Robin Reid vs Joe Calzaghe Who Won Come And Vote.

[sonny78]

People keep starting threads about Joe Calzaghe vs Bernard Hopkins, but i thought Robin Reid vs Joe Calzaghe was even more controversial. I believe they were dead even according to the punchstats which means, nothing in alot of cases.

But i think Joe Calzaghe had the better of it early on, then Robin Reid took over by coming forward. And landing solid right hands that were rocking Joe Calzaghe's head back, and landing solid body shots.

Once Robin Reid found his range with that right hand it was all Robin Reid, and i thought he won by a few points. I haven't got an exact scorecard i may do one later, but does anyone else agree ?

JOE CALZAGHE HAS NEVER BEEN BEATEN

I know this is hard for a lot of people to to get but this is FACT!! you can go through almost every boxer in history and find a controversial result or a number of them somewhere along the line, in fact I bet you could do that with almost every sport

Its a waste of time this thread is called "Re: Robin Reid vs Joe Calzaghe Who Won Come And Vote."

Joe Won Fact!

So i guess Evander Holyfield deserved a draw against Lennox Lewis in there 1st fight, or Pernell Whitaker derserved to lose to Jose Luis Ramirez ? Please stop using the record books argument its a weak arguement, and it doesn't sound like you have any real argument. That can convince me Joe Calzaghe deserved the nod against Robin Reid.

Im not saying this fight is in the same league as those fights above regarding controversy.

But people still are allowed to debate who they thought. Should of won this is a boxing forum after all and controversial decisions are part and parcel of discussions here, it sounds like your Joe Calzaghe fan boy. That can't handle people discussing one of Joe Calzaghe's controversial fights.

If you don't want to debate on the fight or you have that logic, don't bother replying its as simple as that really.

Ok first off I am not some Joe Calzaghe Fan Boy

At the time of this fight I lived in Newcastle but was from Manchester I had met Robin Reid a few times an had followed him from the Olympics I wanted Robin to smash the shit out of the Welsh F***er

But he didn't

It was a close fight and while some people I was with thought Robin had it I saw Joe edge it I cant remember exact details of the fight but I remember

it could have gone either way but was not upset by the result

This was far from a robbery Robin was robbed against Sven Ottke but he lost to Joe

Sometimes we dont like the result but unless we want professional boxing scored the same way it is in the amateurs then there is always going to be some controversy unless it is as blatant as the Robin / Sven fight then I am happy to accept the judges ruling
