    the judges were paid off, there is no way that was a draw.

    That was BS.

    I thought Rahman clearly won.

    Toney was the challenger, and he didn't do anything to deserve a draw. Rahman was much more busy and landed more. Toney had some clean shots here and there, but overall he just didn't do much.

    With bad decision and poor fighters.. who would still want to watch the heavyweight?

    haha feel sorry for the suckers who paid cover to watch it at a bar.

    my normal place was empty, usually fight night such as there are standing room only, we walked in and got a seat immediately.

    That's true.

    but I spent my night watching spurs/rockets as the rox continue to try in vain to prevent the opponents from scoring over 50 pt so they can win a game...

    and then this rahman/toney show where toney stumble thru the length of the ring every time he misses a right hand... and ended in a DRAw

    They should have pay me.
