    I agree with this one. That fight was a blatant robbery.

    Only problem is Santa Cruz didn't do himself any favors getting knocked out by Pitalua.

    Then people proceeded to act like Pitalua was a bum when Valero waylaid him.


    The Santa Cruz fight against Casamayor was an awful robbery.

    I can't think of a fight that compares to that in the last ten years.

    (I was pissed at a couple of draws in this time period... I will say)
    I can't think of any in the last 10 years to compare to that either. Maybe somebody else will mention something.

    I also laughed the way people thought Pitula as a bum. But, I also was impressed the way Valero got him out of there in just 2 rounds. People who over look that win don't understand how durable Pitula was...

      I can't really think but I might have to go with Marquez-Pacquiao II... I think 90% of press row scored it for Marquez

        I would say another bad robbery was Martinez-Cintron. It was scored a draw. But, what made this fight such a travesty. Was that Martinez was robbed twice in the same fight. He was robbed from KO victory and robbed from a decision victory.

          I think some of you guys confuse close fights with robberies.

            Yeah, if they are going down that road, I thought Barrera beat Morales in their first fight.

            But robberies.

            Most recent besides that one was the Funeka-Guzman fight draw.

            I had money on Funeka and he was at +200, and it was a frickin draw.

              I had Hopkins beating Taylor but it was not a robbery. It was a close fight.

              Yea Funeka-Guzman was a horrible decision...

                I know this probably isn't the biggest robbery of the past decade, but Agbeko-Sidorenko really pisses me off when I think about it.

                    Guzman-Funeka I
                    Martinez-Williams
                    Malignaggi-Diaz I
                    Casamayor-Santa Cruz
                    Martinez-Cintron


                    Out of all those the very worst has to go between Casamayor-SantaCruz and Martinez-Cintron

                      Martinez-Williams was very close and could have went either way. Martinez-Cintron on the other hand was ridiculous.

                      I'd probably choose out of Casamayor-Cruz and De La Hoya-Sturm. A lot of people complain about DLH-Whittaker and Quartey being robberies, but I don't see it. Especially the Sweat Pea fight. He did make DLH miss a lot, but activity won the fight.
