    Mayweather and Pacquiao was fixed , Manny agreed because he made more money in that fight than in his entire career.
    P.S. that fight was horrible

    CLenelo vs Kovalev was rigged, Kovalev was dealing with serious legal issues right before the fight and needed money badly

    Both Ali vs Liston fights were fixed.

    Cerdan's loss to LaMotta was faked. Cerdan was supposed to win the rematch and a third fight would have taken place on a fair basis.

    Bob Arum soaked in Pacquiao's loss to Bradley and maybe even the one to Horn.

    Canelo vs Kovalev was fixed. The Russian was happy to have a big check plus a well paid fight on DAZN (only if he lost!)

    Ali purposely lost to Spinks to avoid a fourth fight against Norton.

    On that topic, my favorite boxing conspiracy is Khan believing that Joshua was nailing his wife.

    Khan was/is fantasy driven. I hope he has someone handling his money for him.

    What part of taking a dive is getting up and fighting again until the incompetent ref stops it over a nonsensical reason?
