What specific fights have you seen of Ottke's that were clear robberies, Skel? I don't think the Reid decision was a horrible robbery, it was a horrible ref.

You know what bit unfair that and a bit tongue in cheek, I think the majority of Ottkes fights were close but I have to agree wiht the Reid fight, that has to be the most over rated robbery ever, like you say shocking reffering but a robbery nowhere near the worst.

Attempted robbery - That Danny Williams fight where the round stopped a minute early when he almost had the guy knocked out. Then had points taken off him for the crime of wobbling the guy with big rights.
Can't remember the opponent or the country - germany springs to mind but i've got a funny feeling it was in Spain. I think in Spain against a German...but could be the other way round. :p

Yeah that was in Spain, it was the promoter ringing the bell early and stuff.
I'm sure they were trying to rob Danny but considering they got KO'd it don't really count.
