50 of the Closest and Sometimes Controversial Decisions

Please check out this list I compiled. It's the first of a three part series i'm doing in hope of shedding some light on some of the most controversial decisions in boxing.

I'm working on a second part right now so if you don't see a particular fight, it's probably on that one.

I was shocked you didn't have De La Hoya-Trinidad in there. Oscar dictated the pace of the fight as the ring general, fought on his terms, frustrating Tito and outlanding him and besting Tito in all or most punch stats.

wow man really great job with this! That Holyfield-Leis bout was so completely ridiculous I can't even fathum it!

I have to admit, I'm really confused by the list and the objective here.

This will be the first of a series of slideshow presentations called "How Did You Score It: A Look Back at 50 of Boxing's Closest and Sometimes Controversial Decisions." In no particular order, it will list 50 of the most disputed and debatable decisions in boxing.

Please remember this is the first of several slideshows, so if you don't see a certain bout, it will be included in a future slideshow.

So is this to say that more than 50 fights will be listed?

Also, are you just listing the most debated outcomes, or the most controversial?

Will refrain from offering feedback for the moment...
