People confuse 6-6, 7-5 fights for robberies. No, Pacquiao vs. Marquez 1-3, Floyd vs. Maidana, Canelo vs Lara/Trout were not robberies.
Garcia-Herrera, Rios-Abril were.

Those popped off the top of my head. Some were close, but all of them were clear.

Guzman was one of my favourite fighters but he got well beaten that night and the judges scored it a Majority Draw. Funeka used his height and reach to perfection against a far more skilful fighter.
This is a good pick. Along with Lara/Williams it was it was the first one that popped into my head.

I was there live and scored it 4 rounds to froch.
How anyone can call that a robbery is beyond me...

The fights on youtube mate, the best shots were landed by froch in rounds 3 AND 8.
Dirrell best round was round 10 were he had a point rightfully deducted.
He also ducked illegally by showing the back of his head.
Only ray charles could have scored that to Dirrell...

at people picking Mayweather Castillo and Maidana 1.. It never fails. Pull your heads out of your asses, morons.
Rios Abril was pretty bad, Rios won 4 rounds at best. But I don't think it was anywhere near the "schooling" people say it was. It had mostly to do with Rios being weight drained, which he admitted was his own fault. He shouldn't have tried to make 135. I think an undrained Rios stops him.
Nonetheless, the decision stunk.
There was another fight but for the life of me I cannot remember the names of these guys: A Mexican prospect fought some unknown Polish guy and the Mexican got a huge gift. It happened sometime last year, perhaps in the fall. Anyone have an idea?

Campillo/Cloud is the worst robbery I have ever seen, corrupt officiating also aided in Miranda/Abraham 1, Miranda should have a tko win over him but the ref allowed Abe to have like 5 minutes to recover and needlessly took points when really Miranda won about 9 rds in that fight.
