    Sad to say I witnessed one of the biggest robberies.. I only had Adamek winning 3 rounds and that's being nice.. Steve Cunningham landed to harder and more punches through the whole fight..Adamek used is regular strategy of waiting the last 10 seconds on every round to turn it up.. & Cunningham still got the best of it...Boxing is our lives.. so these judges who never threw a punch in a ring in they life is taking our lives away!! ... Something gotta be done is this corrupt sport!!

    Well...that seems like a very balanced analysis.

    I'm yet to watch the fight to see how much you exagerate.

    Thats a great way of putting it Chambers. I cant imagine what it would feel like to be on the end of a robbery like that. Must burn bad.

    It has been a problem in Boxing for ages, but I think one of the problems is that the fans from the countries in wich the biggest robberies happen (Germany and the US) refuse to acknowledge the problem they're having.

    It's always about pointing fingers to "over there"... While it's everywhere, and in the biggest boxing nations it's even worse.

    I was actually quite curious to hear your take on this EC.

    That was the robbery.

    Had the broad simply given Adamek the close rds at first, instead of going back later and changing 3 of her 10/10s to Adamek, this L wouldnt been near as corrupt.

    But Cunningham should know as a seasoned fighter that fighting for a draw and expecting to win is unfruitful.:-(

    Not much of an exaggeration at all actually. Watch the fight and you'll see.

    Look at the Deb Barnes score... it was changed from 115-115 to 115-112, while it should be 115-113 (the right total of the scores) :!:

    you mean if only the "fans" would acknowledge a problem, then it would disappear?

    blame the fans!

    I recall the fans booing loudly when Paul Williams got his robbery. Same for Tim Bradley.


    For the record, in Germany they cheer their robberies.

    Stop crying, the fight was close. Althought I had Adamek winning 115-114 I regret that it wasnt a draw, cause then the 3rd fight would happen and we wont talk about robberries.

    However I think that Adamek doesnt deserve an immediate eliminator fight with Pulev. Cunningham deserves a rematch and then making an eliminator fight with Pulev would make more sense. But its bussiness and such things wont happen...

    Now is that what happened Chitown? I hadn't heard any sort of explanation. Best case would have been the judge just tallied it up wrong at the end.
