    All 3 fights were similar where the best fighters finally met and gave the fans an entertaining show but the results were met with a lot of negativity. Which would you say has the best case of being the biggest “robbery” in your opinion?

    Put it This Way…

    Canelo Definitely LOST the 1st Triple G Fight.
    Andre Ward Probably LOST the 1st Kovalev Fight.
    Haney-Loma was a DRAW…

    This shouldn't even be a question. Canelo-Golovkin 1 was a horrible robbery. Ginger got his ass kicked 9-3.

    Canelo-GGG 1 probably had the largest consensus on whom the winner was.

    Haney-Lomachenko will have a more even distribution of opinions.

    Ward-Kovalev 1 is in the middle.

    I have a bigger problem with Ward-Kovalev 1. Kov clearly outboxed Dre imo. He deserved that win.

    Haney-Loma was a close fight.

    Id never call Haney-Loma a robbery. Yes, loma probably deserved the win, and the fix definitely was in, but Haney has a case for winning that fight. I cant see a case.for Ward against Kovy, even a draw would have been generous imo

    It was one of the worst draws in history though.

    Only draws in big fights that were worse are the obvious two: Whitaker-Chavez and Lewis-Holy 1.

    Does Fenech vs Nelson 1 and SRL vs Hearns 2 count?

    I was drunk when i watched it, and in a bar. Didnt seem so bad to me, at the time. Only rewatched a few rounds of it afterward, and yes, GGG seems like he was dominating with his jab

    They're up there too. Forgot about Leonard-Hearns 2.

    GGG-Canelo was the most clear cut imo but as JoM said, at least Golovkin did no get a L. So it's Ward-Kovalev for me, close fight but no way in hell Ward won 7 rounds (and don't get me started on the rematch :Tough:)
