What was the biggest robbery of 2013?

provodnikov vs bradley should of been 2 knockdowns

 

Vera got paid...No robbery

You only win if you dent that legendary chin...fair enough :deal

 

1. Broner beating Paulie
2. Burns drawing with Beltran
3. Chavez Jr beating Vera

/Thread

 

Burns keeping his belt in a draw with Beltran was the worst imo. Burns pretty much got beaten pillar to post, suffered a KD too. Even the british commentators were giving out about the decision.

Chavez-Vera I think many people had 6-4 to Vera, so while it was highly contraversial, I don't think having it 5-5 or 6-4 to Chavez was AS bad as giving Burns 6 or more rounds in his fight vs. Beltran.

Malianaggi - Broner was a close fight and a SD was ok, no robbery there.

 

this

 

But no way you can give Broner more than 6 rounds. Also take into account the points reduction Broner should have had for kicking Paulie in the balls: robbery :deal

 

grooves vs froch count?

 

broner malignaggi

And the rest have already been mentioned. Burns vs beltran, jccjr vs vera were disgusting.

 

I have to go with Burns and Beltran. That one was bad. Reminded me of Rios and Abril. I think sometimes guys forget what a real robbery is. That fight can't even be close for it to be a robbery. If the fight was somewhat close, and the guy you want to win doesn't get the decision that doesn't make it a robbery.

 

broner vs malignaggi wasent a robbery, it was close but not a robbery

 

A poll on here for Broner-Malinaggai had 157 votes. 69 (44%) said Broner won, 33 (21%) had it a draw and 55 (35%) had Malinaggai winning. I remember press scores were similar though I can't find them now. That shows a close fight where it was a case of quantity vs quality. No robbery.


Press scores for Vera - Chavez Jr showed 53 scores for Vera, 6 draws and 0 for Chavez Jr.

For Burns - Beltran, 44 press scores were collected and all 44 had Beltran winning.

I think this gives a good indicator that both Chavez - Vera and Burns - Beltran were robberies, Broner - Malinaggai was a close fight.

 

But if you asked them how many points they believe Broner should've been deducted and take that off Broner's score.....I believe it would've been more 100% Paulie.
