    Leonard, Hagler was too passive for me. I can see it being a draw or a round up for Hagler, and have no argument with that.

    Margarito had probably used loaded wraps before, as evidenced by his in-ability to crack an egg since getting caught.

    Tyson was guilty IMO, but I could be wrong.

    I think Dirrell was okay, shook up but he was getting preassured and saw a way out of the fight with the W in-tact. Also allowed to him to avoid fighting Ward who he wasn't keen to fight in the first place.

    Hopkins was really hurt, chickens wouldn't of signed for the re-match.

    Firmly belive Pryor cheated, 'the one that I mixed' means alot more than water.

    Correct stoppage, Saftey of the fighter always comes first in Boxing, always. Steve Smoger would of stopped that fight too.

    Calzaghe won an ugly fight, literally by a hair.

    1. Hagler
    2. Marg had, had them in previous fights
    3. Guilty
    4. Fake
    5. Not fake, the injury did occur, but good over-acting on Hops part.
    6. Something else. Hell Pryor was busted for Cocaine some time later.
    7. Wrong stoppage - Taylor was robbed out of beautiful performance.
    8. I still say Draw or edge to Hops

    here's my 2 cents worth,
    1.leonard won.
    2.margarito, im gonna say mosley was the first time with those wraps.
    3.tyson, guilty of treating women like ****, but not guilty of ****.
    4.andre dirrell, really hurt.
    5. hopkins, faking, he's just done it too many times before.
    6.pryor, i actually think all is fair here, just water.
    7.chavez-taylor, right stoppage. if a man is finished, it matters not if there's 2 seconds, or 2 minutes left, its fight over.
    8.calzaghe, close but joe deserved the win.
    thankyou to everyone who contributed, i appreciate it.

    1. Leonard.

    2. They've been loaded forever. The effect that his punches had on Cotto the first time make it obvious as does the fact that he would have been more likely to load them for a prime and highly-touted opponent in Cotto than he would have for a Mosley who nearly everyone felt was shot.

    3. Railroad job from a ***** wanting money. It happens all the time.

    4. One of the most blatant and disgusting quitjobs in recent memory.

    5. He was hurt.

    6. It was juiced with something. Panama Lewis is a confirmed cheater and all-around dirty **** and it wasn't a coincidence that after Pryor drank "the one I mixed" he went from appearing done to coming back with a vengeance. Besides, Resto confirmed that one of Lewis' tricks was to put asthma pills in a bottle of water.

    7. Steele pulled off the worst stoppage and biggest robbery ever. That call robbed Taylor of his defining win and boxing immortality and the matter of seconds that Steele had determined could lead to Meldrick being killed were totally inconsequential.

    8. Calzaghe. Hopkins stunk the joint up by fighting like a mini-John Ruiz.

    1. Don't know as haven't watched the fight.
    2. I definately think he used them in previous bouts especially against Cotto.
    3. I think innocent although he was probably a bit too rough for her liking.
    4. Really Ko'd; or at least the punch was hard enough for the fight to be stopped.
    5. Hurt but overplayed by Bhop.
    6. Something dodgy.
    7. Probably right decision but not totally sure.
    8. Calzaghe won by 2 points. Bhop didn't throw enough punches and was outworked.

    1. Leonard
    2. Several others. At the absolute very least, one. I think probably 3 or as many as, honestly 10 or so.
    3. Grey area probably. By definition, probably guilty.
    4. Really DQ'd. I think the punch F'd him up, but I go back and forth on it. He seemed like a drama queen, it was too dramatic to be fake, almost.
    5. Huh... I mean, just like the "grey area," by definition a real injury, but a total pus move especially when Hopkins initiated illegal contact by jumping on Dawson's upper back.
    6. Def something else.
    7. I treat it as a win, lets say. It is what it is. I'd say right stoppage.
    8. Calzaghe

    1. Hagler, but I'm biased. Don't know what he was thinking boxing with way Ray for the first 4 like that though.

    2.No doubt he used em before.

    3. I think what Mike considered normal sex, and what she thought was normal were very different.

    4. Really hurt

    5. Hurt but exaggerating

    6. Something, who knows what

    7. Doesn't matter how much time is left to me, there was still time on the clock and Taylor was unfit to continue

    8. Calzaghe. Hopkins did nothing so many rounds.
