    Lara/Williams had me half a second from chucking my remote through the TV and walking out the door, never been that angry at a judges decision in my life.

    Delboy/Helenius 2nd

    chisora/helenius without question, ive never seen someone get beat so decisively in every single department and come out with a UD, but then again you have lara/williams. but still, chisora/helenius is one of the most disgusting robberies in the history of the sport

    The two mentioned, plus the obvious Pac-Marquez III, which was so bad not only because it was the clearest of the 3, but because of the history of the previous two fights.

    For me it was Devon Alexander vs. Lucas Martin Matthysse, with Lara-Williams a close second.

    After reading all the robbery comments on here I actually went and watched Pac-Marquez 3.

    What robbery? I actually had hard time giving Marquez any round. Pac threw, landed and out worked Marquez though out the fight.

    PS. I am not a fan of either of them, watched the fight only because of the noise and fuzz on the forum.

    You had a hard time giving Marquez at least rounds 5 and 9?

    Lara-Williams and Chisora-Helenius both left me with a sickening feeling.

    It wasn't a genuine robbery like Lara-Williams where one fighter clearly dominated, it was a gift decision to the wrong man in a close fight.

    JMM vs Pac
    Alexander vs Mathysse

    Were not robberies they were close fights that could have gone either way, JMM at most won the fight by 115-113, people just go off the fact he looked better in the fight than pac and ignore scoring round by round.

    Devon v Lucas - Alexander got an early lead that seems to get ignored, if it was 12 he would have lost but that fight was a 1 point difference who ever you gave it to

    :deal but what is really sick is that you just knew it was going to happen after the fight ended.

    Specially with Kalle Sauerland jumping in the ring like it was a foregone conclusion!

    Like he did with Lebedev against Huck.

    Slimey ***** that Kalle, I wish I could go in the ring a few rounds with him.

    A lot of promotors jumps in the ring.



    Chisora-Helenius was the worst decision I saw live. In fact I cannot remember seeing worse live. I had it 116-112 Chisora. I am glad he got a shot at Vitali and a nice payday.
