    Taylor v Chavez? Doesn't get more controversial than that!

    But how? I've seen this fight twice (once live, once youtube) and I find it hard to score anything for Valuev let alone have him winning by a landslide. Haye does very little but he connects quite well whereas Valuev is perhaps a little more active but he doesn't hit ****!? Haye went virtually untagged through that fight the only punishment having received being a broken hand while trying to crack Valuev's chin.

    Haye does little, Valuev does absolutely nothing. I don't remember one clean shot Valuev landed.

    **** fight on top of that.

    Yep, I know, seen it more than any other fight.
    I never gave Barrera a 10-8 rd in rd 12 tho because it wasnt a knockdown but I did give him that rd 10-9, he did more IMO.
    Check out fights 2 & 3, not as great but well worth watching.

    Ps. I gave Morales 8 rds in the 2nd fight & 6 rds in the 3rd fight.

    :good

    The only clear win for either man was fight 2 which Morales won clear.... but to each their own judgement I suppose.

    Wasnt a decision tho.... Chavez broke him down, knocked him out & ruined him for life.

    This one doesnt qualify here.

    Mmmm... interesting, seems Leonard has an edge on the votes just as he did that very night.
    I scored 7-5 Leonard, great & underrated fight IMO.

    I completely agree :good

    Valuev didnt do ****. Haye won fair and square, even though it isnt a fight I would want to watch again. Just like you I watched it live and on youtube, and both time I had Haye winning clearly.

    Ben-Rabah and Urango.

    Ben-Rabah clearly won that fight by a couple of rounds to only get robbed blindly.:-(

    Let's not forget that race plays a huge factor in calling a fight controversial.
