    Many felt that Louis vs. Walcott was a horrid decision.

    Yes , it was.
    I just watched this fight yesterday. I didn't score the rounds or anything but Walcott definetly won that fight.

    Augustus-Burton is probably the worst in recent memory. DLH-Sturm was pretty damn bad as well..

    Pintor-Zarare was so embarrassing that even Jose Sulaiman apologized :lol:

    Eubank vs Sherry.

    If that wasn't such a low key fight it would have had the biggest and ugliest investigation into boxing corruption in history.

    It was EVIDENT that Barry Hearn convinced the judges after the fight to change their scorecards and reflect Eubank as the winner.

    a lot of people say that. i'm in the minority in not having a problem with Rico winning the fight. I didn't think he won 8 rounds, but honestly it was a shitty fight that probably should've been scored 0-0.

    I thought Johnson-Judah was far worse than that.

    I think it was a chance to piggyback on the momentum that the MI commission is pathetic and at least morally corrupt. It was a few months after Augustus-Courtney Burton (since Sly wants to be a wiseass, and the commission was already under fire.

    You were robbed when you bought Money Mayweather's first single.

    That's gotta be the worst one ever, mind-boggling considering it was in Everett's backyard. :dunno:

    Honorable mention has to go to the following...

    a.) Ramirez vs. Whitaker - WTF?
    b.) Toney vs. Tiberi - Tiberi never fought again
    c.) Louis vs. Walcott - First time Joe got booed.

    If we're including amateur, then Roy - Park is the worst decision I've seen, hands down. How they could get away with that I really don't know.

    That's were threads like this get ruined. People start throwing up close decisions that they didn't agree with instead of actual robberies.

    Whitaker-Rameriz was a robbery. Mayweather- Castillo 1 was a close fight. Period.
