    Martinez-Cintron was much worse.

    That Corley fight against the 6'1" prospect was pretty bad also.

    I thought Diaz-Malignaggi was worse.

    Sturm-Gevor was much worse.

    Dirrell-Froch was scored poorly, IMO, but there is a legitimate argument that Froch won, if you give him a few of the close early rounds based on aggressiveness.

    Its not even close. The Cintron-Martinez farce was far worse - not 1 but 2 blatantly incorrect/crooked decisions in the same fight...

    Gotta say no even though I think Dirrell won the fight. Martinez vs Cintron got my vote.

    If Sturm vs Gevor was much worse it must've been like 118-110 in favor of Gevor. That's too much!
    Dirrel was leading something like 115-112. 116-111, wasnt scoring it, cuz I thought Dirrel wins after 30 seconds in round 1 and he was leading big time.

    Not even close to the worst!!! Fury Vs Mcdermott was ten times poorer.

    Froch against Dirrell looked a lot closer from ringside than on the telly. At the time i scored it 115 - 112 liek 2two of the judges but when i got home a scored Froch up by one.

    The one that sticks out in my head is Diaz-Malignaggi.

    Cinrton/Martinez, Malignaggi/Diaz or Berto/Collazo.

    I didnt think Diaz-Mallignaggi was a bad decision personally, this is the worst Ive seen this year, but havent seen the Martinez fight

    martinez-cintron is still the worst decision today by far. Cintrons gay ass dance made it even worse

    hmmmmm i dont think it was a poor decision, the closeness of each card shows how difficult the fight was to score.

    Martinez got horribly robbed against Cintron. I don't even know how he managed to con the ref into saying it was a headbutt!!!

    For me, an i'll get flack for this, the worst decision was cotto v clottey. I know it was close, but I think clottey deserved it. With that one wrong scorecard he went from being a truly great WW to being a gatekeeper.

    According to ESB Berto-Collazo was a worst decision.
