    Nicholas Walters "draw" with Jason Sosa was criminal. I think the fix was in and someone wanted to take some shine or push off of the Walters.

    I knew there had been one recently but could't remember what fight I was thinking of, that was it. Walters didn't look stellar but probably won every round, about as bad as it gets.

    Worst decision I've seen in recent years was that judge that scored the mayweather vs Canelo fight a draw. I was honestly confused how they had it a draw and surly must have took a bribe from golden boy.

    Pacquiao - Bradley I

    The 2012 Olympics has some robberies: for example Savon-Joshua and Khrytrov-Ogogo.

    One of the worst Olympic robberies I've seen was Ward-Haydarov in the 2004 semi-finals at light heavyweight. Ward was knocked down and had to desperately clinch to survive. The judges awarded him some of his points without him even throwing a punch.

    any journeyman robberies that you can think of

    like a prospect fights a journeyman, expected to win and should really have been beaten

    I remember Tom Dallas fighting Zak Page (I think he was called) and losing badly but winning

    The first Groves Froch fight, absolutely disgraceful stoppage. Froch made £8M from the rematch and it should have gone to Groves.

    Yep that first Pacquaio vs Bradley fight takes the cake.

    As high profile as it gets and just a blatant robbery.

    And now they're fighting for a third time...

    I believe Fury was robbed of a near flawless victory against Wlad.

    The contest was not even close 10 rounds to 2 if it was held in any other country.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Jamie Cox win over Obodai Sai was an absolute shocker. Id backed Sai at fancy prices that night and was so discusted I sent an angry letter to the BBBoC. Think I had Said wiining 10-2 or 9-3 and Coz also had 2 points taken off him and still managed to win.
