    Ive just rewatched the fight and had it 7-5 to Hardy with a KD to Carnizales so had Hardy winning by a point. I wouldnt call it a robery as some have because it was a really close fight with some rounds that could be scored either way.
    I know Carnizales slacked of in training but thats no excuse and i think Hardy should have been crowned champ that night.

    How did you guys have it?

    115-114 Hardy
    Canizales: 1,4,6,9 ( 10-8 ).
    Hardy: 3,5,7,10,11 and 12.
    Rounds 2 and 8 even.


    Agree that it wasn't a robbery.

    I aint seen the first fight, but the rematch is a dandy and Canizales really pulls it out against the tide.

    Hardy the first time was also about the only ranked opponent Canizales fought during his title reign.

    Who do you guys think would have won a Canizales Jibaro Perez unification bout in the late 80s?.

    From memory I think i had Canizales 1 point up but it was one of them fights where I felt Hardy had won it until I added up my scorecard

    Tough one... i don't really have an inclination one way or the other as to how this would go. Do you have any intimations on it yourself Mante?

    I remember it well I thought Billy had just edged it,but there was no outrage with Canizales getting it,he did score a knockdown and that probably clinched it.
