    Understood, and the majority think so - but there is a vocal contingent who swear with no less passion that Hagler was robbed. :conf

    Just said the same exact thing really, conversating with SJS. I had those fights 118-110 and 115-113 respectively. Pea won very wide, while Hagler was just edged out. However, if you're not counting Chavez as a win for him and instead the 'Draw' it was determined to be, then obviously that hurts him.

    :good

    Pea won VERY wide. It was funny listening to the crew, Cyz was absolutely unwilling to commit to admitting Pea was the clear winner that night. As a matter of fact, they all were.

    When there is a clear gap in skill on display (like Pea/Chavez) as well as one fighter IYO who won most of the rounds, allowances should be made. This is one of the cases.

    Showtime was DKP's property. :-(

    What's funny is that fight is hardly my favorite; Nelson is. Both McGirt fights were quality too.
