      Gabriel Campillo. Gets robbed horribly against Murat, Shumenov and Cloud. All three of those opponents who he should have gotten the decision against got to fight Hopkins.

      Meanwhile he gets thrown over to Kovalev who tears him a new one.

      No way he gets the decision against Betebiev, assuming it goes the distance.

        Herrera and Malignaggi, imo, are the unluckiest fighters that come to mind right now, for the simple fact that genetics failed them. Both guys have come close to maxing out what they were born with, but it's left them a cut below the truly elite level.

        Herrera can't punch; to even try and compete, he's maxed out using the trips/traps of the sport; only problem with that is that such a style leaves enough questions in the eye of the judges that it's difficult for him to win many nip/tuck rounds.

        Malignaggi has brittle/damaged hands; his boxing mind is world-level and he's been schooled well enough in the gym to be a win world titles. You give him even half a punch and he might've been a really special fighter.

          Mauricio Herrera was my first go-to answer when I read this. It's hard to dust yourself off from one horrific judging decision, but to have two happen in the same year? That's just life being cruel to the man.

                Meldrick Taylor is the worst. Literally seconds away from a possible win

                  He lost the judah fight.

                  Alexander fight was close I thought lucas won it tho slightly, but it was devons hometown and there were some swing rounds.

                  Then he got outboxed/dropped on the biggest boxing event in the past 10 years by danny garcia after begging for a fight with him and talking all this **** about him.


                  Damn....this must be the most unlucky fighter in history of boxing and its not even close...tsk tsk....

                    Herrera for suffering blatant robberies and JM Marquez, who was either outright robbed or had close decision after close decision go against him. Moreso Herrera tho because JMM at least got a chance to be champ and make alota money, even tho he coulda made tons more. Pobrecito Herrera didn't get a chance to be champ and he's not making the money he should. That sucks immeasurably bad when you consider how long he, as all fighters, sacrifice for years to make it in this most brutal of all sports.

                      Ruben Guerrero 0-7

                      Fought 7 bums and still lost.... he had a combination of no skills + unluckiness. Face it... some of the worst fighters in history have atleast 1 or 2 wins in their resume.... this man has none.
