    The Robin Reid fight was an embarassment to boxing, I feel so sorry for the guy.

    I dont think that the Markussen fight belong on the list, but clearly Larsen won, all media and experts had him winning.

    I think that the German boxingfans have become less green, and wont be that easy to please again, like they where with the ohh so borring Ottke...

    Did any German media ever focus on this?

    Well a lot of the British fanbase would disagree with you there, many at boxrec had Reid the winner. If I recall the fight was actually an SD win, one of the official judges had Reid winning by 5 points.

    Have you seen the fight? The judge who had Reid winning was a local from Reid's area, this was a typical "english vs. welsh" type event. Boxrec guys don't like Calzaghe, in which if you despise someone, you can see things that aren't there for your purposes.

    He was a ****ing nightmare to watch,he would run and hold the whole round,then suddenly run in and slap his man,and get the rounds.
    The ref and crowd were all on his side,fair enough the crowd,but the ref was if you see the fights kind of standing looking at the other guy all night,barley looked at ottke,waiting to jump in and pull the other fighter,for daring to punch back,guess thats not allowed in germany.
    Fair play to the crowd somtimes though,i heard a fair level of booing a few times,when he won,must have been a few fair minded germans in there.
    The reid fight put me off boxing for a while though,i honestly expected robin to rip his head off,and shut up the crowd for good.But he was stopped from even raising his fists,in the most shameful night of europeon boxing ive ever seen,some of the crowd though when they showed close ups,looked ****ing shamed big time,they all knew what was going on,reid should have just walked out **** the lot of them,make them look like the scum they were that night,screw the money.
    That damn german promoter though,they always showed needed a good slap to,he would freak out if ottke got hit fairly,shout to the ref,and at the end he got in the ring with a huge grin on his smarmy looking face and talk to the ref and others,like he knew danm well they had it in the bag about 10 or 12 rounds back,****ing glad ottke retired,wish the promoter would to.

    I havent scored his fights they were boring but I remember I definitly had Brewer winning the first one by a comfortable margin, however I remember that Ottke clearly beat him in the rematch. The Reid fight was a robbery but the other ones I had Ottke winning in close fights.

    Ottke was a very good fighter but if you monitor his career you'll realse he got old and looked old.

    I've only ever looked to score the Reid fight and I think Reid definitely won that. If I remember right he lost a bogus point and wasn't given a kd. One thing I know for sure is that ref should be thrown out of boxing.
