Boxing......Worst robbery of All Time

[algarve addick]

My money would have to be on either:
a/Lewis v Holyfield I;Given as a draw when Lennox clearly won at least 8 rounds. A real shocker.
b/Henry Wharton v Fidel Smith; Wharton handed an outrageous decision when Smith was the victor in the eyes of all who witnessed, with the exception of the judges and, no doubt, Wharton's promoter Frank Warren.

In the amateurs Roy Jones in the 1988 Light Middleweight Final. In the pros Michael Brodie against Willie Jorrin - the only time I can remember where a 'home town' decision went against the home fighter!

p.s. I know Frank Warren gets blamed for a lot but I think Wharton may still have been with Mickey Duff when he fought Smith.

Joe Bugner's defeat of Henry Cooper.

[Hawkins]

Victor Polo vs Scott Harrison is one that comes to mind.

Manuel Medina vs Johnny Tapia

Johnny Nelson vs just about anybody, that guy has had more than a few very generous decisions.

Juan Landetta vs koji Kameda

Barerra vs Junior Jones

Colin Jones v Milton McCrory.......Jones was fucking robbed that night.
It still winds me up

17-03-90 - Meldrick Taylor v Julio Cesar Chavez
WBC & IBF Light Welterweight Title Fight

With Taylor leading 107-102, 108-101, 104-105 going into the 12th and final Round, Chavez needed a miracle to keep his unbeaten record intact.

Luckilly, Referee Richard Steele was on hand to stop the fight with just 2 seconds remaining in the fight. A decision that provded Don King's reach to be far greater than that of any fighter.

Barrera v Jones?????
Jones beat him fair and square......TWICE!

[Dopey]

"Joe Bugner's defeat of Henry Cooper."

I would say that or the first Eubank - Watson fight
