Robberies?

[Scott9945]

I scored it 8-4 to Marquez.

Put that into context with my scores of 114-113 to Pacquiao in the first fight and a draw in the second.

I thought it was closer than Lara-Williams, Helenius-Chisora, and Sturm-Macklin should have been. Lara gave Williams a beating and Chisora won nine rounds minimum.

I notice a lot of people using the expression "close fight"

It doesn't matter how close a fight was if the outcome was predetermined.
That's what a robbery is........

I think we are delving into the world of conspiracy theory here.

The Whitaker-Chavez fight is perhaps the only robbery on the list. I can't say this for certain, though, as there are a few fights I haven't seen.

And I feel the same way as the poster who said he is dumbfounded that so many think Hagler was robbed against Leonard.

I don't mind if anyone scored it for Leonard, hence I wouldn't call it a robbery. Gotta be like 4 points the other way to be considered a Robbery.

Now Hagler vs Antufermo I was a robbery.

[TBear]

I am suprised Spinks-Holmes I is in the orig list but not Spinks-Holmes II.

[White_Knight]

Just watched the Sturm-De La Hoya fight. That may have been the biggest robbery I've ever seen.

I will never understand the controversy surrounding Hopkins vs. Calzaghe.
It frequently enter these discussions but i just don't see how it's close to controversial let alone a robbery.

Pure speculation.

A robbery is when a fighter who has clearly won isn't awarded the decision.

Especially since everyone who scored it for Hopkins seemed to have it 114-113.

I thought Sturm-Macklin was closer than Pacquaio-Marquez.

I felt Macklin did win the fight though.

how am i speculatin??

A robbery is where one fighter had no way of winning without a ko.
I think you misunderstand what I'm saying.

Do you really believe marquez was gonna get given that fight without a ko?
What about chisora??
Matthysse is another guy who gets screwed over a lot......

Conspiracy theory?? You are either delusional or naive......
Boxing is dirty as **** it always has been, where you been on the moon???
On a side note I also had leonard beating hagler

Bottom line is promotors pay the ref and judges wages, if that ain't a conflict of intrest i don't know what is.....
