The worst robbery I have ever witnessed, and can't imagine anything being much worse than, was
Juan Coggi-Eder Gonzalez I.
Here's an article about this travesty of a prize fight.

Whitaker vs Ramirez 1 I believe i had it 118-110.
Re: The Worst Robbery Ever
Mayorga vs. Spinks.
Hands down the WORST robber I've ever seen. I had Mayorga winning 10/12 rounds, plus he got screwed outta at least 2 knockdowns. And those FUCKERS gave it to Spinks. Total BS!
Re: The Worst Robbery Ever
I just saw the Kid Diamond v Huerta.
The decision almost made me puke.
Re: The Worst Robbery Ever
Can't remember the fight but i remember CutMeMick putting up a video of the ref talking to officials at ringside that has to be one of the biggest robberies.
Re: The Worst Robbery Ever
Holyfield vs Lewis I
What fight was the chick judge (Washington, right?) watching?
Re: The Worst Robbery Ever
Danny Green claims that in his first fight with Beyer that the ref said the headbutt he landed on Markus was accidental and it had to go to the cards. Ten minutes later he was DQ'd when it was revealed he was ahead.
Re: The Worst Robbery Ever
Almost all robberies are clearly NOT.
One that springs to mind is - Jorrin-Brodie. Everyman and his dog had Brodie the winner. But obviously he didn't get it (with memory loss, i'm not certain how much of a "robbery" it really was :-\).

Eagle, the cut to Beyer in the 2nd round came from no headbutt, ( I have watched that round many times and Beyer was cut from a punch) but Green did indeed deliberately headbutt Beyer out of frustration in the 5th round and was rightly DQ'd.

Agreed. That fight and Toney/Tiberi comes to mind.

Rep on that one.I remember watching this on Sunday afternoon replay on Univision way back when and yelling in loudest tone "WTF" at least 10 times.This was without a doubt and ALL fights Ive seen over the past 20 years being considererd...THE WORST SHOWING BY A REFEREE.....EVER!!Plain and simple bought & payed for favoritism nearing criminality.Literally holding a limp Coggi up and letting corner revive him among other crap!!Forget scoring...A literal robbery !
Re: The Worst Robbery Ever
rjj not winning the gold metal was by far the biggest robbery of all, it was a no contest rjj beat the fuck out of that chump, but beacuse he was a hometown boy they gave it to him!

Like i said Green claims the ref said the headbutt was accidental then changed his mind. I wasnt there but if htat happened it is a robbery.
On the robbery note the first fight i ever watched was Fenech v Nelson 1, now that was a robbery. Poor Jeff was never the same afterwards.
Re: The Worst Robbery Ever
Yep Fenech V Nelson I is a bad one alright.

I gave Nelson 3 rounds.
Likewise for Holyfield against Lewis the first time around.
Chavez-Whitaker was bad, but not as bad a draw as those two. I had that one 8-4 for Pea.
