    Has there ever been a euro in the bay area?

    In the states there's been plenty like Schulz against Foreman and Sturm against DLH just to name 2...

        Im not in the bay area, I meant the US as a whole. Sturm DLH wasnt a robbery to me, didnt see Schulz/Foreman. There may have been a couple but it seems they would rather rob US against US fighters since that happens so much.

            On topic, Ottke should have losses to Brewer, Mitchell, Reid and Larson. Johnson fight was close but it could have been a draw.

            The Kessler fight is in Ward hometown so its a possibility, how many possible world champions have Oakland had? I'm not knowledgeable in that area.

            If there a robbery tonight, then it will be the AA-Taylor fight (if Taylor deserves to win then he'll get robbed. Its in Germany.

              Sturm-De La Hoya
              Meehan-Brewster
              De La Hoya-Mosley
              Toney-Tiberi
              DLH-Mosley (assuming your talking about the rematch) wast that bad a decision. it was a very close fight. i had it 115-113 DLH but it could easily have been a draw. dont think DLH deserved to lose but it wasnt a robbery by any means. a close fight where perhaps the wrong guy got the vote. the others i agree with, except i havent seen meehan-brewster so idk.

              ohh i just read u said the worst decisions u seen were in the US, first thought u said it was a list of just the worst US decisions.. germany have far worse decisions than the US my friend. England too.

                    Wonder why does Germany feel they need to do that.

                      Add Froch/Dirrell to the long list of European robberies.
