    I'll start with the most fresh in mind, Smith Ryder, I gave to Ryder by 3 rounds being generous.
    Compiling a poll so throw any in the mix

    Not one of the worst decisions this year, but the wrong gal won.

    This year we didn't see a really high profile fight going the wrong way, like Golovkin vs Alvarez 1, Pac vs Bradley 1 and Kovalev vs Ward 1.

    My memory is terrible but Smith vs Ryder will stay with me for a long time, horrible decision.

    Bad choice agree. But at least he found he has the power to hurt Ruiz

    This isnt from this year but worst decision off all time (arguably) is Whitaker's draw with Chavez. Travesty. After round 4, it was all Pernell. Really awful decision, one Sweet Pea had taken from him.

    Don't think that's the all time worst, because we've seen complete shutouts from one side going the other way. There was a FNF fight a number of years back that was just straight up unheard of. And high profile we had Lara vs Williams, in which Williams maybe won 3 rounds, and got the nod from the judges on nationality.

    Reid Ottke remains the worst decision I've seen after prob the worst officiating I'm ever likely to ever see.
