      Though I have not seen the fight.....those who witnessed it say that TYRONE EVERETT-ALFREDO ESCALERA is the worst decision in boxing history.

      Everett won at least 10 of the 15 rds....& really clowned & battered Escalera. Only to get jobbed.

      You all should Google their names...see if you find anything.

              The biggest robbery was probably Tyson vs Williams. Can you believe I payed money to see that ****? Same anyone who payed for Vitali vs Williams.

                I am still a teen so i never watched boxin in tha old days
                but i wanna know what u people think

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