    Morales-Barrera I was anyone`s fight, behave yourself & try WATCHING rather than LISTENING to biased Barrera commentators.... Morales-Barrera II was the only real robbery of the trilogy.... the other fights were razor close.

    If you get up at the count of 8 you have not been knocked out. The people that are complaining are essentially saying the referee should not have let Bute continue. But that's an absurd complaint.

    Bute made it all moot by annihilating Andrade in the rematch anyway.

    Pernell beat Chavez (Sr.) and should not have received only a draw. That's the one on the list I would pick.

    You're right about the count.

    But Chavez v. Taylor was not one of the choices.

    You can't say the other fighter was robbed because the referee should have stopped the fight. I hope, to be consistent, you did not complain when the ref. stopped the Chavez-Taylor fight after Taylor was badly hurt and would have been seriously injured (even more than he already was) from another second or two of punches.

    He most definitely did not run the whole fight. He clearly outfought Tito for the first half of the fight. It looked bad at the end but Oscar had at least 8 rounds in the bank before not closing the show.
