Fighters that were robbed more than 1 time

Ken Norton....Ali II & III...and the fight with Larry Holmes in 1978...

 

Pernell Whitaker - Ramirez I and Chavez
Guillermo Jones - Laurent Boudouani I and II and Johnny Nelson
Erislandy Lara - Paul Williams and Canelo

 

Probably Whitaker. You could make an argument he beat Oscar too.

 

In recent times, it'd be Fres. The guys that get robbed are not the house fighters.

 

JMM. I’m glad he brought his own judges to the 4th Pacquiao fight.

 

The most robbed of all was Emmanuel Augustus

 

How good would Fres be remembered if he got a fair shake. Not to mention the Ruiz bout was one of the quickest stoppages ever in a fight Oquendo should of been up in by a round.

 

Probably not robbed as often as legend may have it, but Glen Johnson was unlucky against Judah, Gonzalez and Woods to name a few. A lot of this other fights were very close and could have gone the other way, even if not full blown robberies.

Reggie Johnson was unlucky against Castro x2 and Toney. I haven't seen the Tarver fight, but I've seen some say it could have gone the other way. I've also never been inspired to watch his fight with John David Jackson which was also apparently close. Johnson was never stopped, and other than against Jones he doesn't seem to have been decisively beaten at any point.

Some styles and attributes seem to lend themselves to indecisive distance fights, and the more of these fights you have the more chance there is of being on the wrong end of the decision. Both Glen Johnson and Reggie Johnson seemed to find themselves in a lot of these fights, although ironically their signature wins were brutal one punch knockouts other heavily favoured opponents who were regarded as much bigger hitters.

 

Not on a consistent basis, but I felt Luis Rodriguez was outright robbed against Emile Griffith in their 3rd and 4th world title fights. To the point where I couldn't even make a case for Griffith. Maybe it was just me being so impressed with Luis' bodywork. But those two always stick in my mind.

 

Lara vs Williams was a joke, I scored the Canelo fight to Lara, but due to the nature of his fighting style and Canelo being the a-side fighter I already knew who's hand was getting raised. As much as I hate to say it you could make an argument for Canelo winning that once, but the thing that makes me laugh is it followed a similar pattern to Golovkin-Canelo, yet Canelo recieved the benefit of the doubt.

 

Frankie Randall against JC Chavez (second fight) and Juan Coggi (second fight).

WBA and WBC corruption saved favorite sons in those two fights.

 

Good shout. Randall seemed to be one of those fighters with a permanent rain cloud hovering over his head.

Not nitpicking, but was Coggi II a bad judges decision, or simply Coggi exploiting the circumstances as they happened? With only 4 rounds completed and a 10-8 round against Randall, he needed to sweep the other 3 rounds to get the nod.
