Do you agree with my definition of a robbery?

[Spray_resistant]

I can define a robbery in a boxing ring only as; 1 fighter decisively and without debate winning no less than 8 rounds or in the case of KDs in a fight with less than 8 rounds clearly won, most fans agreeing said fighter should be ahead on the cards by no less than 4 points.....if these things happen and the judges do not rule in favor of this fighter the term robbery is apt.

If these occurrences do not take place in a fight(8+ rounds won or 4+ points ahead) and in that case that most think one fighter won 7 of 12 rounds for example and he does not get the decision win, this is questionable scoring in a competitive fight but not a robbery.

Agree or disagree?

Good post. "Robberies" are usually disagreements. Especially split decisions. I think alot of people scream robbery because they have a habit of watching their fighter the entire fight. It's hard to look at a fight without bias when your guy is fighting.

If most of the rounds looked like that then yes....that is a robbery but I would have to see the whole fight to say not just a 2.5 min clip.

Agree or disagree?

Agreed. Can't be robbery if it's legitimately close.

Big disagree for both of your statements.
Anything under someone's decision is a robbery!

If there is an option called knockout, you must do so instead
of someone making decision for you.

otherwise, stay with "Dancing with stars "

Boxing is very subjective....so who can say what someones decision should be in a close fight which is you not winning at least 8 rounds or deserving to be up more than 4 points due to KD's?

Boxing is not subjective sports.
As I said, any decision coming from someone else is robbery...that include
the judge in the supreme court.
How many times you've seen someone ahead and still lose?
Your ahead of points means nothing my friend.

So you are saying every round in every fight always has a clear winner that everyone should agree won that particular round? if not, then it is open to subjective opinion. Not all fights can be won by Ko/Tko, its sport based around points but the stoppage is one of the few ways around that aspect.
