    didnt see chisora vs helenius...so i have to go with lara vs PW.
    i dont consider pac vs jmm a robbery, but i believe jmm should have won that fight

    You can't go wrong with either the Lara or Chrisora robbery and I agree with you on your assessment of the JMM vs PAC fight. I think JMM edged PAC but it was close...no way a robbery.:good

    Watched all those fights I could even put them in order because to me it's obvious the level of robbery.

    Lara
    Chisora
    Marquez
    Macklin
    Matthysse

    To me there can be no other order.

    Number 1 = PAC vs Marquez

    We were waiting for Marquez to: I'm going to KO PAC and not leaving it to the hands of the judges / plus I'm not going to run like coward Mosley

    Biggest robbery because we the fans got robbed / we saw none of the Marquez promise

    :yep I get Chisora won by 2 point's and actually most of the rounds were very close..Chisora was aggressor, but most punches Helenius blocked

    Fight was also Helenius home crowd...

    Williams - Lara

    Chisora - Helenius

    Alexander - Matthyesse

    Sturm - Macklin

    in this order

    Pac - Marquez was not a robbery. was a close fight, could have gone either way, but i had it 7-5 Pac...Marquez stepped off the gas, was his fight to win and he chose to lose it, can only blame himself...

    Pacquiao / Marquez because it happened 2 times before and this time Marquez was a 38 year old Lightweight

    Chisora vs Helenius was probably the worst in terms of the size of the discrepancy, but Marquez-Pacquiao was such a high-profile fight that it really did the image of the sport no good. Roach thought Pacquiao needed a KD/KO, Khan had Pacquiao losing and even Pacquiao himself showed in his body language at the last bell that he knew he'd lost.

    I suppose Helenius - Chisora was the worst by the amount of points they got it wrong, that said Pac vs JMM3 was still outrageous and had historical significance.

    Guess ill go with the Chisora fight, although i want to vote on the Pac fight.
    *edit actually **** it im picking JMM cause its not the first time they did it to him but this one was the most blatent.
