      Golovkin vs Monroe,I felt like Golovkin was fatigued (from draining to fight small guys because Smoky the bear aka Sanchez knows he would get beat fighting Ward)and Willie Monroe was just warming up,then all of a sudden he's clipped by a phantom punch and quits while winking at Loeffler.

          The Mickey Rourke vs that homeless dude fight.

          Can definitely point to many a judging decision that was for sure suspect, but I can't really point to a fight where it looked like a fighter took a dive (refs having a variety of styles, ranging from "work it out between the two of you" Steve Smoger to "only clean, long punching" Joe Cortez, leaves me with giving refs the benefit of the doubt; Laurence Cole has been in some shiesty looking bouts, though)

            You're high, Mickey won that fight fair & square against a young, hungry lion (like literally hungry too because like you said he's homeless)

              I agree. Those fights looked like they were ... scripted.

                Not a notable fight but this one seemed obvious: Sonny bill Williams vs Botha -

                Old Man Botha took WIlliams to deep waters by design, had him gassing and on his way to getting KOed in the championship rounds when the fight was inexplicably cut short by 2 rounds and called after the 10th. Confusion everywhere - scores are read and Botha loses a UD by several rounds lol

                I vaguely remember a fight with Sean Monagham where Arum added on rounds after everyone thought it was over. Adding rounds to fills TV time is probably not unheard of but it was pretty funny

                Barrett vs Rahman (the bout was so bad there had to be an explanation - come to find out they were good friends or related in some way cant rememer which now)

                agree with the Banks v mitchell post too.

                Also I thought before the fight that Wilder/Scott would have a "wtf" sort of ending and it did - this one might just be me confirming a bias on how I thought it would go. No evidence that it was a fix
