    "Lewis-Holy 1" cuz the fight was huge PPV and the world was watching....... That was a black eye that's still not heeled to this day.....

    Runner up:

    "Fenech-Nelson 1." That draw stunk like a nasty fart in a movie theatre in 1991, but Nelson proved himself in the '92 rematch...

    they all sucked bad but lewis-holyfield was in a class of it's own. there's just no effing way that fight was close. 3 of the 4 had a promoter in common. i'll let you guess who it was.

    Lewis vs. Holyfield.

    I have never seen how this could be scored anyway other than 117-111 for Lewis. This was such a clean and easy fight to score. Evander didn't do ****-He was completely shut out of the fight.

    Whitaker v. Chavez is second. It was a little closer than the Great Heavyweight Robbery, but not much.

    Interesting....
    Was that controversial at the time ?

    I always thought was a close decision, but not a robbery or something....

    The California State Middleweight Title?

    Either way, that ain't the biggest robbery. It was a 10 round fight, of which I had Armstrong winning 6 to Garcia's 4 if memory serves.

    Hagler-Antuofermo I was a good decision. Vito fought well, made many rounds close. Hagler won on my scorecard by one point, and 1 point in 15 round fight is the closest battle you can get

    Whitaker-Chavez or Lewis-Holyfield gets my vote

    There have been fights contracted to end in a draw if both fighters finish on their feet.

    That would allow for some prety dire results.
