    boxing fans, which fights have you been to live, convinced it was going (or went) a certain way, then after rewatching it on tv you see it completely differently?

    just as a bit of exposition as to how judges (lets assume non are currupt) can see a fight completely differently.

    the only fights i've been to are the ones that have been at the m.e.n. i.e. khan - mab, haye -ruiz, haye - harrison. and pretty much every fight on the cards ended in knockout.

    so the most I can add to the debate is regarding jamie moore's last ever fight. on the night it looked to me like he was wearing his opponent down, the final round completely shocked me and i initially thought it was an amazing turnaround. however after rewatching it, i realised moore was clearly shot and pretty much got smashed throughout the whole fight.

    for example has anyone been to watch martinez - williams 1 and saw a completely different fight to the one they rewatched at a later date?
