Thats going a little overboard when Chavez Whitaker and Augustus Burton still happened ;)
Re: What's the biggest boxing robbery of all time.
To be a robbery, surely the loser had to have won without doubt - can't say that aout a lot these fights
How about Jimmy Vincent v David Barnes - (only a few people will know the fight I mean)

Oggie it seems like Pernell Whitaker was robbed his whole career, against Chavez, Ramirez, and De La Hoya.

Agreed.
The De La Hoya one was not quite as bad as the others, but I still thought Pernell won the fight comfortably... quite remarkable when you consider he was past his prime and fighting a young, future 6 weight world champion and hall of famer.
His only legit loss that I have seen was his loss against Felix Trinidad and, well, he was WAY past his best then and on a drugs assisted downward spiral. :(
The man was incredible. At lightweight, I would have never bet against him... and that includes a match with Duran!

Agree entirely
add Chavez - Whitaker
cant remember the name of the other boxer, but that fight Bobby Pacquaio was absolutely gifted last year was unbelievable. I have no clue how that one happened, was ridiculous. Anyone help me out with the name of the other boxer?
Yes it was former World Champ Carlos "Famoso" Hernandez and the loss brought his wife to tears. Judges oughta be real proud of themselves. Now THAT was a ROBBERY my friend.
Cheers Hulk :coolclick:, yeah that was the most disgraceful robbery ive ever seen. And Pernell's ones even though Im too young to have seen them live, when I watched them recently were ridiculous, particularly Chavez in my opinion.
