Re: Worst Decisions/Robberies of 2011?
Chisora v Helenius stands above all others. Ive yet to see anyone who didnt have Chisora winning, now thats a robbery.
For me the other big one this year is Macklin v Sturm. But im gona have to bow down on it cos there is a section of people that think Sturm won. From my point of view I really REALLY cant see how, it was a very clear win for Macklin (9-3 for me).
At the end of the day though it can only truly be called a true robbery if basically no one agrees with the decision, so on those terms, Macklin doesnt count (even if I think it should).
For me Lara shouldnt be included, I thought that was a close enough fight to not be a robbery, there were swing rounds in there. Dont get me wrong I had Lara winning 7-5 but for me thats not a robbery, just a bad very unlucky decision.
There was another really bad one, but not that many people probably saw it. It was Jamie Cox vs Obodai Sai. Cox got a UD but no one had him winning and he landed a sick amount of low blows so could have been DQ'd as well. Check it out if you dont know it.
Chisora definitely fits the bill perfectly however.
