Worst decision in boxing history?

This fight always comes to mind for me....in all honesty about 90% of the fights already mentioned can be considered as unfavorable decisions however a justifiable argument can be made to support the W/L. You have to understand a good majority of posters (myself included) can subconsciously fall into some sort of confirmation biased when judging rounds. To remain completely impartial when reviewing a fight is almost un-human. Don't mean to go off on a tangent here so Chavez v swea pea an absolute robbery

 

Prime example of a fighter over achieving during one particular bout vs another fighter levels above him and people claiming a competitive fight was a robbery....Castillo made the fight ugly and was determined to outwork and out hustle the more skilled more talented and more intellectual fighter. The combination of grit and determination shown by Castillo overshadowed Floyd's counter punching and minus the rough housing Floyd's ring generalship. Still it was a close fight but far from a robbery.

 

Castillo vs Floyd 1

Santa Cruza vs Casamayor

Salido vs Martinez 2

Oscar vs Tito has to be the most famous robbery of all time

 

Insightful and profound as always Kush

I actually had Hoya winning by 2 rounds vs Tito far from a robbery but certainly unfavorable. You must admit it was the most cautious Hoya I've ever seen. What are your thoughts on the strum fight I personally thought Hoya lost only giving him a generous 4 rounds.

 

Whitaker vs Jose Luis Ramirez

ODH vs Sturm

 

ODLH versus Trinidad

Floyd versus Castillo first fight

 

Lastarza was the hometown fighter, but Marciano got the decision, it was probably far, there is no film of that fight.

 

Ali Norton 2 and 3.

There was a Philadelphia based 130 pounder who was a southpaw, Tyrone Everett who fought Alfredo Escalera for the 130 pound tile in 1977, , I did not see fight but it was said to have been big robbery. He was killed short time after in street incident, shot by his girlfriend. Everyone who saw him box swore he was going to be an all time great. The decision is forgotten now, but back then it was a big deal
