Was it Dempsey - Tunney II
or hagler-leonard
or trinidad-dlh
sturm-dlh
augustus-burton

How is Tito vs. DLH, and Hagler vs. Leonard both a robbery? Makes no sense.

Interesting to see what you guys believe constitutes a "robbery"....De La Hoya vs. Tito was a close fight which I had Oscar winning by 2 rounds, easily there is room for conflict being so that the fight was a Majority Decision for Tito, bottom line a close fight is not a robbery....As for Leonard vs. Hagler, I had Leonard winning by 1 round and that fight too was a split decision so if I can find 6 or 7 rounds to give to Leonard i'm sure another human being who judges for a profession can do the same......Robbery is Jones vs. Si-Hun (amateurs) and how about Ricardo Williams vs. Abdullaev in the gold medal bout in 2000, maybe 10-15 punches weren't even counted for Williams Jr., professional robbery was Sturm vs. De La Hoya in which Sturm could have won 9 rounds in anybody's view, also in my opinion I believe that Whitaker vs. De La Hoya was highway robbery but that was aided by the dumbest WBC rule in the history of sports rule where the fighter who is uncut after an accidental headbutt gets a point taken away.
i agree with some of you that a close fight is not "robbery"....someone is always going to see something opposite of what you see....no one agrees in boxing...just face it
