    What’s the widest scorecard in boxing history?

    The widest one I can find is Julio Cesar Chavez Jr vs Danilo Cabrera.

    120-102, 120-102, 120-105.

    Does anybody know of a wider card?

    Would have to be a really lopsided fifteen rounder. I have no clue.

      This ^ no 12 rounder is gonna be close to a wide 15 rounder...


      However, I ain't sure this counts and I'm not sure they ever got a fight wide enough to be in the running, but apparently the WBU were experimenting with a 20 point must system in the mid-late 90s, which could potentially have created some spectacularly wide wins...

      http://www.angelfire.com/or/ultimate...ssrelease.html

      On Saturday morning a more focused attitude was adopted. The WBU Committee had selected a close contest for their judges to score using the 20 point must system. The judges were split into teams of three with a WBU Fight Commissioner Collating The Scoring.

        I don't know about 15 rounders but Pacquaio put a shut out and dropped Algeri 6 times, that must of been 120-102

          I’m guessing Larry Holmes vs Tex Cobb. 15 rounds and Larry won them all big. Afterward Cobb said Holmes didn’t win the fight just the first 15 rounds. Hilarious!

            Scores were 119-103, 119-103 and 120-102,
            but Algieri's corner was waiting for the right moment to let Chris "out of the cage!" :-)

              Wasn't that the fight where Tex Cobb asked the referee to help him because he was white too?

                "I wonder if that referee is constructing an advertisement for the abolition of the very sport he is a part of"
                Howard Cosell calling the Holmes/Cobb fight. He never called a fight again.

                  There is a really funny video of Tex Cobb roasting Larry Holmes..

                  I think he said something like this to Larry

                  You gave me some great memories....... and took some away.... so they tell me..

                    I thought the bad decision Roy Jones got in the Olympics was pretty wild.
