Roberto Duran Proves The Douters Wrong......

[BennyST]

Even with the knockdown it shouldn't have been enough.Duran lost the vast majority of the early to mid rounds and only took the first and last three decisively.Had this been any other fighter who didn't have a bunch of idiots in the audience chanting their name throughout,then it would have been called a robbery.

A great champ like Iran Barkley didn't deserve this injustice.

So, you are saying that he took four rounds, one with a knock down, decisively but it was still a robbery? You have him basically winning five rounds decisively because of the extra point for the KD and there was more than one round which could have gone either way in between. A guy you dislike and you gave him five rounds.

How does that equate to a robbery?

That's how others would have perceived it to be.Take the Diaz-Malignaggi bout for example,relatively close affair of which apparently is the robbery of the decade.You could make a case for Diaz winning atleast seven rounds but Duran sure as hell never won seven rounds or even six.

115-112 is still a robbery in my book.
