    I had Lewis winning both fights, but the second one by a smaller margin.
    I'm amazed by this, Lewis clearly won the first fight but i must have missed something in the second fight because i thought Holyfield schooled him and i never gave a round to Lewis until the 9th and even that was a charity.

    Marquez vs Pacquaio. 3 knockdowns and still the former win by a draw.

    Just because there was 3 knockdowns doesn't make it a robbery Marquez won more of the rounds i had Pac edging it but only just but controversy is with that one judge who didn't score the first round 10-6 because if he did Pac would of won.

    That has got to be one of the worst. I mean the fight is stopped due to a cut on Napoles eye that was caused by a punch and the ref. stops the fight and then suddenly Jose Sulaiman (WBC President) the judges and the ref. all huddle up and decide to somehow god knows why award Napoles the win.

    WTF?

    It was robbery considering that they did not correct the judge's score after the judge admitted his error.

    This has to be the worst inclusion. That was in no shape or form a robbery and justice was served by the making the error. JMM should have won that fight but it was close either way.

    I totally agree but let me word it differently. There are far too many fans that think just because their favourite fighter lost,it was a robbery when in fact the fight was close. Far too many close fights are viewed as robberies nowadays when in actual fact,very few are.

    Well said mate. For me, it would have to be a serious miscarriage of justice to make it a robbery. When it's a round or two either way, I think you have to admit that judges can give it either way, as they all have seperate views of the fight, and sometimes slightly different criteria for judging.

    In order to make it a robbery....I think the judges would have to get at least four or five rounds which were quite clearly to one fighter wrong.

    So by your scoring 2nd fight was even more of robbery than the 1st ?? no way bro.
    I see what you mean with my scoring but 116-112 is still pretty conclusive for Lewis in the first fight. I just thought Holyfield did a great job in fight two and Lewis was lazy, i gave holyfield the last round as well because Lewis just didn't do enough in that round.
    You will always get discrepancies with scorecards, take Mosley V DLH for example, Mosley gets a MD decision over DLH in their first fight and he clearly won it, yet in fight two he gets a UD when i thought he lost it 115-113. (Neither of those fights were robberies by the way, although DLH was stiff to lose fight two) It's still Whitaker V Chavez at the top of my list as far as robberies are concerned.
