Most Controversial Decisions Ever...

  1. Did you ever see the fight?? the Ref called halt after Holy's punch, was already on his opponents jaw, even Kevin Berry of New Zealand told Holy that he was robbed, and should have got the Gold, Holy scored a clean KO.

    Hagler v Antuofermo 1 - mainly because I just watched it last night, Hagler couldn't finish him but a DRAW, that was bull****.

    yep I saw it - and I would have called it differently - but it is defendable - especially in the amateurs, where faul play is much less tolerated.

    But no mater how you see the Holyfield DQ I can't see how that is worse than RJJ's robbery. RJJ totally outboxed his opponent in every round - the Korean got less than 5 punches in on him - and still got the decision!!!

    i remember a fight on the Tyson v Mcneeley undercard between Lamar Murphy and Miguel Angel Gonzales.. Gonz was the fave but was shockingly turned over by Murphy , only the judges saw it horribly differently.. In favour of the Mexican.. This looked very political to me because they were setting up a fight between chavez and M.A.G.. and a Murphy win would hae wrecked it.. A little like what happened with Oscar and Sturm for a Hopkins fight.. Desperately nasty scoring..

    Marion Wilson/Ray Mercer.

    Wilson dominates him the entire fight, and of course, gets a draw.
