I could guess the loses you are refering to but all fighters have close fights that end controversy.
I cant think of any top fighter that has not had what is known as a home town/house fighter/popular champ decision.
Just a point I want to make if SSR was so great why did he he duck Charles Buerly?
No argument on any Decision Jones won. Considering everyone else SSR fought and the number of rematches and people he fought in general - I think he can get a pass for ducking.
