    It was a fair decision Seamus and you know it ;) Makes the Whitaker vs. JCV look like the best decision ever eh?

    Yeah, I don't think I can rightfully use the word robbery again unless there is a gun involved.

    The shitty thing is this (and this just being a culmination of fights and maneuvers) has soured even my love the history of the sport. The proverbial straw on that back of the camel.

    The bump was inspired by the most significant and egregious robbery since Lewis-Holyfield 1.

    Well, the result for me isn't binary. I just try to gauge the worth of the individual performances.

    My opinion hasn't changed.

    I rank fighter's based on my perception of their career based on my perception of their fights.
