Hopkins-Taylor 1.. I dont even like Hopkins but I thought he was done wrong. Hops was the defending undisputed champ and no way Taylor did enough to take that away from him. Fuckin bullshit.
I agree with you that B Hop won the fight but it was close however did the judges score it widely wrong.
Sometimes that camp Aussie guy Craig is just plain mean on strictly.
Miguel Donate had Asumah Nelson winning 8 rounds to 4 against Jeff Fenech, that was absurd.
Yeah, Jermaine Taylor with one of the lamest Title-challenge efforts ever, and the boxing establishment wanted to get rid of Hopkins as he was seen as a trouble-maker, so they prematurely ended his record-setting run. Hopkins set a record for longest reigning Middleweight Champ and also for Title defenses, but if he hadn't been robbed, I wonder how much longer Hopkins would've reigned, and how many more Title-defenses he'd have made?
Of course 23 year old Mike Tyson was in his prime when Buster knocked the $#! out of him.Quote:

I've never seen people make excuses for a fighter losing like the way lame-ohs constantly make excuses for Mike Tyson...
Roy Jones Jr. vs. Park Si-Hun in the 88 Olympics. Those judges should all commit suicide.
The second poorest scoring fight I saw was against Manny Pacquiao vs. Tim Bradley. Those judges should ALL commit suicide. 115-113 from Ross and Ford for Bradley was just sickening. They should be banned from boxing. In fact, 115-113 from Roth was almost as bad because the fight wasn't even that close. Bradley won, at least, 2 rounds... and they were close rounds you could have scored any way.
These were the two most egregious cases of judging fraud I have EVER seen.
The Roy Jons Jr. robbery would go down in history as the WORSE robbery EVER in the sport of boxing. the Olympic committee should give RJJ his damn medal. For real!
Another one, but it wasn't that bad but I would mention it any way, was DLH vs. Trinidad. But I can appreciate why DLH lost- he simply stopped fighting after the 10th round. You can't beat a champion like that- even though he won every other round, and he should have gotten the decision on merit, by at least a 116-112 score, he simply didn't need to run away for the entire fight.
Honourable mention: Hopkins vs. Calzaghe. The fight was 114-113 Hopkins, and a draw at least. But then again, it was a who-cares fight.
