    Szpilka's return to CW against a Ukrainan journeyman who was 7-5-0 at that time. It was a scandal!

    Robin Reid v Sven Ottke. Many years later I'm still angry about it.

    I remember that actually. If memory serves it was an enjoyable fight, result aside.

    Oh, I agree. Reid was blatantly punching Ottke in the face. Repeatedly! The ref warned Reid several times, even deducted a point, but never DQ'd him. Worst ref ever ... :ohno

    Kerry Hope vs the Thai with a complicated name

    So bad the WBC (I believe) recored it and OVER TURNED the original decision

    As for referee Coggi vs Gonzalez I
