Anyone see the Toney vs. Tiberi fight?

Two questions:
1) Was it a good fight?
2) In your opinion, was Tiberi robbed?

Hey..I was looking through my stack of videos and found one labeled Toney-Tiberi! When I get a chance to look at it I'll post my opinion. I recall athe the time that the announcers were saying Toney wasn't doing anything and they thought the decision was wrong, but I remember it as a tough one to judge becauseToney was doing so many clever defensive moves and I give credit for that.Hate to leave you in suspense waiting for the official (i.e. mine) verdict and comment will try to get to this soon.

Tiberi was robbed of the championship. I think Toney overlooked him and he was a light puncher, but he had heart that afternoon and Toney ended up pulling out a lucky win

I think that Toney got a big time gift in the win. Toney did overlook Tiberi, but then again...he may not have completely recuperated from the war that he had with Mike McCallum had a couple of months beforehand.

Tiberi didn't get robbed.....Toney kicked his ass.
