Name a fight you believe was fixed and why?

[Weltschmerz]

Liston vs Ali II.

[Weebler I]

Banks-Mitchell

[ElMeroChingon]

Sutherland/Rainford

Doubt it, they really hated each other.

One day Rainford came at him at the bar and called his wife a dirty tramp.

Suthernland, who was sitting right next to her jumped up furious, and said

"No one, I MEAN NO ONE!, talks to my sister like that walks out on his own two feet"

fight was signed and done later that day.

I could think of a few UFC fights that reeked of ulterior influences but no boxing matches come to mind, unless you're taking about judging. Plenty of of questionable scorecards, particularly in TX. There's been a few refs that were obviously looking out for a particular fighter as well.

What ufc fights???

I have watched it since ufc 1, and have never thought any fight was fixed...

I don't think a lot of boxing is fixed but obviously Tim-manny 1, evander-lewis 1 andthe judge that gave canelo a draw vs floyd were all crooked..

Oscar-hopkins looked staged as well

[Sugar Adam Ali]

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

I was at barrett-Rahman ringside in Chicago... I thought with their styles it would be a barn burner but it was the biggest crap fight ever

[Eff Pandas]

The Lance Whitaker KO of Oleg Maskaev always looked sketchy to me, but I haven't seen in awhile to reaccess.

[Ahmed_Ismail]

Mike Tyson vs Bruce Seldon

Oscar Dela Hoya vs Bernard Hopkins

[PACnPBFsuck]

lol some people thought Likar Ramos took a dive against Marquez... Probably the same clowns that thought Kimbo Slice vs Ken Shamrock was staged

One of the worst dives in the history of sports, so bad (or good) that they got him a new pick up truck.

[Y0@NN]

JMM vs Likar Ramos, very bad acting from Ramos

[mezoomozaa]

Even a blind man could tell the following fights were 100% fixed:


Hopkins vs DLH
Mayweather vs Ortiz
Pacquiao vs Morales III
Tyson vs Peter McNeeley
