    No. The first part of the statement is true. No issue with Mayweather beating Castillo the first time around, though I scored it a draw initially. The scores may have been too wide, but the result isn't actually terribly problematic for those no inclined to immerse themselves too deeply in a sea of hyperbole.

    Hatton-Collazo was debatable, but not outright robbery, because a number of rounds were close and because Collazo didn't really assume control until the final stages. That meant that a Hatton card wasn't out of the question, especially taking into account the flash kd that he scored in the first round.

    :patsch
    Horrible list. Several fights on your list weren't robberies but rather close fights that could have gone either way. Your problem is you don't know the difference between a close fight and a robbery.:deal

    Read the OP, lad.

    I didn't say they were all robberies.

    To be specific, I said :

    Your problem is you can't (or didn't ) read.


    Go back and re-read the OP.

    I didn't say they were all robberies.

    1 Abril/ Rios- worst robbery ever

    2 Lewis/Holyfield (1)- clearly a Lewis win- 9rds to 3

    3 Oscar / Felix S.- clearly sturm win but I gave Oscar 4 rounds

    4 Hearns/Leonard (2)- clear Hearns win but no landslide

    5 Briggs/Foreman- close fight that Foreman deserved

    6 Duran/Comacho- not much of a robbery imo

    7 Oscar/Felix T- no robbery

    8 Hatton/Callazo- no robbery but can see how some could give collazo 7rds

    9 Martinez/Williams- no robbery- I had it by 2 rounds for Martinez 7-5

    10 Castillo/Mayweather 1- Mayweather won a close fight and deserved the W

    Well thanks for that.

    That was the sort of thing I was looking for.

    Unique fight in all of boxing history.

    Sergio beat Kermit at least twice in that fight (once by clear KO and once by clear points) and still only came away with a draw.

    a robbery is a bad decision

    a bad decision isnt a close fight that could go either way, it is where the fighter who should have lost got gifted the win

    A close fight which could be scored either way is where it is a toss up over who won (ie debatable)


    a robbery is a gift which is a bad decision :good
