    Decent list except DLH vs Trinidad, Whitaker vs JLR and Whitaker vs Chavez don't belong

      Disagree with many/most of them.

      Abril vs Rios.
      Cloud vs Campillo
      Robin Reid vs Sven Ottke
      Malignaggi vs Juan Diaz 1 (especially seeing one judge gave it 118-110 Diaz when it was probably 118-110 Malignaggi)

      Was all worse & they're just a few from recent times.

      Hell I'd say Marquez vs Pac 3 was worse than most of them.

        I think they do.

        I probably could add a few to the list(Byrd-Oquendo for example), but it is a pretty good list. It is based on significance of the fight in question, where there are tons of smaller bouts and clubs shows that might have been equal robberies, the list sticks to bouts where there was more at stake.

          The only robbery out of those was Cloud vs Campillo

          Reid vs Ottke, Malinaggi vs Diaz and Pacquiao vs Marquez 3 were all close fights. Abril vs Rios was awful, neither fighter deserved to win.

            When I saw Ramirez-Whitaker I on live TV, I thought it was the worst decision I've ever seen. I still do.

              I scored the fight for Castillo but I didn't think the Mayweather loss was a robbery, just a little unfair.

              Bradley vs Pacquiao at 2.

                Its hard to win a fight going backwards 100% of the time if you can't hurt your opponent. That strategy is almost always going to lead to close decision

                  Ali - Young could get a mention.

                    It's even harder to win a fight when you are being outlanded 10-1 and you never come close to hurting your opponent. Backwards or forwards, effective punching is always the bottom line.
