Biggest Robbery's In Boxing History

[MaFu MoFo]

How about Marvelous Hagler's Last Fight??? That actually took away my interest in boxing for a decade...


It's true De La Hoya decided to lose agaisnt Tito. It was his fight to win. It was not a Contender. TiTo was another champion. You fight for 12 rounds, no less. Everyone knows Don King was behind it, round per round, ODLH was winning. But last 4 rounds created the necessary impact to justify the robbery.

Collazo vs. Hatton = Big Assault on the First Degree. And still Collazo was over-confident. Hatton did not win the fight. Collazo lost it, just like ODLH.

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

louis walcott 1
henry armstrong vs ceferino garcia
maybe leonard hagler[thats a ruff one for me,and it does say leonard won on the record]

Can somebody here give me a synopsis of the Ottke-Reid fight? And how did the ref justify deducting points in this fight?

i cant remember to be honest all i can remember is the referee penalisng Reid for everything that Ottke was guilty of i was going crazy i could'nt believe he was getting on Reids case for what Ottke was doing

about the Reid Ottke fight

Perhaps the worst injustice suffered by an Ottke opponent came in 2003 when UK-based Robin Reid was brought in under the perception of a name opponent on the slide. What Team Ottke didn't anticipate was a resurrected Reid looking to turn back the clock. What Reid didn't anticipate was fighting more than Ottke in the ring once the opening bell rang.

In one of the worst cases of officiating in recent history, Reid was docked a point in the sixth round and warned throughout the bout for the heinous crime of punching his opponent. A knockdown late in the bout was ignored, as was Reid's dominance over the course of twelve rounds by all three judges, neutral on paper (from Switzerland, Italy and United States) but just not on the kind that noted their ridiculous scorecards, all in favor of Ottke. The bout was investigated by the IBF, at the cost of $10,000 by Jess Harding, Reid's promoter, though Reid never received justice, or a rematch

I gotta see that Reid-Ottke fight, if anyone has it please upload. Robberies I could think of are Lewis-Holyfield I, Whitaker-Chavez. Sweet Pea had that ****, I was 8 when that fight happened and still remember asking how the hell did Chavez win. Hagler-Leonard, I think Hagler won but I don't know if its the biggest robbery ever.

Whitaker vs. Chavez
Whitaker vs. De la Hoya
Morales vs. Guty Espadas

[Jim Jeffries]

Mayweather/CastilloI, not so much just the win, but the 116-111, 115-111, 115-111 scores that the judges had. Plus Holyfield/LewisI.

The Lewis/Holyfield and Whitaker/Chavez fights ended up as draws. The Robin Reid a clear robbery that far exceeds the controversies of the other two fights I mentioned. Had this happened in the US and Robin Reid was popular, the media would have been all over this.
