    Regardless if the fight is big or not means nothing, as you said a crime is a crime. Even a journeymen getting robbed by an up and comer is just as significant. Now more important fights are happening in Germany so they may move from petty crimes to hi******* Savings and Loan Banks.

      I much rather have a contreversal deciion in a fight someone could come up with a reason why a fighter won such as JMM vs Pacquiao (I think JMM won), rather than a outragous decision where a team of lawyers would not be able to prsuade a person who is watching a fight for the first time in their lives. A la Holyfield vs Valuev.

        Ok.. fair enough... one Judge had Taylor up 8-3 going into the 12th against Froch..

        Does that sound like fair judging??

          Not at all. That was a BS card as well. I had it 6-5 or 7-4 for Taylor, and would have had Froch winning if it went to a decision seeing as there would have been 2 KDs if Taylor had taken a knee and saved himself after the first KD.
