Forbes was clearly robbed. Even if Hopkins did deserve to win which he didnt, them scores were just unacceptable.

Penalosa deserved a few more rounds in my opinion than he got. I still think he clearly lost though, not that bad this one.

Then I found the Barrera-Marquez score ridiculous. I wasnt sure who was going to win, I could have seen it a few points either way. I scored it 7 rounds to 5 for Barrera and the knockdown was clearly a legit knockdown. Barrera then stood there waiting for the referree to come between them and when it didnt happen after he clearly waited he threw another punch. I understand he hit him when he was down and im not trying to justify it but im pointing out what most likely was the situation in Barrera's point of view. Close fight, great fight, I think Barrera deserved it.

The bad refereeing and judging ruined this PPV for me.

Why should it ruin it for u? u witnessed a great fight,**** what the judges think,u know who won the fight anyway,the fans are the judges

But ido admit,the Hopkins-Forbes match was ****ed up

marquez clearly won............as for forbes i had him outhustling hopkins most of the later rounds and the scores were dead wrong but that's boxing......

I agree with everything you said. I don't know how you can't score his perfect right hook a knockdown, nady is a ******. 116-111 for two judges? Unbelievable, if the scores were a lot closer, seeing as some rounds were close, and Marques won I would not be as pissed as I am now. Prolly one of the most perfect times open scoring would have helped, and instant replay aswell.

I enjoyed all the fights, especially the main event, but all the controversy just left a bad taste in my mouth other than being all hyped and excited.

To say either guy clearly won is ****** in my opinion. Your a liar if you say when the 12round ended you were sure Marquez won because it was clear cut.

Marquez clearly won that fight, aside from Barrera'a Cheerleading crew on the sideline the fight was not too close, though not 118-110, or whatever. The other fights were bad, PDL was closer and Forbes deserved the fight in my eyes.

**Gato2012** · 03-17-2007, 11:55 PM

In my opinion, all these fights were decided by the judges before they even happened. ***ing boxing

If Barrera was robbed,u would ahve heard it from the fans in the arena booing,but they didnt,they cheered the decision,not a single boo,they knew it was a great fight and Marquez deserved it

The judges are pathetic,but its Las Vegas,what do u expect?

I never claimed Barrera was robbed. I think it was a close fight, CLOSE FIGHT, that could have gone either way by a point or two. I thought Barrera won it even with that bul**** 7th round. If you gave it to Marquez by a point of two i could see that. But I cant find a way to agree with the judges cards....in any of them fights.

plus Marquez clooed the show better and thats usually what the crowd remembers, so they wouldnt boo.
