    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.

    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.

    So you washed it then? Yes, not a great advert for heavyweight boxing.

    Not sure. But I think Garcia/Peterson should have been a draw and Garcia/Herrera should have gone to Herrera....

    Sergey Kovalev - Andre Ward I

    Kovalev clearly won. All 3 judges scored round 10 for Ward - no way Kovalev lost that round.

    The first Wilder v Fury fight was a robbery. That fight was 10 rounds to Fury and 2 for Wilder which were the knock downs.

    I'm very reluctant to say a fight is robbery. In fact "Robbery" is the most over used term in boxing

    These were low volume fights. I don't think 10 clean punches where landed in any round. So it becomes a context of who is controlling the ring and ring generalship. Who looks like they're in control and that's opinion.

    These fights were not a robberies. Not even close.

    When Canelo fought Triple G again again "Robbery !!" Nope. It was a close fight.

    I often like to watch fights the next day with the commentary off then you get a more balanced viewpoint because your not as excited and swayed by the commentators

    But the fight's I'd say where robberies are

    • Roy Jones Olympics
    • Casamayor - Santa Cruz
    • Pac-Man - Bradley

    Yes, it was a robbery. The American judge's card was absurd, he was obviously dishonest.

    That was a close fight, robberies are at least 9 rounds to 3.
