    David Haye vs Wladimir Klitschko is the pinnacle of this

    i don't care about other fans opinions. A great bout is a great bout and don't get ruined by fans for me... Even bad decision can't ruin a bout for me.. I might hate the decision, but i still love to watch Pac Marquez II, Delahoya Mosley II or Mayweather Castillo I

    Cotto vs Margo (becomes talking about hand wraps)

    Lewis vs Klit

    Every Pac/Marquez fight

    Lewis-Vitali (before the stoppage)
    Pacman-Marquez 1 and 2
    ODLH-Quartey
    Bowe-Golota (before Golota's spaz attacks)

    And most recently Peterson-Khan.

    You should have added: "or ruined by corrupt paid-off judges and/or referee.":D

    Then we would have fights like:
    Pac - Marquez
    Ottke - Reid
    Bute - Andrade

    :lol: It was mainly directed at the fans who fail to remember the good/great bouts, and focus on the negatives. But yeah, **** the corruption in boxing aswell. :deal

    Disagree. I don't think the results affect these bouts as much as those that have been listed. I haven't really seen fans go back and forth like the bouts that have been mentioned, complaining about the decisions. I think the consensus is that these bouts are ****ing awesome, despite who you think won.

    I thought the Chisora vs Helenius fight was a very good heavyweight bout with excitement and a great display of skill by Chisora but all we talk about is the decision

    I think another one i will take **** for is Floyd vs Ortiz

    Ortiz goes dirty then breaks a cardinal rule in boxing and gets KO'd and all these people blame Floyd for doing his job as a boxer and taking an opening that was given

    Tarver vs Jones was a great fight but its used as a signal of Jones being done but no credit to Tarver who fought a great fight

    Taylor-Chavez: all that gets mentioned is the stoppage

    Vitali-Lewis

    Pacquiao-Marquez

    Cotto-Mosley: good back and forth fight. Everyone crying robbery for a few weeks after

    Marquez-Barrera: excellent fight, not discussed very often. Whining after decision.

    Peterson-Khan: good scrap, more threads on hatman than actual fight

    too many to mention, but recently Khan vs Peterson - few mention it was a great fight, they rather criticise a fighter or scores.

    benn vs GMan was great fight but the tragic end means it's not talked about
