Famous draws
Two famous draws I can recall both involve Gene Fullmer
A nasty head butting draw with Joey Giardello that was televised
and a draw with Sugar Ray. They fought 4 times...Fullmer 2decisions
Sugar Ray with the famous KO and a draw.

Fenech, Benn and Hagler all got robbed in their time.
Fenech beat Nelson first time round; no debate needed.
Benn edged Eubank secomd time round. Only just; but just was enough.
Marvellous Marvin Hagler beat Antuofermo well before he arrived in London to beat Minter for the title.
Somewhere in this list of legendary fighters is a half-forgotten Irishman called Ray Close who beat Eubank cleanly, clearly and with plenty to spare all the way back in 1993 in Glasgow. The decision still stinks the place out 21 years later and Close should be enjoying the life of an ex-world champion.

If other sports can have overtime and amateur wrestling can have an extra period to decide a winner, why not boxing then. One more round, winner of the round wins the fight.
