    Mine when I opened this thread :yep

    Just kidding man, with Williams Lara and Strum Macklin still sticking out in my head its hard to see any worse then that. But hey this is boxing i'm sure there will be a worse one by the end of the year.

    How long have you got?

    Williams fight was an absolute Joke.

    Macklin loses by 4 rounds when Sturm only fights for about 5 rounds.

    Alexander the great gets more gifts than the Beckham kids

    It just goes on and on.

    A few weeks back and I would have said Lucas Matthyses loss to Alexander but the Paul Williams fight was just shameful.

    1. Paul Williams MD Esrindsy Lara
    2. Devon Alexander SD Lucas Mathysse
    3. Felix Sturm UD Mathew Macklin
    4. Amir Khan TD Paul Mcloskey
    5. Marcos Maidanna MD Erik Morales

    How do you have point 4?

    McCloskey didnt throw a punch in the entire fight.

    Khan-McCloskey?! Maidana-Morales was close and could've gone either way

    It was the stoppage I had a problem with, he wasnt badly cut. Khan could have stopped him later on in the fight

    I'm guessing you believe Chavez Jr and Groves clearly won? :)
    I had Zbik losing too, btw... but DeGale wide

    Groves vs degale had a lot of close rounds that could have gone either way as well, im happy groves won though.

    I thought Matthyse was pretty much robbed against Alexander...but at least the fight was close. Lara virtually put on a masterclass and was completely and utterly violated. That theft was on the level of a Ring-wraith touching you in your sleep and stealing your soul and innocence.

    I don't think Chavez-Zbik or Groves-deGale were as bad as the other three. Two close fights with Chavez-Zbik being particularly subjective.

    Lara-Williams was the worst. I really can't see how an objective, sane person could have Williams winning.

    Hopefully we won't see a worse decision for a long time.

    Williams-Lara, i scored it 10-2 for Lara. That was the worst fooking scoring ever!

    Honorable mention: Matthyesse-Judah-Alexander, both fights were close so I'm not outraged by the decision, but Matthysesse won both fights...

    Alexander - Matthyse was as bad as the Williams - Lara decision IMO.

    Both were blatant robberies of the highest order. There is no argument for either fight, both were disgusting and shocking decisions.
