Remember the Montreal screwjob?

[Battle*Hardened]

Oh lookee a ****ing imbecile who hasn't bothered doing his research and is applying his subjective view on a matter which has been confrimed as legit by all those involved. Have you even bothered checking what happened in Montreal? Or are you going on guesswork and assuming it was scripted because of the scripted nature of pro wrestling?

Do your homework kid...

It's fake wrestling. Mcmahon called the bell when he got caught in the singature move.

Can Arum ring the bell and wave the fight if Margarito throws a left hook to the liver?

Bret hart was on his last fight in wwe against Shawn michaels in Montreal.

WWE type wrestling is lame...but just for the record here...that took place in Hart's home town of Calgary...not Montreal.

[Weebler I]

Believe it or not it was real

lemme guess, it's still real to you

Cotto's destiny is in his own hands

did you compare boxing to wrestling?

Floyd's last fight was straight out of the WWE, hit the guy when the ref isn't looking and have the good guy counted out by a cheap shot, all that was missing was Ellerbe running in with a chair

[turbotime]

It's obviously beyond my understanding... It was fake...... What happened in the ring was fake. I just don't understand how that's comparable. Arum can't make anyone lose a certain way.

He was able to make Marquez lose a decision a couple weeks ago.

McMahon is a bigger **** than Arum that's for sure.

I was thinking he was just an actor lol.

[spsomething]

i see the comparison. wrestling is fake, sure. they michaels, hart, and mcmahon talked about how it would go before it happened (as they always do it wrestling), hart gets the win. hart walks out and mcmahon goes up to shawn michaels and basically goes, "fcuk what i told him, youre going to win the fight." quick bell and michaels gets the win. he even wrote about it in his book(insert joke here) about how he felt like a jackass for taking advantage of it. so yes, wrestling it fake, but it was a straight up screwjob about who would win.

Dude, it's called the MONTREAL screwjob for a reason lmao, Survivor Series 1997 took place in Montreal, did I miss something?

Anyways, although "Cotto's destiny is in his own hands" as Weebler nicely put it, we know that the sport of Boxing is not above controversy, have ya'll seen the bull**** that has happened this year? Plenty of fights this year been tainted with some form of controversy.

If the fight is close, something is gonna go down. IDK if Arum will play a role, but if he and Cotto's relationship are strained as he puts it, i will not be surprised to see Margarito getting the decision.

Its fake though?

LOL that isn't why its called the montreal screwjob, Bret Hart was getting ready to retire and wanted his last match to be a the winner as champ.

McMahon told him that would happen, in the middle of the fight McMahon changed the set and screwed Bret Hart over knowing it was his last contract fight.

Hart LEGITIMATELY assaulted McMahon backstage after. I still have my tape from that LOL where they showed it (later dvd's etc edit that out).

[The Gambler1981]

If I was Cotto I wouldn't want to leave the fight in the judges hands~

You're right ...I don't follow that crap at all...just thought I remembered that from Hart's documentary which I watched because there was nothing better on the tube at the time.
