Was the Tarver v Johnson decision a robbery?

[neils7147933]

This "bad decision" (from my perspective) simply comes from the judges seeing the fight differently than me. I can't see any reason why there would be any outside factors when the fight wasn't for a belt and nothing other than bragging rights was really at stake.

They both came in as #1, #2 money men, draws at lt. heavy (with Roy in limbo) and both left the fight the same.

The best money and most interesting fight is a rematch. Nothing else at lt. heavy is a big deal right now.

Just out of curiosity, how did you have the fight scored?

Unfortunatly I didn't score it tonight,lol.I knew it would be close and it could have gone either way much like most of the MAB-Morales Trilogy fights.

hell no...it was a close fight..tarver f'ed up by resting one of the "championship round (10)"...anyway i dont think any of them deserved to win..bu i am glad glen won..anyway..(rematch of course is coming up,cuz it the best money out there for both)

its weird when tarver loses and look like he lost his best freind in the rinf after the fight i feel sorry for him..but when he does win he act like a ****** and i hate him...me and tarver have a weird relationship lol...bastard

it was a close enough fight that the word 'robbery' isn't fair.

I was just thinking that when I saw you post. I used the word in response to the other thread.

The term 'Robbery' WOuld be taking things way too far.

[Truth]

It could have gone either way but Johnson has been robbed so many times isn't good to see it go his way for once. It was very close but to call it a robbery would be kind of extreme.

It was an awesome fight, I would have been satisfied with either one winning or it being a draw. Such a back in forth battle. My card matched Lederman's card to a tee!

They really have to fight a rematch, it was too close to close the show on this fight.

The only thing that bothered me in this fight was how many references Lampley made to the RJJ fights.

I smell a trilogy starting here.
