    Holyfield-Lewis I, Leonard-Hearns II, then Benn-Eubank II (this actually wasn't a bad decision).

    Some worthy ones already mentioned, so, not the worst draw of all time, but one bout that sticks in my mind is the Joe Frazier vs Floyd Cummings fight. Jumbo was robbed that night. It was Joe's name that got him a undeserved draw.

    That were some great ones named here and I do think Holyfield-Lewis and Foster-Ahumada are the standout ripoffs, but I do always think of Dokes - Weaver II when thinking of a bad call. I do think it was close and not in the league of the 2 aforementioned ripoffs, but still, I always thought Weaver deserved the decision that night.

    Shades of Coggi-Gonzalez 1, the most outrageous robbery ever.

    And then Cintron doing a celebration at the end, shaking his ass, when the draw was announced. Embarrassing.

    Lewis-Holyfield 1 was definitely the worst IMO in terms of how one-sided it was. I had Hearns up 114-112. I think I also had Benn up 2 points.

    Lewis on the other hand, I think won 9 or 10 rounds. He completely kicked Holyfield's ass in the 5th, hurting him with a left hook to the body and a right uppercut to the head, had Holyfield against the ropes.

    I take Compubox with a grain of salt, but it had Lewis outlanding Holyfield 43-11 in round 5, which included arguably the most damaging blows of the fight when Evander was reeling against the ropes.

    Eugenia Williams gave Holyfield round 5 and also the fight.

    Marquez - Pacman III wasn't a draw, it was awarded to Pacman, in spite of Marquez winning pretty much every single round.
