There was one on the European stage recently that had an official complaint lodged with the EBU and is reputed (haven't seen it myself yet) to be one of the biggest robberies of all time: Damaen Kelly vs. Simone Maludrottu (Bantamweight Title).
Of the fights listed, then I haven't seen them all, but while some could appear controversial, I wouldn't consider them robberies: Hatton-Collazo, for example. I had Collazo winning the first time, but with the KD (however dubious) all Hatton had to do was win half the rounds to take it on points, remember. Tarver-Jones I was extremely contentious, but a lot of it was down to Tarver's lazy streak. In both these fights, the winner lost the "fight", but won the boxing match if you see what I mean. I also had Barrera and Ali winning in their respective options.
With all this in mind my pick was Lewis vs. Holyfield, which was just incredible.
