    Every not winning fighter thinks they were robbed! I'm not saying you weren't, well, maybe I am. It's possible.

    It happens dude. Just go back and figure out what you can improe on and do better next time. Wins and losses aren't as important as the experience.

    Try being a judge then you too will have people claiming you robbed them.

    Kolya's right, results mean little in the ams, especially at the start of your career. Get robbed after doing 10 x 3's then you've got a right to complain.

    Learn as much as you can, if you know in your heart of hearts you won then who are they to say you didn't! **** em.

    I've got a fight on video at home where I got hit three times in the first, once in the second and zero times in the third. It was in the novice championships and you can see bits of it on my video on the members video thread. The computer wasn't working that evening so they manually scored, and I only won a majority. I got hit four times in the fight, leathered the lad and one judge thought I lost. I just laughed. **** them the pricks. Stay focused.

    Start KO'ing them and you'd not have to worry about being 'robbed' anymore

    you'll end up on the good end of a bad decision anyway, if you're honest.
    i think i got about 2 or 3 that i didn't deserve and lost about the same that i knew i won.
    i got one on our own club show and my trainer said i was lucky,although my opponent wasn't bothered.

    I thought Kristian Laight had beaten me but when I watched it back on video, i'd won clearly. Lot depends on how you feel at the conclusion.

    I've never felt I was on the good end of a bad decision when I boxed unfortunatly. There were times I felt I was robbed, but to be honest, while i landed more punches I didn't push forward enough and dominate, and it was his home show. You have to put more effort in to win at his club, so I only had myself to blame.

    That's a mature analysis, which will only make you better.
