    Name a decision that changed fighters whole career for the worse. Not Taylor Chavez style where ref called the fight, but a more of a Sturm v ODLH type of bout. I really like Sturm's technical style, although i think he can sometimes coast too much, but think his career took a HUGE turn after the Oscar fight. Can we think of anymore fighters who got screwed and career's never got back on track?

    Norton/Young. Maybe not a flat-out "robbery" but many felt Young deserved it. I'm trying to be as non-biased as possible because I love Young lol. It sucks, he goes from having a great fight with Norton to losing to Ossie Ocassio twice.

    Valuev getting robbed by Haye, thus ending any real chance Valuev had of massive pay days or semblance of a career in the future.

    Meanwhile, Haye somehow managed to convince everyone that, while fight fans the world over were screaming "bull****" after the decision, that somehow he really won that stinker of a fight. The more time that passes, the more everyone accepts it as common knowledge when in fact, it was total bull****.

    It's not the biggest one, but it was the biggest robbery at the time here in Québec. Lucas vs. Beyer. It was like a collective let down and after that Lucas wanted a world title as soon as possible and he decide to face Kessler without being that ready and he lost so bad that he retired (also because of his daughter health problem), but I think that this great warrior got touch deeply by the robberies he faced with Beyer.
