    Bigger Robbery: Lewis-Holyfield I or Trinidad-De La Hoya

    For me it's Lewis-Holyfield I.. Holyfield was dominated for 9 of 12 rounds and the other 3 rounds were all disputed. A case could be made that Evander won a total of 0 rounds.

    Oscar vs Tito was a 9-3 win for Oscar.. but he didn't put as big of a beating on Trinidad as Lewis did to Holyfield. A case could be made also that Oscar lost the last 3 rounds...

    That being said both should have been wins for Lewis and De La Hoya.. no questions asked.

    It's amazing that Don King orchestrated the 2 biggest robberies in the last 15 years in ONE year alone.

      Oscar gave away the last 4 rounds on his own. King had nothing to do that

        Was Don King part of the Chavez-Whitaker and Chavez-Taylor fights as well?
        I think he was but not 100% sure.

          I agree, that fight is more up for debate as oppose to Lewis-Holyfield.... but it was still a pretty clear 8-4 Oscar win. (Also I think he gave away the last 3 rounds, didn't he do well in Round 9?)

            Lewis-Holyfield 1 without any question.

            I don't even think Tito-Oscar was a robbery.

              Oscar vs Tito by a split hair Lennox dominated just as Oscar did.

                    Lewis landed over 200 more punches than Holyfield, completely dominated him.
