worst decision in boxing

[amagnin]

There will always be bad decisions(or perceived bad decisions) in boxing because judging... is just that, judging. Judging is subjective and different people don't always see the same thing.

Having said that, here's a few current decisions which I don't think the judges got right:

1. Oneil Bell-Dale Brown (my score card- Brown UD)

2. Collazo-Hatton (my score card- Hatton-Collazo draw)

3. Hopkins-Taylor I (I had Hopkins UD)

These are the worst decisions you can think of? I mean I have no issue with Bell-Brown as that was a wretched decision. But Collazo-Hatton and Hopkins-Taylor were just two close fights that could have gone either way or to a draw. Watch the Lewis-Holyfield fight and tell me if ou think that was a draw. Or Whitaker-Ramirez or Whitaker-Chavez both straight robberies.

My bad I didn't see that you wrote RECENT. Yes those were some of the closer decisions as of late. If you watched the Urango-Ben Rabah fight I thought that was a recent ****ty decision.

I dunno how Ward got the first win over Gatti...

You couldn't of picked much of a closer fight to call a robbery...!

That's his point, it's judging...

Right but the name of th e thread is worst decisions in boxing. Close fights in general shouldn't be grouped in a worst decisions unless the scores are completely out of whack ie. Leonard-Hagler (118-110 Leonard) that is what I was saying.

Emanuel Augustus vs Courtney Burton

Even the offiiating in that fight was attrocious. Augustus was deducated a point for breaking a clinch.

Easily the worst robbery I can remember seeing in my 30+ years of watching boxing.

Damn straight. That ref was sucking hometown ****
