It was the countless infringements from Cox that Mark Green(im sure) let him away with that riled me most about that fight
Think he took 2/3 points away and he still ended up winning on all cards. It wasn't the best nights refereeing by green. Cox was lucky he wasn't chucked out

There have been thousands. Damean Kelly got a gift in one of his fights. I bet on him to win but had crumpled my slip up and thrown it at the telly. In the Amatuers, there are so many bad ones week in week out. Kids are left heartbroken by truly baffling verdicts.

Worst one for was how Michael Brodie got shafted in the fight against Willie Jorrin.

Was a joke and arguably affected Brodie's career beyond repair.

First rule of boxing is never be suprised by anything Terry O'Connor does. Second rule of boxing is defend yourselves at all times.

Joe Calzaghe 116 - Bernard Hopkins - 111 (Chuck Giampa). When that was read out, I was sure Buffer named the wrong man. Calzaghe by 5 including a 10-8 round going against him - rediculous.

Chuch Giampa has some terrible cards, check them out on this site.

The two 115-112 cards for Froch vs Dirrell were pretty poor also.

Great call, more times you watch it the more you can appreciate Chavez's work.... but no way that should have been a draw.

Not quite the 'worst' scorecard ever but one anomaly that always sticks in my mind was a fight between Cristian Mijares and Jose Navarro in 2008. It appeared that Mijares had won comfortably and the scorecards came back at 115-113, 117-111 both for Mijares and then a remarkable 120-108 to Navarro! Just shows how we can all be watching the fights so differently.

Unbelievable score that one. I don`t think we can put that down to just different opinion of how a fight has gone. something more sinister has to be at work. If not, then the guy must be banned for utter incompetence.

If i was that bad at my job, I`d be out on my ear.
