Ottke Vs Reid is the worst robbery ever.
I scored it 118-112 to Reid and the three judges scored it 117-112/115-113/115-113 all for Ottke./
Reid got a warning for punching Ottke to hard in the face..... -
Biggest robbery in the history of Boxing is Mexican Joe Rivers Vs. Ad Wolgast.
The two great fighters, Ad Wolgast and Mexican Joe Rivers who put up this most unusual fight have been forgotten by many boxing people, but the fight between them probably never will. Wolgast was the reigning lighweight champion of the time and Rivers challenged him for the title. The fight went to the thirteenth round, where the fighters threw simultaneous punches. Rivers landed straight on Wolgast’s chin, while the champion fired a clear low blow. The result was like the ending scheme from the Rocky II movie where the referee, in this fight Jackie Welsh, started to count on both of the fighters. However, when he reached the count of four, he duck down and literally picked Wolgast up from the canvas and held him up, while with his other hand he continued to count Rivers out! The round ended as the count was still going (at those days the bell saved the fighter in any round) but Welsh nevertheless completed the count, shouted to the officials that Wolgast won by knockout and then stormed out of the ring. There are still discussion whether or not Welsh was bribed that night. His actions definitely support the opinion that he was, but it also might have been a case of him losing his head. Welsh was known as an honest man, and it might be he just didn’t see the low blow and thusly he gave the advantage of the situation for the champion. Whatever the truth is here, this fight has a cemented place among the most peculiar of the history.Comment

Well Floyds face said it all when he got the decision over Castillo in the first fight.
That win made PBF what he is today. He thinks all he has to do is not get hit in a fight and he will win. Floyd didnt throw any punches against Castillo thats for sure.Comment
