    Hearns/LeonardII; Hagler/Leonard; DLH/Strum, DLH/MosleyII, Hatton/Calloza are disputed decisions.

    Ramirez/WhitakerI; Lewis/HolyfieldI are robberies...

    IMO
    I didnt think that Hatton/Calloza was disputed as it was just to close. You could make a case for either fighter for the win.

    So some people dispute the decision, because they believe Collazo edged it?

    You changed your mind about Lewis-Holyfield 1?

    My second pick would have to be Hagler-Leonard , Hagler won that fight hands down....Itr really disappointed me as a young boxer and a fan to hear him quit in the post fight interview....That was a great fighter that did not let the corruption get to where it was going to corrupt him....

    Last but not least, I think Hearns-Leonard II(The last fight between them)....Hearns knocks down leonard 4 or 5 times in the fight and the fight still ends up a draw.....Making Leonard the luckiest man in boxing history....I really hated him after that fight...

    I will give you a cool click for ODH vs Sturm. Sturm won that fight in solid fashion. Hagler and Leonard only fought once not twice but you have it as a second fight. And Hearns knocked Leonard down twice in the second meeting, Hearns should have won but they were out of their primes by then and fighting only on legacy

    Thnx Brandon for noticing that, I actually had it written wrong the first time and had hears where hagler's name is and forgot to remove the (II) afterwards....

    I thought Tommy knocked Leonard down 4 times withing like 3-5 rounds that fight....It has been a long time since that fight though and I am only going off of what I can remember...

    Thnx for the props also...

    Whitaker is on the wrong end of a few decisions.

    Ramirez, Chavez, De La Hoya...he won all of those imo. Of course, I am a bit biased as he is my favorite fighter of all time.

    Sweet Pea is one of my fav's also . I honestly can't remember the rounds of those fights except for PW -vs. Chavez , I was at ringside , It was a complete travesty in boxing. Whitaker kicked his country ass from pillar to post ! Peat was a complete boxer, he would circle his opponent and get angles like a mofo !

    You just trying to start some shit with that comment, arent you??

    I laughed at how bad Jeff got his tail beat....

    Before the fight ever happened, Jeff was beat on paper...PERIOD!!

    When Jeff stepped into the auditorium that night, he was beat by the crowd in that hostile environment....

    Then the 12 rounds of total ass whoopin he recieved was enough to cap it off...

    Here is my thought on that fight...

    When you are a fighter that is 25-0 going up against a guy that has a 41-0 record, take a closer look at that record and ask yourself if you are really ready to step into the ring with that....

    Jeff needed like 10 more fights before he got in there with a madman like Calzaghe...

    Good Luck,

    Coach

    Here's a hometown decision most don't remember:
    Francisco Lorenzo vs Juan Diaz. He should have been the first man to beat Diaz, but the judges robbed him. Lorenzo was also robbed against Courtney Burton, fortuneatly last time out judges did the right thing and gave him the win against Nate Campell though. I hope Lorenzo gets a title shot or big fight someday, sucker can throw 100 punches a round every round.
