    Gonzalez vs Rungvisai 1, Murata vs N'Jikam 1, Pacquiao vs Horn, Golovkin vs Canelo, Browne vs Kaladjdzic, Danny Garcia vs Herrera, Bradley vs Pacquiao, Bradley vs Chaves, JCC jr vs Vera 1, Lara vs Williams,

    Ward vs Kovalev 1 was actually close enough not to be a total robbery. 2 ending with the lowblows and a refs decision might not qualify since it was more a mistake than a robbery by judges. Lara vs Canelo was close enough not to be a robbery, in spite of the shameful scoring.

    Kovalev vs Ward. There is no ****ing way a champion should lose his belts that way.

    Loma vs Salido. The judges should have taken into account ALL those low blows and other bull**** tactics Saleazo did and awarded the victory to the guy who fought cleanly AND made weight.

    And of course GGG vs Canelo. Yes Gennady kept his belts with the draw but it should have been a win.

    Yes that's the worst on account of what you said,apparently some at ringside were expecting a draw just so they could stuff SK and not give Ward a loss but they went one further

    A bit outside the 5 year window but Lebedev/Huck was a terrible decision.

    Calling this fight a robbery is laughable. A draw inherently isn't a robbery since no one lost anything. G did not in any way shape or form convincingly beat Alvarez. He hardly landed a significant punch on him the entire fight. Canelo was rolling with or blocking most of what Gennady had to offer. To argue that someone deserved to win, he has to land more impactful and more significant punches, especially when he's known as a power puncher / knockout artist.

    Canelo was the one who landed the more earth shattering impactful punches round after round. If anyone deserved to win it was Canelo based on him landing more clean effective impactful punches. But you don't see me screaming robbery because unlike you, I can plainly recognize it was a close competitive fight that could be argued for either fighter depending on what you value when scoring a boxing match.

    GGG did. He lost his 100% winning record.

    Canelo had lost previously so his 100% winning record was already history.
