Biggest travesty in boxing history?

Nice first post good points.

 

Whitaker-Chavez was a big event and bad decision, but not THAT bad.

I've seen way worse miscarriages of justice in boxing.

 

I don't see why RJJ and Calzaghe would have to weigh in again. If they are under 168 they must be under 175.

 

No RJJ at Seoul? Does it get much bigger than that?

 

The Joe Louis story, horrible.

 

Billy Collins vs. Luis Resto comes to mind when I think of travesties in boxing.

Gosh there I go with the Irish again (personal reasons. Can't seem to get them out of my head)

The old Mob influence was also a travesty.

Ali being stripped of the title because of his refusal to be inducted (there I go with the Irish again).

Joe Louis and how he was treated ranked up there too.

Roy Jones being robbed of a gold medal.

Mike Weaver being stripped of his title for no clear reason other than doing the rope-a-dope.

Blacks being denied at early title shots because they were Black.
