Controversial Decision tag...

Post by ThirdPartyView »

Antonio Ramirez vs. Juliano Ramos from 1/3/04 should have the 'Very controversial' tag removed, given the policy of the site.

No 'Controversial Decision' tags due to that being considered editorializing, as any fight can be considered controversial based on interpretation and personal biases.

While I'm here, here's a few more that I found:

Christy Martin vs. Laura Serrano - 5/7/94
Christy Martin vs. Isra Girgrah - 8/23/97
Christy Martin vs. Belinda Laracuente - 3/3/00

I'm not a massive fan of the removal of all controversial tags, but if they're going to be ditched it's better to ditch them all.

Nino Benvenuti vs Ki-Soo Kim
Laszlo Papp vs Germinal Ballerin

We have agreed to leave tags for bouts over 30 years, If a source is given. A lot of times the bouts are coming from newspapers which automatically gives a source. I'm not sure however, if all old bouts fit that bill.
