    Actually the last two polls had Whitaker winning comfortably.

    Very true, that he was "handed so many fights" is a joke that has been blown way out of proportion.

    A more important question would be what would Hoya's legacy be had he gotten the victories over Trinidad and Mosley 2?

    How about Paulie Ayala? Tapia I and II, Johnny Bredahl, Hugo Dianzo and Bones Adams were all thought to be controversial in some way, shape or form.

    Then again there's Willie Jorrin. He got an absolute howler over Michael Brodie after being outclassed all night, another over Oscar Larios and a dodgy draw with a Japanese chap whose name I can't remember before Larios ironed him out in one in the rematch.

    To me, PBF over JLC (their first fight). Shame on all the judges. Everyone who sees that fight, who doesn't really care about each fighter and watches for the sake of boxing, unbiasly knows that JLC won.

    What makes it to me the biggest controversial victory is that it helped create the grandeur of PBF that we all know today. You know, there is no shame in ever losing. But, there is shame in winning something when it really belongs to someone else. The boxing world needed the grandeur to keep going in what I know they believed was for the sake of boxing.

    ODH

    Ottke has only ONE real gift decision, some others were close and could have gone either way.

    Let's be fair to DLH here he's also had a couple of very debatable ones go against him (Trinidad and Mosley II spring to mind!)
