The Five All Time Worst Boxing Decisions

[Tarugo]

I'm surprised that none of you mentioned Leonard-Hearns II. Leonard was repeatedly hurt and outboxed by Hearns and dropped him twice, yet it was declared a draw.

The reason that fight is controversial is because of ten point must. Anyone being fair cannot score the fight any better than 113/112 Tommy; thus a split draw is fair.

It is just Ray sneaked a few of his winning rounds and Tommy dominated his winning rounds. But with the exception of the knock down rounds, he did not do enough to win them any better than 10-9; which is the same as Ray got for winning rounds by landing half dozen more punches......

A lot of the fights being mentioned were close not robberies. However Leonard himself admitted he should not have got the decision. Hearns jab won most of the rounds, Leonard had two big rounds think the last and round 5 but the knockdowns were the definite clinchers. (Another reason to hate you Brit Kid- LOL)

I disagree BK i just watched that again recently and to me SRL only won 2 rounds really clearly, and that was the 5th and the 12th. Where he badly stunned Thomas Hearns.

And the 5th round was a 10-8 round for SRL no question, but the 12th round clearly wasn't. I don't care what the punchstats said Thomas Hearns clearly made it his kind of fight.

He controlled the fight mostly from the outside with his long jab, and SRL was slower than normal and struggled to get on the inside. He took Thomas Hearns a bit lightly cause he see Thomas Hearns get layed out by Iran Barkley.

And he thought sooner or later he would be able to catch up to Thomas Hearns suspect chin, but that wasn't the case he was frustrated mostly all night long and he only won about 4 rounds IMO. And even SRL said himself he lost the fight, so i think that basically ends the debate of anyone who thought it was close enough for SRL to earn a draw.
