    Does this happen often?

    I remember recenly Roy Jones Jr vs Pawel Glazewski in Poland. Glazewski won that fight clearly but got robbed.

    Any other examples?

    When I saw the thread title Roy vs Glazewski was the first fight that popped into my mind. Also because Roy was fighting yesterday. :good

    Other example Adamek vs Cunningham II

    it obviously doesn't happen very often, hence the low number of replies.

    Home advantage in boxing is probably one of the biggest advantages to have in any sport.

    I remember watching that fight and was fuming afterwards. Jorrin just fought in spurts and didn't do anywhere near enough to win.

    Jorrin must have had either the best luck of any boxer or his team were paying out bribes to anyone and everyone because all of his title fight decisions were highly controversial. I literally jumped for joy when Larios KO'ed him the rematch.

    Although Wlodarczyk won the first fight against Cunningham by split decision, the 119:109 card in favour of Cunningham was really awfull
