    Good call. Actually, a lot of Eubank fights could qualify. Half the round he stood there posing, letting guys outwork him for a bit, and then he'd unleash heavy shots, evening it out in a maddening way.

    As mentioned the Zarate Pintor fight. I watched it yesterday after all these years and what a great fight. I think there were a lot of rounds in that fight that could go either way. Watching it I thought Pintor nicked it. Funny though at the end Zarate looked as surprised that he lost as Pintor did that he won.

    I felt the same, Clottey landed a lot of uppercuts throughout, that flash knockdown from a jab in round one was crucial.

    James Toney - Montell Griffin
    Sergio Martinez - Paul Williams I
    Daniel Williams - John McDermott
    Bernard Hopkins - Joe Calzaghe
    Jimmy Young - Muhammad Ali

    Byrd vs Golota I couldn't score for a winner. I was glad that the fight was a draw, too close for me to call.

    I don't find fights difficult to score because the rounds I'm unsure about should be 10-10.

    I don't understand the irrational fear of scoring rounds even.

    If there's serious doubt or a lot of room for interpretation that means you should score it even and move on. The onus is on the fighters to win a round clearly, that's how they can get ahead on the score cards. The onus shouldn't be on the judge to decipher something difficult. Its a boxing match, not code breaking.

    Only for Eubank ass kissers like yourself, most other people could clearly see Benn won.
