    Off the top of my head the only one i could think of is Marvin Johnson, i don't remember him getting any gift decisions.

    Some people think he lost to Sergiy Derevyanchenko, and the Daniel Jacobs fight was somewhat debatable aswell, although i didn't see that much of an argument for Jacobs.

    Mike Tyson.
    Mike Tyson vs. Donovan Ruddock 1 is a controversial decision (obout tko) but not a gift.

    That's a good shout although there is some people that believe Tyson/Tillis is controversial. But i thought it was a close but clear decision for Tyson myself.

    I hate to be pedantic but in noway was Marvin a "great" as much as we all admire the man.

    As I said I didn't see much of an argument for Jacobs, but the Sergiy fight was razor thin close decision.

    The point of the thread, is which great fighter never had questionable decision in there entire career.

    And whether or not you think Golovkin won them fights, is irrelevant because they are still debatable decisions.

    I thought Golovkin won both fights, but I thought he only won Sergiy fight by a single point.

    Julian Jackson, largely by virtue of rarely leaving it to the judges.

    I haven't seen that many of his fights (none of the early or later stuff obviously), but Saoul Mamby seems a likely candidate.

    That TKO would have been a KO in a few more seconds. That's controversial?
