Thread: Biggest robbery

Im trying to think of a bigger robbery than the chisora helenius fight last night and i dont think i can

I always remember reid v ottke which was definately a robbery but i thought reid lost a 2 or 3 of the later rounds and almost gave the judges an excuse

Last night you could have given chisora all 12 and it have been a more accurate reflection of the fight that what the judges had it

So has there been a bigger robbery?

Fidel Castro Smith -v- Henry Wharton.

Smith boxed the pants & socks off Wharton, yet the referee raised Wharton's hand & declared him the winner.

I havent seen the fight but it seems Del got shafted.

This is the thing it's not uncommon in boxing,
I remember years ago in Italy a cruiser weight
title fight,guy get's ko end of the round.
And they tried to get the other disqualified,
I can't recall the name's but it was a WBC title fight

The fight was entertaining and Derek gave it his all and if it was anywhere else he would have got the decision.

It was criminal.

I don't think this is the one you mean but i found this one, http://youtu.be/iorlwOvNB0g?t=55m where Carlos de Leon annoyed at Massimiliano Duran being allowed to punch him in the nads by the ref takes matters into his own hands post bell...priceless crowd reaction
