    I want to add a fight that wasn't "big" in terms of relevance or public interest but "big" in terms of how much of a robbery it was. It's still fresh in my mind and still ticks me off. DeMarcus Corley VS Hector Sanchez. My opinion is that they gave a dishonorable gift to the young up-and-comer because he's a prospect and had a perfect record and they robbed a very clearly superior former champion because he's not particularly marketable and his time is thought to be long gone. I was completely repulsed by that decision. A Unanimous decision at that. Sickening. Holyfield VS Valuev shouldn't have happened but since it did, it should have made Evander a five-time HW champ, since he clearly won.

    DLH - Trinidad was pretty bad, not as bad as RJJ Olympic robbery, but bad....

    Mayweather v. Castillo was not a robbery at all. Some might consider it a "close fight", but to say it was a robbery is just plain wrong.


    Ruiz v. Holyfield I was a massive robbery.

    I'll add my voice to the 'Castillo was robbed against Mayweather' camp :lol:

    I thought he won by a couple of points.

    You can't NOT ENGAGE for 3-4 rounds and EXPECT to win, but I did have DLH up 6-5 with 1 even or even 7 rounds to 5, but NO robbery...


    Robberies are Lennox Lewis v Evander Holyfield I
    (This fight was SO bad that I won a bet with my best friend on that fight, but couldn't accept the money..........The bet was only $10 dollars:yep); and

    Roy Jones at the 1988 Seoul Olympics, now that's disgusting

    DLH - Trinidad was a robbery

    There is no way you can score that fight for trinidad if you watch boxing

    DLH schooled him, and the rules don't state that you can't run for a few rounds; they state that the man with the most points at the end win's the fight

    DLH clearly did that

    robin reid vs sven ottke - this fight pissed me off royally when i finally got a copy of this...in any place other than germany robin would have taken the 0 from sven....what a joke of a fight this was

    mike weaver vs mike dokes 2 - weaver clearly won it IMO

    any fight with john ruiz as heavyweight champion
