even worse of a decision than the biggest fiasco I have ever seen in boxing? the decision i am talking about happened in the Seoul Olympics, when Roy Jones Jr pummelled the Korean fighter, I mean completely owned him for 3 rounds. I do not recall if the Korean fighter even connected on 5 punches in any of the 3 rounds. However, the judges awarded the bout and the gold medal to the Korean fighter........it was absolutely the worst decision I have ever seen in boxing.

Hmm, "worst decision" in boxing that I've ever seen has a lot of nominees. Olympic boxing hasn't been worth a shit since they changed the scoring, and Americans typically don't train to throw scoring punches, so they lose. If you want to enjoy watching boxing, my advice is to change the channel after the bell for the final round. One of my favorite fights of all time was watching Pernell Whittaker beat the crap out of JCC, and we knew before the decision he'd be lucky to end up with a draw.

Mike Tyson was leading on two of the three scorecards when he was knocked out by Buster Douglas, and he actually won maybe two rounds in that fight.

I mean I just say this cuz Soto beat the shit out of Lorenzo in the fight... seriously.. he broke his nose... which was notable.... and then he went on to cut under his eyebrow.. and that shit didnt stop bleeding.. it was really bad... how the fuck do you disqualify Soto for a slight punch on the back of the head after the other guy kneels to the ground? The fucking referee almost stopped the fight twice.. but he didnt for some reason.. it was unexplainable...

I really don't get it.. everyone was mad at the decision.. it was a really stupid referee.

Cortez is brutal. I think he has alzheimers.
