    Remember Chez vs Holyfield... After the fight Bobby bitched about evander having a chemical on his gloves. Bobby's face was all red after two rounds, and he didn't get hit that much. They made him out to be a little whiney ***** after the fight. I never did hear anything about that after the fight.

          1. The first Holyfield-Lewis fight
          2. Tito- DLH (DLH should not have ran from rd 8 on)

            Juan Coggi/Eder Gonzalez I

            If you've seen it, you saw the most blatantly corrupt officiating ever seen in a boxing ring.

              Hamed vs Barrera

              Hamed Was Robbed
              Barrera was allowed to hit and block all of hameds punches

              sincerely,
              Naseem Hamed

                And why Jack Kearns has staked on a knockout in the first round? Why he was so is confident a victory already in the first round?
                Because Jack Dempsey scored the third most first-round knockouts of any fighter. Kearns nearly won that bet, too. There was a string between the knocker and the bell, and so the sound was muffled when it was was rung to begin the round. The clock had been running for about ten seconds when the principles were informed that the fight had begun. If there hadn't been a problem with the bell, Jess Willard would have been counted out.

                    I don't know about the most scandelous... A noteworthy mention is the Benn-McClellan fight. I thought Benn was allowed to punch to the back of the head way too often.

                      Here, I found this great article on the Dempsey/Willard controversy. The article was written by a member of the International Boxing Research Organization, with help from from other members. It should answer all your questions.
