Robberies that you're GLAD about

Discussion in 'General Boxing Discussion' started by Destruction and Mayhem, Sep 19, 2017.

  1. what terrible decisions that went against a certain fighter were you happy about because of the way that fighter fought? In other words although he objectively won more rounds...he fought in such an annoying manner that he really didn't deserve to be named the winner in your opinion?

    For me:

    Lennox Holyfield 1

    Considering the hype of that fight ( people seem to forget how hyped it was) it turned out to be such a stinker...and I blame Lennox Lewis mainly for that. No one deserved to win that fight by the way those guys fought.

    What others?

    I had a bunch of money on Paul Williams to beat Lara. Thank goodness. Honestly I hate it when fighters don't win when they deserve it, but this was one occasion I didn't care at all.

    I still don't like it in general when a fighter wins and doesn't get the deserved decision, but i felt least bad for DLH in the Mosley Rematch

    Williams-Lara was one of the worst robberies in the sport's long history of bad robberies. As a boxing fan, even if I had money on Williams, I wouldn't be happy.

    Lara won 9 or 10 DOMINANT rounds against Williams, and lost... it was appalling.

    I never thought that was a robbery. I thought Garcia BARELY scraped by Herrera.

    I thought Peterson beat Garcia though.

    Yeah now that you mention it, maybe it wasn't a robbery but I was glad Herrera didn't get the benefit of the doubt.

    Peterson definitely beat Garcia but he fought a shameful first half. Why the fuck didn't he turn it up sooner? Could have stopped Danny.

    I'm not glad about any robbery... I think the guy that won should win

    Yep, I hate robberies. Even if it's a fighter I pretty much hate, if he won he won, he should obviously be awarded the win.

    I third that. I hate robberies, regardless of who's involved.

    For example, I always hated Lewis with a passion, I was rooting for Holy to kill him back in 99. But when they robbed Lummox it was sickening.

    Speaking of bad robberies, Quartey-Forrest has to be one of the worst of the last 20 years. It was a 10 rounder, and Ike won like 7 or 8 rounds, yet they gave it to Forrest.

    Right, because not being happy about outright theft is a sign of "virtue".

    On fightbeat if you think robbery and sexual assault are wrong, it's considered "virtue signaling"

    Dude......everyone thinks sexual assault is wrong, but bragging about conquests of women who let you touch them up because you're a celebrity...is not sexual assault. Claiming that neither you or your friends are capable of bragging about your sexual escapades makes all of you righteous monks. Enjoy the Himalayas.

    You are known to be one of the most vicious cunts on these forums (in a funny way)...so you of all people shouldn't pretend you're the pinnacle of virtue. Leave that to a guy like Puerto Rock. ;)

    I pretend no such thing nor did I ever suggest chatting with your friends about girls is wrong

    I'm sorry, but let's be CLEAR... "I'd fuck the living shit outta her!", or "I bet she can suck a mean dick!" is GUYS talk.

    "I don't even wait! I grab them by the pussy!" is some creepy ass shit, and if one of my boys said that, I'd respond with "Fuck kinda rapist are you??"

    Exactly

    How the fuck are dudes here having such a hard time understanding this?

    It's being turned into "cdogg never says the word 'tits'"

  24. I give up. lol

    The context he said it was that as a celebrity they let you do things to them. Anyway whatever...

    As someone who actually had money on Williams, I was glad he got the decision.

    Trinidad vs DeLa Hoya. While I was pissed Tito didn't win fair and square, I was not complaining about the decision.
     
  30. If that is what Trump meant then I wholeheartedly agree with you. People shouldn't get away with shit because they're rich.

    I took it differently. I thought he meant that women were fine with him doing it because he's rich and famous.

    See the distinction.

    Anyway...it's done to death. All good
