    I personally picked Whittaker-Chavez, but Leonard-Hearns II, Hagler-Aunterfermo 1 definitely rank up there & a personal one for me not listed to your question, Dokes-Weaver II.

    :patsch Oops, sorry. I just rechecked your list. You do in fact have Dokes-Weaver 2 on there.

    Of those choices listed, for me it's Lewis-Holyfield 1. I,even on my most generous day , cannot give Evander a share of the spoils.

    Joe Frazier vs Floyd "Jumbo" Cummings. Only Joe's name got him the draw.

    For me, Nelson-Fenech is probably the most inexplicable. Nelson wasn't even throwing punches in a bunch of those rounds.

    None of the above. It was Martinez vs Cintron

    Martinez actually knocked out Cintron and won at least 9 rounds but still got only the draw

    Yes I don't know what Martinez had to do to get a 'win' from judges :-(

    Lewis-Hollyfield came to mind immediately.
    Tho that fight came after boxing had faded from my passion for the sport, I did watch it and couldn't believe the outcome.
