[ICB]

Pernell Whitaker vs Ramirez 1

Larry Holmes vs Michael Spinks 2
Anthony Bosante vs Jesse Brinkley

Fenech v Nelson 1...
Altho Nelson destroyed jeff in the second fight. No way the first was a draw fenech should have won by atleast 4 rounds.

Totally agree it wasn't even close.

I've always felt that Whitaker-Chavez and Lewis-Holyfield I were the two that really stand out from the last few decades.

Both were horrible decisions, and more importantly, both occurred in huge megafights that were really important to the sport. Lewis-Holyfield was for the undisputed heavyweight title, and Whitaker-Chavez was supposed to determine the undisputed #1 PFP fighter in the world.

I would say that Whitaker-Chavez should go down as being the worst of the two, because at least Lewis got the chance to fight a rematch and get his victory. Chavez wanted no part of a rematch.

Dont know but I bet he never left the USA after that did Whitaker and wouldnt blame him.

What would be the worst call in history?

I tend to disagree with this statement (I know I'm in the minority) because it is a decision that could have saved a life. Most agree that Taylor was not the same after that beating, what would've happend if he had taken one more pounch is anybodies guess.

I think the ref who didn't stop the Paret - Griffith fight made a much wurst call. That one did cause a life.

Or Mancini/Kim,of course that ref ended up committing suicide

[Phil]

what about that ref who warned Robin Reid 4 punching Sven Ottke
he also didn't call a knockdown when Reid dropped him, not sure about worst call in history of boxing
but he was definitly the worst ref in the history of boxing

Taylor/Chavez was not a bad call, doesn't matter how much time is left the refs job is to protect the fighters and that's exactly what he did, it only takes one punch to finish a fighter completely and well, as a fighter i thought Taylor was done after that fight, imagine what one more well placed punch would have done

Yes it was a bad call, because Meldrick Taylor deserved the oppertunity to show that he was alright. Richard Steele should have asked him to come forward. It was a terrible call because Meldrick was given no chance to prove that he was alright.

I would have to say the bitting of Evanders ear by Tyson. That was a huge black mark for the sport.
