alright, "newbies to the sport of boxing", instead of "newbies to the forums on boxing scene"
regardless, some of those fights have no business being in the "biggest" robberies in the history of the sport when people still evenly argue who won the fight.
I used biggest in the sense that those fights were the most well known for showcasing boxing stars, and was well talked about. Superfights if you will.
If John Duddy beat Howard Eastman with a controvercial decision in a lopsided fight against him I wouldn't call that "Big".
Youre basing biggest on severity of the injustice. I'm judging it on scale.
u newbies need some help with your fictional robberies. some of these you named were very close, tough-to-judge fights that are not robberies, let alone being close to the worst in history.
here are some of the worst robberies in boxing history:
alfredo escalera-tyrone everett
evander holyfield-lennox lewis 1
juan coggi-eder gonzalez 1
ad wolgast-mexican joe rivers
I very much doubt you qualify to label someone a newbie if you've only been a member since september.
A mention of the SRL Hagler fight in this thread was never going to be popular. SRL was never going to trade or box at close range for long spells, and because of that, it could be percieved that he won most of the fight running.
Also, he title of the thread was "Biggest Robbery's" and not "Worst".
