There is no way I'm letting that biggity comission get my IP address. You can e-mail them all you want. Who knows what kind of foul play they are capable of unleashing!
Besides, I believe that Evander knew what the deal was before he took the fight. Get paid and look like some kind of martyr when you don't get the title. Afterwards say whatever makes you feel good and look for another paycheck.

This is close to the point Ive been trying to drive home,Holyfield didnt do enough to win and Valuev didnt screw up enough to lose.
If I was a major promoter(not a mid realmer like what I am) I wouldnt book either of them at gunpoint.
As a midrealmer,your damned right,Id book a re-match if it was cheap. I wouldnt actually watch my own fight,but Id book it.;D
Id probably just send a surrogate and have them call me to tell me what happened.
Re: Screw Boxing and I mean that from my heart - Holyfield was ROBBED!
i put £150 british pound notes on Holyfield, absolutely disgusted. I never saw the fight but it sounds like the real deal fucked him up and never lost a round. on every report ive seen its apparent that Holy won.Corals im coming for you!!!!
Re: Screw Boxing and I mean that from my heart - Holyfield was ROBBED!
watching this fight really pissed me off. holyfield won it. valuev did nothing. Fixed, felt sorry for holyfield he should have won.
Re: Screw Boxing and I mean that from my heart - Holyfield was ROBBED!
Ok I've just watched this fight to see what all the fuss is about & as usual Germany is again the venue for a dodgy decision. I've also scored it twice. When scoring it neutrally and fairly I had 118-110 in favour of Holyfield, and I can even see how some of you guys are scoring it as a complete shutout. I then re-scored it by heavily favouring Valuev, and giving him rounds based on ANY positive action from him in a round, or basically anything that I believe a judge could argue was worth scoring the round in his favour, and I had it 114-114 on this occasion.
As far as I'm concerned this is a disgusting robbery, and I can see one possible reason for this being Holyfield's safety, and the WBA attempting to make sure that he did not fight again.
Also as a side-note, the few newspaper reports I've read seem to agree with the judges that Valuev won :confused: has anyone else noticed this??
Still it hasn't pissed me off anywhere near as much as Bute-Andrade :mad:
Re: Screw Boxing and I mean that from my heart - Holyfield was ROBBED!
I bet we're going to see a rematch. Not that I want to. Maybe in the U.S.A.

Re: Screw Boxing and I mean that from my heart - Holyfield was ROBBED!
I think its simple. The WBA was never going to let Evander win, because if he did, he would want to unify with the Klitchcos and the WBA doesnt want any liability for that fight cause they never want to be held accountable for anything. Yet they sanctioned Holyfield-Valuev cause they expected an easy win for Valuev to set up a Valuev-Klitchko fight that would not get criticism from the public. Its all BS politics. Evander was never walking away with the title. The WBA is crooked and only interested in protecting their own asses.
Re: Screw Boxing and I mean that from my heart - Holyfield was ROBBED!
This fight was sooo boring, neither guy deserved the win.
