    Stupid.
    I've seen many American fighters lose in the Olympics due to East Block voting.
    I watched an American knock down a guy twice and lost...
    in Amature a jab to the nose counts as much as a KD.

    Jones knew he had to have a KO because of home court advantage and could not do it.

    Lewis-Holyfield & DLH-Trinidad were some of the most audacious. The whole damn world was watching :-(.

    Wasn't biggest robbery, but deserves to be mentioned: Juan Urango vs. Naoufel Ben Rabah. Rabah boxed the ears off Urango and it's as if the judges had their scorecards filled in for Urango before the fight even started. Urango didn't land a meaningful punch the whole fight.

    most of these mentioned are not robberies.

    here is in my opinion the biggest **** job of all time:

    Alfredo Escalera beat Tyrone Everett by SD in 15 rounds. shameful..... ****ing shameful.

    Everett got ****ed tranny-style in his own hometown.

    I disagree there mate, I was at the show a the Reebok and Kindelan looked lethargic open to shots and not throwing enough himself. He looked like a man who was either on his way out of boxing or a like a man who had been paid a considerable amount of money to let Khan win.


    The rumour has it from around the arena was the latter and from that I stuck £100 on Khan @ 2/1. Funnyily enough it came in.

    I chose to believe the latter taking into consideration it was oinly months prior to that fight when Kindelan gave Amir a boxing lesson in the Olympics.

    Lewis vs Holyfield I seems to be a popular choice for this thread and I agree because Eugenia Williams had no business scoring that fight.

    Delahoya was robbed against Trinidad but he got gifts from the judges when he fought Mayweather, Quartey and Sturm.

    Leonard vs Hearn II, often comes to mind and I had Tommy winning that fight.

    Other than that, George Chuvalo got robbed vs Terrell.

    Oscar De La Hoya vs. Felix Trinidad. Took the guy to school for 7 to 8 rounds then sat on his lead till then end of the fight. Bernard Hopkins was viewing De La Hoya's fight with Trinidad and formed a game plan from it and look what happened in his fight with Trinidad.
