    So which ones were not robberies? which ones were not in the US? Many of the German ones involve no German boxer too, that's not the point.

    didn't see Huck vs Afolobi 2 but heard it was ok. Huck vs Arslan will go on. Helenius vs Chisora not in Germany, not seen or heard about Pianeta vs. Bota, if that was a robbery then Wlad will murder that guy litterally.

    The HW Prize fighter stoppage against Timo Hoffman was daylight robbery.

    Clearly he did not like the Germans fighting in England, what a complete embarrassment that was for Boxing in Britain.

    The biggest problem in the UK is appalling stoppages. Generally I'd say our judging is ok with a few exceptions.

    America has biased referees (Khan-Peterson, Hatton-Mayweather, Reid-Lacy spring to mind), and frequent robberies so I'd say they're the worst, closely followed by Germany.

    • In what world was Huck-Afolabi 2 a robbery ?
    • If you think Huck-Arslan was the biggest robbery in boxing history then you need to watch more boxing. I'm not saying it's not debattable.
    • Helenius-Chisora was in Finland

    => It's ok to hate but at least check your facts before hating.

    Happened in Finland to be exactly

    As a german I have to admit that someday I even stopped counting because there were so many controversial fights and embarrasing results here in germany. But saying that germany is worse than america, australia or uk? :huh No. Every promoter is genuinely interested in protecting his capital investments, so it's easily imaginable that there are at least some smart fellows who would do a lot of things to keep the honey flowing...

    Germany
     
  10. Even though Helenius fought in Finnland, is Sauerland his promoter and if they would fight in Japan, it would be a German robbery.
