You can add/chalk up one more fight that I would use to illustrate why Las Vegas:
Is worse.
I can't agree with that, because that's like saying there's more accidents on the Interstate than on a back road.
There's WAY more fights in Vegas than in Germany. There's fight in Vegas weekly.
There are also way more high profile and title fights in Vegas, and I'd say stasticlly I've seen far worse things in Germany than in Vegas pound for pound.
Also, that ref counting out Krasniqi in the 8th round of the Brewster fight and then pausing for a 4 count after he got to nine was one of the most disgracefull things I'd ever seen.
some accounts i heard are saying that b-pac came with guns blazing in the first two rounds decking famoso in the secound, won the fifth round and came strong in the last three rounds to warrant a decision.
famoso only tried to rally in the last 30 seconds of every round where he was able to steal some of them from b-pac.
scorecards:
Duane Ford (95-93 B-Pac)
Chuck Giampa (95-94 B-Pac)
Robert Hoyle (97-92 Famoso)
I suppose I can see that. El Sureno made that arguement...but for the sake of "robberies" per say.
Higher stakes fights with more exposure might be considered worse.
Don't get me wrong, Vegas is bad, but I think Germany puts me off because I often see the German fighter the benifit of some outrageous blatent wrong doing.
In Vegas, it's very rare either fighter involved in vegas is even from Nevada.
Stuff like the Mosley Delahoya decision and the one tonight are very sickening, and I don't mean to excuse them in any way.

Would you at least agree to some extent.
That I am not totally insane when I say that Arum is a marked man?
It was a close fight.Im Pinoy but i had Famoso winning in my scorecard.There were alot of rounds you could call either way...There was a definite pattern that showed.B-Pac would come out firing with crisp combinations at the start of every round.Then he would tire out and Famoso would launch a counter attack midway till the end of the round...So, alot of the rounds you could give to B-Pac for a fast start or to Famoso for a sterling finish.Guess the judges gave the nod to B-Pac.
I have no problem with Bobby getting the decision.Like what i said, it was a close fight.And it was on American soil, so no one can claim a hometown decision.
