    What are some fights that you can think of where a fighter was wrongfully robbed of a win via decision loss or draw, but failed to avenge that outcome in the rematch?

    First to come mind would be Joe Louis vs Jersey Joe Walcott.

    Bute vs andrande

    Jcc vs taylor


    Ward vs kovy (even though the second fight was also a disgustingly corrupted affair)

    Not a decision, but Coggi-Gonzalez is the biggest robbery in boxing, Gonzalez KO'd Coggi a million times but wound up losing

    Then in the re-match, Coggi beats Gonzalez clean anyway

    For sure i fucking loathe Coggi cause of that fight. Completely outrageous



    But it was pretty obvious he was gonna win the re. Gonzalez ko in the first was the definition of fluke

    Fenech against Nelson and Harada against Famechon were the first two I thought of.

    Hasim Rahman got screwed in the first David Tua match with the late hit and bad stoppage. Then a fat Rahman probably should have gotten the decision in the rematch and they ruled it a draw.

    GGG should have gotten the decision in the first Canelo fight. Canelo was lucky to get a draw in that one. The rematch could have gone either way (I had it 114-114), but we all knew Canelo would get the nod in a close decision.

    It’s been awhile since I saw the James Toney-Montell Griffin fights, but I remember thinking Toney should have won both, and Griffin got the decisions both times

    Somehow, I overlooked Rosario-Ramirez II.

    Rosario-Randall II probably also qualifies.

    EDIT: Oops, wrong thread! :Facepalm:

    I've always scored both of those clearly for Rosario.

    Watson v Eubank I was an awful robbery. Eubank near killed him in the rematch despite being outclassed for almost all of it.

    I actually meant to post those in the "rematches better than the original thread." My bad.

    Tapia actually did avenge the 1st fight - only to be robbed much harder. :Mad2:
