    What were they????

    I think the worst was DE LA HOYA-TRINIDAD, which could easily have had a 117-111 score for DLH.
    De La Hoya-Mayweather and De La Hoya-Mosley II were also probably wrong. Poor DLH, his place in history will never match his true abilities because of this.

    Mayweather-Castillo I (a clear win for Castillo)
    De La Hoya-Sturm
    Jones-Tarver I
    Leonard-Hagler
    Chavez-Whitaker
    Holyfield-Lewis I
    and, although I never seen it, I read that Jose Luis Ramirez v Pernell Whitaker was the worst ever. Anyone saw that one?

    Which others???:patsch :happy

    Chavez v Whittaker.

    Remember the judge winking at Chavez before the fight?

    Hagler v Leonard? Debatable decision, but worst of all time? That's wack.
    Joe Louis v Walcott I

    :lol: :roll: at some of this crap listed?

    Jones-Tarver I? Please? Leonard-Hagler? That was a close fight that could've gone either way. Same with Mayweather-Castillo I. Castillo got off to a very slow start, even slower than Hagler versus Leonard. DLH-Trinidad? Trinidad got lucky, but the decision wasn't THAT bad.

    Poor De La Hoya? He's had two controversial decisions go against him (save me the alleged Mayweather controversy) and three go his way.

    Alfredo Escalera-Tyrone Everett was a disgrace. Everett got jobbed in his hometown. He got so depressed he started going out with cross dressers. Escalera won 4 of the 15 rounds on my card.

    Nelson-Fenech I was a joke. I gave Nelson 3 rounds, just like I gave Evander 3 rounds in the first Lewis fight.

    Burton-Augustus and Casamayor-Santa Cruz were very bad decisions.

    But the worst ROBBERY ever was Juan Coggi-Eder Gonzalez I.

    Sugar Ray Leonard vs Marvin Hagler :patsch

    Sugar Ray Leonard has a case for winning the fight just as Hagler did, don't make it out to be a robbery.

    Chavez vs Whitaker gets my vote. Everybody knows who won that fight.

    Holyfield-Lewis I was a worse "draw" than Whitaker-Chavez.

    Why is it whenever this subject comes up, people list very close fights that could've gone either way?

    This thread is called "The Worst Decisions in History" not "Cry Oscar De La Hoya A River Based On Points Losses".

    He gave away the Trinidad fight the final three rounds. That's a fact. He should have won it anyway, but he didn't. It was his choice not to box like a champion.

    As for the Mosley fight, it was a debatable decision, but far from a "bad" decision yet. Shane Mosley, like Trinidad, swept the final four rounds on my card, thus, in a close fight, ended up with a decision. Nobody complained (and this was in Vegas, De La Hoya's turf).

    The Mayweather-De La hoya fight should not even be mentioned. Seriously - he lost. It was close, but come on, no way he would end up with a points victory there (and that TOO was in Vegas!).
