    Comments Thread For: BoxingScene.com's 2014 Robbery of The Year

    Magnifying the lack of significant fights to have taken place in 2014 was the fact that fans were left to bear witness to some horrible officiating in the action that was presented. Bad scoring has forever plagued the sport, but it seems like the problem is only getting worse, and there was plenty to go around in the past 12 months.

    But what was truly the worst of the worst on the year? You are about to soon find out. [Click Here To Read More]

      Except that Mayweather-Maidana is the only fight that actually took place in this decade.

        I didn't feel that fight was a robbery. Provo hardly did a thing after the second round.

          Algieri/Provodnikov was not even close to a robbery.

            Floyd-Maidana I was the biggest robbery by far in every way but mainly because two of the scorecards were so one-sided... Mauricio definitely second and Algieri against PRovo shouldn't have been on the list.. it was a debatable fight where Algieri outboxed him in more rounds...

              I couldn't find the rounds for Algieri to win that one, he was too deep in the hole (or chained in the cage). I re-scored it not long ago.

                I haven't seen the fight, but supposedly the decision in the Tyson Cave/Oscar Escandon fight was atrocious.

                  Would have to watch it again but I had Algieri quite wide actually.
                  I'm not a fan of none effective aggression. I felt Algieri outworked and outboxed him and he had no answers but too follow him around eating jabs. He looked lost.
