The REAL worst robbery of all-time

[THE REED]

88 olympics - rjj - pak si hun

[bdevils]

Castillo v Mayweather 1.
Reid v ottke
Lewis v Holyfield
Holmes v Spinks 2


Bad decisions id go Barerra v Morales 1, Maggliani v Ngoujo, Graham v McCallum.

You call that one of the worst robberies?

[Degsy]

i think they were caught taking gifts from the korean coaches or something.

Would not suprise me, the ams stunk like ****, the only good thing to come out of that travesty was the new scoring system - not perfect but harder to cheat

like i said, it's amusing when people talk about the worst robberies of all-time, and people talk about some very close fight where one guy like castillo did nothing for the first 4-5 rounds, or some bout which the ringside press had it just about even, or even in favor of the winner whom everyone said was lucky (mosley-de la fishnet 2).

then you got cases where a fighter wins 11 of 15 rounds and loses the fight (everett), or a case when a guy really wins via stoppage or DQ about 3 times in the fight but loses (coggi-gonzalez), or a case where the referee helps carry the winner of the fight up from the canvas (wolgast-rivers).

Well lets get this clear.

It was a robbery.

Ottke vs Reid

Reid in his prime was a great fighter, to think this clown Ottke retired undefeated!

The ref job would make Joe Cortez happy!

Reid the only fighter in history to lose a point getting headbutted, Hatton the only fighter in history to lose a point hitting the top rope!

The new scoring system IMO, SUCKS. It rewards certain style of fighters, (i.e., combination punching is discouraged). For proof of this, if you get WorldSport HD they show the Pan-Am games once in a while, it's terrible. If not then watch Floyd Mayweather's last Olympic fight on YouToube...

Ottke vs Reid

I need to stop watching this fight, because everytime I watch it I just get more angry. Reid won that fight by at least 9 rounds not including the KD which was ruled a slip. This commentary was Duke Mckenzies finest hour. I agree with him 100%, the ref and Ottke are a complete joke.

Lol... you do know that press more than a few ringside scorers gave it Mayweather, and quite a few had it a draw, right?
