    I'm glad someone else agrees with me that Ike Quartey won that fight. Maybe I'm going over the top saying cotto vs clottey was a robbery as such...but absolutely believe the decision was wrong. I deep down I think Miguel cotto thought that at the time. It took them ****ing ages to read out the scorecards that's when you know somethings not right

    yeah in close fights like that you can make a case for either fighter but I think quartey has a better claim of beating Oscar than Pernell Whitaker had in his fight which was close as well.

    Ike fight cut me deep at the time, but over time i've come to accept the decision since Oscar took the championship rds.

    Oscar showed heart but I thought despite winning those rounds and making it close he still lost.
    I might rewatch that fight for fun today, see if it feels different now after a few year.

    I thought Clottey looked better than Cotto but Cotto might have won more rounds.

    Cotto/Clottey was a fight that could've went either way , They gave it to Cotto . But i would had no problem at all if Clottey was awarded the decision . Far from a robbery . Martinez/Cintron Dirrell/Froch Lara/Williams Those were legit robberys .

    Direll vs Froch a robbery???

    Dirrell gave them every excuse possible to take it from him with his cringeworthy stinker of a performance. Nobidy deserves to win a world title fighting like he did
