    More Egregious Draw: Whitaker-Chavez or Lewis-Holyfield 1

    Watched both of these fights recently. Two huge fights in the 90s that ended in disgraceful draws.

    Lewis-Holyfield 1 was worse to me. Chavez was more competitive.

    Eugenia Williams actually gave the 5th rd to holy, which was the most one sided round in all of the 24 rounds they fought.

    I voted for Lennox-Holy because i thought it was a clear blowout win or Lennox,,

    Chavez-pernell is a bad decision, but that one i felt was alittle more competitive IMO

    Both bad, but lennox was a clear 116-112, 117-111 type winner, and i thought pernell was a 115-113, 116-112 type winner

      I don't know. I haven't watched Lennox/Holyfield since I saw it live. All I remember is Holyfeld's big ass bald head getting bounced around by jab after jab.

      Whitaker/Chavez I think I had it like a solid 116-112.

        I had jcc/whitaker 117-111, could've been 116-112. I think that fight was just so big though, I have to vote for it instead of the lewis/holyfield one.

          I have yet to watch the Lewis-Holyfield match but the Whitaker one was completely bad. JCC clearly lost that fight, although it was competitive at times.
