Re: What's the biggest boxing robbery of all time.
I remember Britkid talking about a fight one time in Germany where the German fighter was losing to the foreign guy but the judges scored like 11 even rounds and then the final round to the home fighter to win the fight.
Anybody know what fight he was talking about?

The Kid Diamond-Huerta fight was pretty much an in-your-face robbery.

Man...Never had the pleasure.That guy was a phenom ??What ever happened to him?Britkid
That fight sounds familiar,seems like some one recently had mentioned that one
Re: What's the biggest boxing robbery of all time.
Britkid was awesome, he wouldn't tell you about how Mayweather matches up to Cotto but if you had to know the result of a 1932 flyweight eliminator in Thailand then Britkid was your man. He knew so much about the history of the sport it was amazing.

Leonard over Hagler.........It was Hagler all the way.
Re: What's the biggest boxing robbery of all time.
Worst robbery ever is Jones/Park Si Hung. I mean its really the only fight I can think of where it was a COMPLETE mismatch, a COMPLETE domination, and the wrong guy got the win.
Runner up for me is Chavez/Whitaker. The first few rounds were reasonably close, but the rest of the fight was a Whitaker schooling. I don't see how anyone could give Whitaker any less than 9 rounds, but thats boxing for ya.
Dave Tiberi vs James Toney What A Disgrace
This fight was recently uploaded so i watched it to see if it was true that Tiberi got robbed and it indeed was. This fight wasn't even close Tiberi outworked and out hustled Toney all night, heres the first part.

Re: Dave Tiberi vs James Toney What A Disgrace
He was fighting like Floyd Mayweather with power.
He was class and had great skills. Toney, Jones, Nunn and Mcallum could have competed in any era I think .
Re: Dave Tiberi vs James Toney What A Disgrace
That was fraud. THose judges should have been thrown in prison after that decision.
