    Have any of you guys seen this? ODH won the first fight via controversial decision and the rematch was an even better fight. I thought Ivan won both fights but it is what it is. Oscar went on to be a star and Ivan went on to be a respected, tough journeyman that was much better than his record.

    One of a series of narrow De La Hoya victories prior to a reversal of such fortunes against Felix Trinidad. I respect Robinson’s effort a lot, he was not intimidated & went all in, twice.

    Robinson was a very underrated fighter in the pros, not surprised he gave De LA Hoya some work in the Amatuers.

    I need to catch up on Ivan Robinson. I was told to also watch his fights with Arturo Gatti.
