    In some bizarre way the story got twisted around to Ali being the sacrificial lamb. It was rather odd.

    Hooker v Perez......


    Sadly Perez was robbed on the scorecards.

    Even more impressive was that Adelaide Byrd actually produced the only accurate card of the three - the first, and only time, in her career.

    Some from the UK in recent memory, not all are cherry picks some are step up fights gone wrong:

    Briedis Prescott v Amir Khan

    Carson Jones vs Brian Rose/Brook

    Khamitski v Buglioni/Moore

    Thompson v Haye

    Ortiz v Scott (fight was meant to build Ortiz profile)

    Clark v Barret

    Mimoune v Eggington

    Yep, Benn wasn't as chinny as made out, wreckless yes, he was wild and could be tagged, thing is, he was even more dangerous then.

    Big upset but I think Honeyghan was mandatory rather than a cherry pick.
