    Learn the diff. between a Robbery and a Close fight

    This happens all the time and its obnoxious. A bunch of people jump on the bandwagon and start posting about so and so being robbed while he lost a close fight by a couple of points.
    You want to see a robbery? Watch Louis-Walcott I, Roy Jones in the Olympics, Chavez-Whitaker, Brinkley-Bonsante II, or recently Casamayor-Cruz.
    You want to see a close fight? Theres alot, just watch boxing and stop crying robbery everytime its a close fight and your guy didn't win.

          If this is In reference to last night's fight.. Then allow me to put it in perspective...

          There was No robbery... what there was .. was quite a few very close rounds..

          Now had this fight been In Montreal.. then I am willing to bet Ngoudjo would have taken the bulk of those "close" rounds..
          However The fight being in the Greater NY area.. And with Malignaggi being the champ.. He was given the Bulk of the close rounds..

          Robbery???? No way..

          Home Town Decision???... More likely

              This fight is much like the Hagler-Leonard fight. It depends how you score fights. Do you score for aggression and harder hitting, or movement and more weaker hits?
              I thought Paulie was more hurt and Herman did more damage to him, but Paulie won more rounds. He won the fight to me.

                The fight last night was certainly no robbery.

                It was a 6-6 or 7-5 Paulie fight. And that's effectively how it was scored.

                    I tried to stay awake to watch it but fell asleep...
                    Was it a good fight with plenty of action?
                    Worth the download?
                    Or just mediocre?
                    I'm not a big fan of Paulie but I do enjoy a good fight.
