    Fights that you scored as draws. Mine are:
    Calzaghe-Reid
    JCC-LaPorte
    Rosario-Howard Davis
    Casamayor-Campbell

    Others where I thought draws would have been fair:
    Mayweather-Castillo I
    DLH-Quartey
    Eubank-Watson
    Rosario-Ramirez
    And maybe Vargas-Wright and Groves-DeGale

    Barkley- Duran
    Holmes-Mercer

    These would have been fair.

    Good call. I meant to include Barkley-Duran in my second list.

    Bones Adams v Paulie Ayala 1 was so very close.
    Paulie Ayala v Tapia 1 - the most even fight I have seen.

    This fight featured the worst scorecard I've ever seen in a boxing match at 119-110. I gave it Sergio by one point but I'd argue neither fighter deserved to loose that fight.

    Not so sure about that one either. Mercer had a good case for a draw against Lewis, really competitive fight that one!
