2009-Year of the robberies

Some of those aren't robberies.

Bradley-Campbell was corectly ruled a NC aswell.

 

Utter fail.

You can't be serious man. How can anyone call these two fights "robberies"? :nut I think MAYBE you can call the Froch/Dirrell fight a "gift" but nothing more.

 

Danny_Rand is right. Revisionist history is again forgetting how awful the scoring was. Clottey dominated the effective punches throughout the fight, dictated the tempo, and blocked virtually everything Cotto threw.

Dirrell flat-out dominated Froch, and outlanded him at least 10 to 1 in significant punches.

Bunch of hillbillies come out way after the fact and call it "close" to change the facts, just like Pac-Marq 2, where suddenly it was "close", when every significant poster at the time scored it for Marquez.

 

There should be more judges, even out the playing field a bit more and prevent so called robberies of bad judging.

 

not mention JMM was robbed by Floyd by overweight

 

the cut was caused by a headbutt, get over it.

The only blatent robery was Martinez Cintron, Kermit was KO'd and they let him continue.

Funeka got a pretty raw deal but still no robery

Everything else was way too close to call a robery.

 

Clotey vs Cotto
Williams vs Martinez was not robberies.

 

Never saw Sturm-Gevor so I wont comment on it. Bradley did not defeat Campbell there was video evidence of a headbutt then Campbell cut open right after it occured therefore its a NC. Diaz-Malignaggi 1 was very close its only considered a robbery because it took place in Texas. Juarez-John 1 was BS but atleast John didnt lose his title because of it, Funeka-Guzman was just flat horrible Guzman in a best case won 4 rounds, Clottey-Cotto was very close could have went either way although I feel Clottey won by 2 points but good luck winning a decision over Cotto in NY when you are from Africa, Williams-Martinez another super close fight.

 

Oh an d Cintron-Martinez was pathetic, first off Cintron got KOed and only won one round on my scorecard. It goes with that saying you have the knock a guy out just to get a draw.

 

You can't be serious. That's one of the worst robberies this decade.

 

Funeka was flat out robbed.

 

This thread just proves that people continue to overuse the word "robbery". What ever happened to "gift" decisions? If not that, a fight that was very close and could've gone either way? No, people have to exaggerate. Just because the guy you thought won lost, doesn't mean he was robbed.

 

100% agreed. :good

I had Martinez winning by 2 points over Williams. Again i think the poster is referring also to some of the Judges scorecards. CLottey vs Cotto was the worst scoring along with Funeka vs Guzman.
