    For the most part I mean decisions that were so bad that today the official verdict has be overruled by the people and credit is given where it should be, but any other fight results that fit the thread title are welcome also, for example, a BS referee stoppage or DQ, perhaps? Anything where the official ruling was so bad it is largely ignored by the public. Two off the top of my head - Schmeling-Sharkey II, I see many people credit Schmeling with winning this fight and no one ever seems to argue over it. Also, Whitaker-Chavez, most seem to treat this as a Whitaker victory.

    Martinez/Cintron.

    Ottke/Reid

    Lennox Lewis/Holyfield I

    Hoya/Trinidad

    I a few people that feel this way about some of the Griffin/Luis Manuel Rodriguez fights, if not all.

    I don't know if it was raging bull or Mantequilla who said they felt Luis won all four against Emile

    JIM JEFFRIES V JACK JOHNSON.
    JIM won the first 10 rds, and then Johnson's brother CLAUDE, put drugged tea in his water bottle,and the noble warrior, the Champion Of Champions succumbed to the dastardly plot.

    Erdei-Garay 1 and 2, even Erdeis own fans were booing the decisions

    Recently, Guzman vs Funeka was pretty damn awful...I don't know anyone that watched the fight live think that Guzman deserved a draw.

    At least Funeka is getting a rematch anyway.

    Both were close fights that could have gone either way, not even close what to what is wanted here. :-(

    The German fanboy makes his appearance, how did I know you'd bite on this 1 :lol:

    These fights werent close and were a disgrace. Erdeis own crowd boo'ed the decisions, the people who came to support him. Should have been 9-3 or 8-4 to Garay

    Hoya Trinidad isn't disregarded as a consensus by any means, myself i had Oscar winning, but some had it a draw and i know people have commented saying Trinidad won. Whitaker-Chavez is the clear cut winner here, and also i've never seen anyone say the John-Marquez decision was good, it's a bad one imo anyway.
