    In an even further show of how **** Sven Ottke was as a professional, a 10-0 Mundine with no amatuer experience was ahead on points before the KO.

    Actually ahead on points in Germany against Ottke! Damn, Mundine must have won every round prior....

    I am biased against the "running style". I can respect the boxer style though. . .like Shane, James Toney, Winky etc

    Winky is not a boxer, he's a technical pressure fighter with an extensive degree of defence. Shane is also not a boxer per say, more of a reflexive boxer-puncher.

    Do you know why a fight between Joe C and Sven was never made? I would have loved to seen Sven getting koed.

    Back then, before the hand issue's, JC would have sparked the little running **** without a doubt.

    It never happened because Ottke and his promotional outfit ducked Calzaghe. Warren made an offer for a 30/70 cut and for the fight to be in Germany for Ottke to unify with Calzaghe, but it was avoided by Ottke and camp.

    Too bad.

    I also believe the draw was appropiate, Whitaker just didn't do enough to take the win and Chavez, even though he couldn't push Whitaker around and handle him like he usually did on other opponents did just enough to close the points gap.

    Correctly called by the two professional boxing judges, 114-114 all the way.

    James Toney/Dave Tiberi was one of the worst I saw, Golota Ruiz/Byrd were bad decisions but closer, Sweat pea's fights were hard to judge because he was mostly defensive but the fight vs Delahoya was close

    James Toney/Dave Tiberi forgot that one. Didnt Dave retire after this fight because of the decision?

    The ref missed a knochdown in the whitaker dela hoya fight which would have made it more decisive.

    some on this forum likes to believe pernell liked to run, other greats had the same style, whitaker made fighting going backwards look so easy. Did you see how everyone was in awe of larios, his style was going back while still dominating the fight. Camacho had the same style as well, no doubt about it pernell clearly won against chavez.

    I haven't seen that fight but I hear Toney was out of shape before the fight.
