In your honest opinion, does taking dives, etc. still exist today in 2010?

Pac-DelaHoya was FIXED.
Pac-Clottey was FIXED.

and now, Pac-Margarito will be FIXED.

(all fixes arranged by Pac's co-promoter-Oscar DelaHoya)

hardcore accusations.

Probably not in title fights, but I'm sure there are guys that are desperate for a paycheque, that jump in with rising fighters for $1000, and take a knee because they're only there to pad the record. They take a bit of a beating and then bow out.

course it does

Of course, with people betting millions on a fighter to win, you had better believe that sometimes a boxer gets an unexpected phone call telling him that he had better come away the loser of the fight. Then they are told that their son or daughter is sleeping right now wearing blue pajama bottoms and has a poster of Hannah Montana or Spongebob on the wall......that boxer does what he is told.

what's creepier is that they say it's a soft spoken stuttering white dude who's been making those calls lately.........

Nothing su****ious about it. Did u see the Mosley/Mora fight? Mosley was tired after probably the 4th round. No surprise he got tired after the second with that huge flurry he threw (and missed ). He almost KO'd Floyd with one punch, and was clearly trying to go for the finish.

It's impossible for anyone to think Mayweather/Mosley was fixed, but not find any su****ion in Pacquiao/Clottey. Especially considering how much damage Clottey did with those few punches he did throw. Kinda gives a hint that if he threw the kind of punches that someone trying to win a fight would throw, he could have gotten a TKO from cuts or somethin.

If anyone can't see that, than they're just bias.

i totally agree with this post

Have to be naive to think it doesn't happen, that being said I don't think it happens in any of the decent sized fights, it usually happens in off-tv fights I'd guess...

no, they just buy the judges to vote a certain way.

Because Clottey fights siimilar style to that , its all the more feasible to swallow the scam without asking why he cut his work rate in 1/2 and backed of everytime he landed anything ,,, just like Margo looks like a plodder getting flogged by Mosley it will be feasible to say he tried hard but was always a plodder , again with half his normal work rate and no real offense ,,,, and you fools will swallow it like Uncle Bobs good little fanboy muppets .

So because the fight went the way it was expected, that mean it was fixed? He cut his workrate in half because Pac never stopped throwing. That's how Clottey always fights. Why aren't you asking if Margarito-Clottey was fixed, where Clottey was incredible for four rounds and then cut his workrate? Why aren't you asking if Cotto-Clottey was fixed, since Clottey lowered his workrate in the championship rounds despite having Cotto cut, hurt, an on fumes out there?
