    However if Froch was the black American guy and Dirrell the British guy you would've said Froch won easy.

    :nod

    You know like when Brook actually schooled Porter you claimed that was an utter robbery

    :patsch

    De la Hoya - Trinidad

    But Lewis - Holyfield one was a terrible decision that still really bothers me.

    Foster did both ff them a huge favour by earning them colossal paydays, and giving Carl his signature catchphrase

    Agree that GG could well have been ruined. Froch would have stopped Kovalev such was the the Beast Mode he'd worked himself into by that point

    Not the biggest robbery by any means, but I Watched Hagler v Leonard again in the week. No complaints about the result. Thought it could have gone either way so no complaints there.

    What I couldn't believe was how Leonard didn't get points deducted. Was warned for holding countless times during the match. Still can't believe Hagler accepted 12 rounds and a bigger ring.

    Then had to fight the ref too.

    Good call. This is the one that bothers me the most as well, and I am not even an Oscar fan.

    Oscar deserves tremendous amount of respect. He was a throwback fighter. He fought the best of the best at all times.

    Hagler screwed himself in that fight. He should've easily cruised to a UD, but he literally gave away the first 4 rounds of the fight to SRL which was so perplexing to see. By the 5th round, Hagler started bringing the pressure and I thought won the next 4 rounds clearly. The last 4 rounds of that fight were rather close but I gave the edge to Leonard.

    Hagler could've easily won that fight had he pressed on the gas from the very beginning. But I did notice by than (I believe it was 1987,) that Hagler had slowed down a good bit. He was in a war in his previous fight with Mugabi in 1986, and SRL like the opportunist he was knew that Hagler was ripe for the picking at that juncture in his career.

    1979-1983 Hagler would've probably decimated Ray Leonard.

    Go and check back through that posters history of any close fight between a black american and somebody else.

    The AA wins- clear schooling
    The other guy wins- clear robbery.

    And we know you hate Froch so you're opinion is null and void as you are biased. Jones takes PED to beat someone it's fine and dandy, someone takes PEDs to beat Pacquiao then it's a disgrace.

    Balance Gimperial. Get some.
