      So, Whiatker vs Ramirez I, Whitaker vs Chavez, Mosley vs De La Hoya II, James Toney vs Dave Tiberi, Lewis vs Holyfield I.

      Were all close fights, that could of either way? No all should of been awarded to the loser and instead of a draw.

      There have been lots and lots of bad decisions, over the years. That haven't been close fights.

        Lewis vs Holyfield I - Classic example of an overrated robbery.Now,Lewis was shafted in the decision,but it's not like he won every single round against Holyfield,he didn't fight the best perormance of his career or put on a masterclass.If not for the magnitude of the fight,no one would even bring this fight up.



        Shane Mosley vs Oscar De La Hoya - I scored this 7 rounds to 5 for De La Hoya,but many ringside actually scored it for Mosley.Many to this day still regard Mosley as the true deserving winner.


        Pernell Whitaker vs Jose Luis Ramirez - So many discredited Andre Dirrell's masterclass over Carl froch,claiming that he fought "negatively" and that he didn't do enough to take the title.You could argue the same thing for Whitaker's fight with Ramirez.I personally scored it as a wide clear winner for Whitaker,but he did run an awful lot during those middle rounds.

          Jesse Burnett vs Leon Spinks. I had Burnett winning 10 rounds out of 12, and Spinks was given the fight.

                Burnett was one the wrong end of many bad decisions.

                    I've always thought it was Chavez-Whitaker. Pea dominated that fight and a draw was just an atrocious decision.
