Was Schmeling really robbed in his second fight with Sharkey?

If so, any particular reason or was it just a bad decision? It's a shame, first that, then he doesn't get the title fight against Braddock after beating Louis, which I'm pretty sure he would have won.

Jack Sharkey was an excellent boxer-puncher and I like to watch him. But from what I have read, Max Schmeling would have deserved a close decision or at least a draw. It was a tactical and technical fight without real highlights.
