    That was simply a close fight that could have gone either way: not controversial.

    Santa Cruz/Casamayor was as bad as it gets.

    Forrest/Quartey was another highway robbery.

    People say Yory Boy got robbed by Duddy, but that one wasn't nearly as bad as Matt Vanda getting a decision against Yory Boy. That one was just awful. Campas will probably get jobbed again when he fights Macklin.

    He was very unlucky not to get the decision against Duddy.

    In fact had it been in Ireland Yori Boy would hace probably got the decision

    Man,Im sitting there remembering the Toney / Tiberi Hold up and recall Tiberi just flat out out hustling him,That simple.So I went back and checked my original scoresheet .This was when I first started scoring bouts and Had yet to realize what a difference even 10-10 rounds could make.

    Today I can not stand even rounds,They really are so non commital and indesicive.Here I actually had FOUR even (10-10) rounds And a final card of 118-113. Have Tiberi losing a point in the 7th,Cannot remember what for,but I still scored the round 9-9 because toney lost the round Imo.If you define a 10-10 as "it could have gone either way? You can make those rounds for Toney and my score comes out 115-113 Tiberi.......not exactley a one sided blow out Maybe an eary revelation of early fan boy bias on my part Lol. But sitting there watching it that afternoon it was ??And still is. Just thinking out loud,Now Im confused and need coffee.

    Maybe true, but I had Duddy winning 115-113. Against Vanda, I had Yory Boy up 116-112. The fight was in Vanda's hometown and it just turned my stomache.

    It's really hard to have a razor thin close fight decision, and not call it controversy. Most of us saw a couple of them just this month (4Qs). And IMO, they were correct.

    sturm-de la hoya was daylight robbery, i had felix by 2-3 rounds like most people did. Scorecards predictably came back all with the 115-113 result, something was definetly up that night!!

    How the hell lewis-holyfield 1 got scored a draw still amazes most. female judge scored round 5 to evander when it was lennoxs best round of the fight!!

    pac-marquez 1 was harsh to say the least, Manny just threw uncontrolably that night, JMM was picking his punches far more effectively and i had him winning by 3 rounds!!
    one dangerous horrible bloke
