    What a comedy show. If there was ever a fight that could turn somebody off boxing this would be it.

    Clear win for Reid who scored a knockdown and instead of scoring points was actually deducted a point. The best Ottke could do was hug and skip laps around the ring backwards. He refused to put any heart or effort in the fight and sobbed to the ref everytime he took shots to the body. Reid landed clean timed hooks all night on Ottke that shook him everytime they landed. Got out worked and out boxed.

    Ottke went home the victor. Crazy decision.

    The fight solely responsible for the RRR (Robin Reid Rule) which stipulates that no German fighter can win an event. A truly historic day in the history of the Main Event Mafia's heritage and tapestry

    The most blatant display of corruption I have ever witnessed is a boxing ring. Never seen a fighter warned every time for legally hitting an opponent to the body. The point deduction was beyond belief. Still makes me angry thinking about this fight.

    What?

    I distinctly remember Reid blatantly punching poor Sven in the face in that bout! He was lucky to get away with only a stern warning from the referee (Roger Tilleman)... he should have been disqualified right there on the spot! :bart

    Can you imagine young boxers see that and start punching eachother in the face too during matches... total anarchy I tell ya! TOTAL ANARCHY! :twisted:

    That and Agbeko/Mares were the angriest I've ever been watching a fight.

    The cause of the point deduction you stipulate is a myth.

    The fight should really be known for the most biased commentary ever displayed by a British commentator.

    In all fairness to Ottke and his ref, no one likes being hit in the face.
