I agree the scores were ridiculous. But the outcome overall wasn't the biggest robbery by a long shot. It was a really close fight could have gone either way...maybe Martinez deserved the decision. But if you just go by the outcome it wasn't some big robbery. I just hope even if Martinez loses tonight he still gets good fights. Because he is a good fighter and deserves better than he has gotten. Maybe he will rematch Cintron when or if Williams beats him. Cause if Williams win obviously Kelly will fight Paul.
I would say another bad robbery was Martinez-Cintron. It was scored a draw. But, what made this fight such a travesty. Was that Martinez was robbed twice in the same fight. He was robbed from KO victory and robbed from a decision victory.
Oh YEah I forgot about the Martinez/Cintron fight yeah that was another robbery b/c of the ref and the judges. It was mainly the fault of the Ref failing to call the punch a Knockdown and taking a point.
I am not saying these were the biggest robberies but i remember watching them ad i was like WTF thats insaneee !! both arent judges robberies but still HUGEEE ROBBERIES
1. was Andrade vs Bute 1 say whatever you want but Bute was OUT andrade should have won that one by KO.
and the other robberie that made me mad when i watched it was Humberto Soto vs Francisco lorenzo 1. He was DQ by joe cortez it was plain stupid.
I know those arent judges robberies but still BIG BIG robberies IMO
I agree with this one. That fight was a blatant robbery.
Only problem is Santa Cruz didn't do himself any favors getting knocked out by Pitalua.
Then people proceeded to act like Pitalua was a bum when Valero waylaid him.
The Santa Cruz fight against Casamayor was an awful robbery.
I can't think of a fight that compares to that in the last ten years.
(I was pissed at a couple of draws in this time period... I will say)
yeah that Santa Cruz fight takes the cake, that was just plain dirty.

Some of the fights people are saying are stupid. Straight up stupid. A close fight means it's a close fight you idiots.
A robbery is where one guy could not have won the fight no matter what happened. He didn't win close to even half the rounds. That's a robbery.
Winning 7 of 5 rounds and losing (in your opinion) is not a robbery. Losing nine or more rounds and winning is a robbery. Winning ten rounds and losing still is a robbery.....
Knocking the guy out and the ref counting him out and stopping the fight, then after some time recalling it, then that same guy loses nearly every round along with two knockdowns and still gets the draw is a robbery! Imagine if something like that happened to Pacquiao? He won nearly all rounds against Marquez, knocked him out once and down twice and still didn't win.....Imagine that then you'll understand what a robbery is!
A really close fight going to one guy or the other isnt a robbery. I was pulling for Sergio but he did run out of gas the last few rounds.
Chris John did beat Marquez IMO.....
Lucas - Beyer was by far the biggest robbery I've seen in the last ten years, and its the biggest robbery in Quebec boxing history. That fight was a total joke
Maidana vs. Kotelnik was clearly a robbery and Maidana still deserves to be undefeated. That's not the biggest robbery of the past ten years but tarnishing a fighters unbeaten record is abhorrent.
Bute v Andrade 1.
Andrade pummeled Bute in that last round, deserved a TKO as Bute was all over the place and defenceless, it should have been stopped......but then when Andrade gets a legit KO the ref doesn't even start counting and Bute gets like a 15 count which takes it the end of the fight, then wins a decision.
casamayor/santa cruz
anyone else remember demetrius hopkins/steve forbes?
dlh/sturm deserves some mention
That was bulls**t. Not only did Forbes outland him, but he clearly won 7 rounds. That decision really pissed me off.
