    I figured they would just wait for the contraversy to die off and do nothing. Is anyone really surprised by this? It was the cause of the moment, but the moment has passed.

    My 1st post on this forum was in regards to this fight because I was amazed at how everyone thought Holyfield walked it. I had a discussion about how I thought it was a real close one but I had Valuev winning by 1pt. On a second watch I had Holyfield winning by 1pt. And randomly a couple of days ago I finally saw it on a nice big tele on Eurosport with British commentary and so had a clear picture finally and I had Valuev winning by 1pt again.

    One of the reasons I rewatched was to hear the commentators views (the 2 Eurosport commentators always score along every round) and they shared my view one having Valuev by 1pt and the other a draw.

    Yeah, I was watching this fight too. 4 times. I just couldn't help myself. Then, I stuck splinters up my fingernails and plucked my leg hairs one at a time. It was such a fun evening.

    Honestly, I haven't seen the fight. But, imho, if a fighter cannot take the title away from the champ convincingly, he does not deserve it. I.E. Don't expect to edge a decision in someone else's home turf.

    I had Holyfield winning it by a couple.But frankly this shady shite happens over seas pretty often as well as stateside.......and if it was not Holyfield,with past and stature,as well as being aired on a huge network......there would be no investigation and just an after thought.Valuev is a carnie act and I think he was a bit caught up in the moment.Holyfield should retire with pride,Finally!!

    You must be one of the biggest Valuev/Holyfield fan; I made big efforts to stay focus till the end.
