    Not even specifically talking about judging decisions. Could be talking about anything here.... Fighters signing with a certain promoter, Fighters taking a fight to early, A fight being scheduled at a certain venue.... etc

    I'll start... in no order.

    1. Ward signing to roc nation.
    2. Khan begging for floyd
    3. TB re-signing with top rank for as long as he did
    4. JCC JR being as lazy as he is.
    5. Floyd coming back if he decides too lol.

    1. Arum not making Gamboa vs. Lopez when it mattered. It was one of the most looked forward fights at one time
    2. Gamboa deciding not to fight Rios
    3. Gamboa signing with 50 cent
    4. Gamboa not been active
    5. Gamboa never learning to keep his hands up. His undoing vs. Crawford

    Yes, I'm very dissapointed in Gamboa.

    when speaking in a boxing forum and using the word 'decisions', one would assume you meant judges decisions. That's where I thought this thread was going.

    on the top off my head

    Chavez Jr moving up to 175 and fighting a top 5 guy.
    Adrien Broner agreeing to fight Shawn Porter.

    Off the top of my head;

    1) Floyd v Pac being 5 years to late.

    2) Brook v Khan not happening - I'm British so would love to see this fight.

    3) Similar to the above point - the top welterweights not fighting each other as they don't want to risk a loss and lose a potential fight with Floyd/Pac.

    4) GGG not getting a top opponent.

    5) Canelo's tactics Vs Floyd.

    1. Mikey not fighting Gamboa and worrying excessively about money.

    2. Pacquiao/Mayweather not happening when it should've.

    3. Khan not fighting Alexander and waiting around for Mayweather.

    4. Rigondeaux's entire professional career. He should've canned Caribe and stayed with Top Rank. He's doing worse since leaving.

    5. De la Hoya being an addict instead of watching his business, which led to the rise of Gaymon.

    These are in no order.

    Andre "Bad decision" Ward tops this for me

    Ward not fighting Bute to unify the super middleweight titles and allowing his greatest rival Froch to resurrect his career.

    Ward choosing to waste years trying to get out of his contract with Goosen, in the belief he could make more money. Then signs for Roc Nation and makes same purse with them as he did for his last fight with Goosen while fighting on BET which was a network I hadn't even heard of before. He also loses his WBC belt in the process giving fighters more options rather than facing him for a title.

    Turns down Froch rematch because he thinks he can sell out Wembley. Had the fight been made he would have made more than double than he has ever made before, perhaps triple depending upon the split. If Kessler could make almost $4 million in a rematch with Froch in an arena with less than half the capacity of The City ground imagine what he could have made against Froch. He would have also unified the titles but instead allowed the IBF belt to slip his grasp and give fighters at the weight other options rather than fighting him for a title. Along with losing the WBC belt, it makes Ward a fight nobody needs.

    Adrien Broner turning down $40 million over 5 years from Roc Nation, he then loses to Porter. Rumours now of cocaine use, his career is likely going to free fall and the money will soon dry up, no chance he ever makes close to $40 million now.

    Khan not fighting Alexander. He's chased Mayweather for so long and by not fighting and beating Alexander who he did easily beat a year later he allowed a fighter he and Alexander had beaten not one but 2 shots at Mayweather.
