No, it wasn't a robbery. Having said that, I watched that fight at a friends house with a half dozen guys who don't follow boxing whatsoever and all but one person legitimately felt Marquez had gotten screwed after the decision was announced, more or less. Now that's not to say it was the case, just that it really did appear(to myself included) that Marquez won that fight by a good margin, and it was certainly as high profile as any bout that had gone down for a while. A few other fights were clearly worse decisions, but they didn't mean jack squat for the sport and only true boxing nerds would've seen them. Of course Helenius-Chisora was techinically a worse decision on the cards; but can it in fact be a bigger robbery than an actual prize fight that went the wrong way? I say no.
