.

    Lewis vs Holyfield was hard to take.

    Regardless of what kind of style you prefer, there can be no justification whatsoever for scoring Ramirez a winner. I don't think it was close - I'm more than happy to call this a robbery.

    I know some people disagree, but Forrest/Quartey was one of the worst decisions that I've ever seen.

    I scored Winky-Taylor a draw and Spinks-Taylor was a close fight you can argue for either guy. Regardless of how you score them, they're two close fights and to label them robberies is ridiculous.

    Maybe you just don't know how to score a round.

    Taylor - Wright was a draw and Taylor beat Spinks. Simple as that. :roll:

    Lewis v Holyfield.

    As a kid I saw that live and even as a kid growing up in England I was never a Lewis fan. But I begged my mum to buy this PPV because it had been hyped so much and while it was boring as hell, I was about 12 and still sat the mouth open at the decision.

    Mayweather in the olympics too was horrible also.

    A couple of British fights recently have been shocking too. Small vs Pryce, Fury vs Mcdermott and the Napa fight. Judges just keep getting away with it.
