Looking back at old controversial fights (Season 2) DLH-Trinidad

[Puya]

This fight is probably the biggest misconception in boxing history. ESPN did a poll " The biggest robbery in boxing history" and this fight was the number 1 pick which was astonishing.

Alot of people only watch highlights of this fight, or go by someone else's opinion thats the impression i have always got anyway. You want to talk about robberies how about these.

Whitaker vs Ramirez 1
Whitaker vs Chavez
Lewis vs Holyfield 1
Fenech vs Nelson 1
Sturm vs Oscar
Hearns vs Leonard 2
Ottke vs Reid

These fights i consider 100 percent robberies.

WOW great List CC in 24

Do you guys not see what are landed punches and what aren't?

Did you watch the fight and score it.

If you're insinuating that someone is seeing the fight the wrong way, then post a RBR scorecard to prove your point.

An unfair decision, (but not the worst robbery Iv ever seen.)

I had it a draw first time I saw it and for DLH the second time and then a draw again.

It is a hard fight to score. The first time I saw it I was not scoring it of course, just watching the fight with my brothers, I felt that Tito came up short and did too little too late. I was very supprise they geve it to him, especially with all the talk at the time that DLH could not lose a decision in Vagas.

But every time I score it I see a real close fight draw or one point eather way. The first two rounds were real close, so was the ninth. There were also some rounds were I felt Tito was winning by being the agressor and landing the harder shots then boom, DLH would land a nice combination which made the other 2 and a half minutes of the round seem insignificant. One of those rounds(think it was the 5th) was the one where DLH landed that huge three punch combe right on Tito's face. DLH did not do anything else in that round but that combo was so huge it made it really hard not to give him the round.

I do have to say that this was one of the most biased comentating I have seen in a long time.

Well I find it easy enough to forgive judges sometimes. De la Hoya was so popular in the states that they wouldn't want to be seen to be biased and Trinidad's support made it sound as if every punch was potentially lethal!

They're human too.

Here is my scorecard, pretty much the same as last time I say it.

1. Even
2. Tito
3. DLH
4. Tito
5. DLH
6. DLH
7. DLH
8. DLH
9. Tito
10.Tito
11.Tito
12.Tito

115-114 Tito.

I have to say that 11th round was pretty shamefull stuff by DLH. I would'nt go as far as to call it a 10-8, but I would'nt argue too much either.

Bump just seeing if anyone else wants to take part, when is the next fight Sweetpea ??

I'll still haven't gotten the chance to score this one myself. New fight will be in a couple days, maybe Monday.

Bump this for you SweetPea.

I am shocked no one has posted a score card with DLH winning... I though this was suppose to be a robbery.
