shut up you biased euro piece of ****

LOL, That's really funny....

I don't know what the big deal is. Both these guys suck, it's kind of a lose-lose situation for fans no matter who won.

I'm ***in pissed yo! for real

A judge had Valuev winning 8 rounds to 4. Are you serious with this? Holyfield won 5 of the first 6 rounds without question.

no one on this entire site had Valuev winning. not one.

I know that I watched on tele and the judges watched ringside. I also know that a lot of the rounds were void of action hence close, so points must by rule be given to the aggressor.

I believe an exact quote from Al Bernstein during this fight was

"Valuev has not won any round the entire fight by aggression"

[Sutekh uvdabrix]

@ anyone saying it wasnt a robbery


valuev=landed under 20 jabs...ZERO power punches

holy=landed power punches in every round...and more hooks than nikolai jabs


****in incredible

tell me. what was the crowds reaction to the fight?

and if no one at all thinks that Valuev won other than the judges...then surely its a robbery? If I wanted to, I look at Chavez vs. Whitaker and pick out 6 rounds that Chavez could have won. its still arobbery, because no one actually had him winning that many rounds.

couldve sworn I heard Valuevs trainer saying he needed a knockout to win....

[Zhaakal]

Reminded me a bit of the Jones vs. Park Si Hun amateur bout as far as judgeing goes. Definately not that dominating but a CLEAR victory to Holyfield.

[aljosa_raos]

I got like 10-2 for HOLYFIELD.BIGGEST ROBBERY!
IT WOULD BE ROBBERY IF IT WAS DRAW but MAJORITY DECISION horrible!!!

[The_Visitation]

The question one gotta ask oneself is: Could you see the other guy winning? Although I had Holyfield winning, I can understand the 2 judges that saw it differently.

I honestly can't. The worse I can see it is 114-114 even with every round I saw as close going to Valuev. How you could give it to him by four rounds is totally beyond me.
