Biggest robberies in boxing

[KnockoutTheFat]

Frazier was done by 1976.

Creed would've given him the sparring partner treatment like he did to that sparring partner in part 2.

Well if that's the case then Creed should've fought him anyway to use him as a tune-up for Balboa. Therefore, he would've won the wide UD instead of going for the KO in the 15th round.

I think the judges just gave it to Creed so they can get a super fight with Joe Frazier. Too bad that didn't work...

great point!!!!! Joe even told rocky to take it easy on creed. Joe was out there ****ing promoting their fight. they took balboa for a freakin tune up

I couldn't find a link on youtube, so here's an article about. Watching this fight just pisses me off. The sport can really suck sometimes.

Was it like Reid vs Ottke? I've never heard of either boxer, to be honest.

Apollo proceeds to lose his undefeated record in the re-match... what a joke of a champion.

On a side note boxing_prospect, how did you score the Dixon-Balboa fight? I know I ain't the only one who had Balboa ahead clearly by 3 points.

RJJ vs. Park Si Hun in the 88 Olympics...

Ricky hatton vs mayweather

[Mr. Philadel]

Creed was done at the end of the fight.

Richard Steele would've stopped it.

Philly fighters always getting the raw end of the deal.

Real Talk my dude!

it was a classic fight between a boxer and a legendary brawler. rock obviously had rust in the beginning, but he shook it off as the fight progressed and went back to his old Phily ways....bashing the ****er's brain out. because of the knockdowns (one i though was a slip) i had balboa up by 2 points. i tell ya dixon was lucky the fight wasnt 12 rounds, that's where the experience would have really shown, balboa is an old school 15 round fighter. dixon is a front runner. had there been one more round i reckon rocky would have knocked that overated bum out

and i hate when people use the excuse that balboa got lucky because dixon hurt his hand. that's baloney with dijon mustard. rocky was 60 years old and he still schooled that ass!!!

Name some of the biggest screwjobs in boxing history...

The biggest robbery in my opinion is when Balboa was robbed against the overrated Dixon. I had him up by 3 points on my scorecard.

Tye Fields' first round KO against some bum fighter. He did it intentionally to make the record of first round Kayos trilogy. I'm serious, it was a self robbery...

It's no secret that Dixon retired shortly after this fight. All sanctioning bodies were going to put Rocky in their top 15; the public was clamoring for a re-match, this time for the undisputed HW title. Dixon ducked him faster then the speed of lightning on that one.

And perhaps the biggest robbery call is in Kadyo's statement.
