From the list Glen Johnson.

Although I think Oscar De La Hoya has been on the wrong end of a few decisions (admittedly he has had a few go his way also). I thought he beat Trinidad and Mosley, both of which were massive fights at the time. I thought he lost to Mayweather but a lot of people thought he won that fight as well.

The most robbed boxer is Tim Witherspoon in particular, any other fighter who fought for Don King, and Ricky Hatton being mugged for his Rolex deserves a mention. LMAO.

Anyone who thinks Johnson was robbed in the last Woods fight is living in cloud cuckoo land. Woods had that fight, by 1 round in my opinion.

Having said that, I thought he was robbed in some of the others mentioned, so i might vote for him. :D

On this list maybe Witherspoon, but Roy Jones in the Olympics is just ridiculous.

I`d like to mention Hasim Rahman. He was robbed in the first Toney fight, robbed in the second Tua fight ( and robbed in the first Tua fight the stoppage was laughable ).

I think one of the biggest screwjobs in boxing history is not on the list when Lennox Lewis was robbed of his win in the 1st fight against Holyfield

Gotta say I agree with this.

I had him winning the Mayweather fight also. It was a lot closer than it may have seemed. Ive probably seen that fight over ten times and I have only ever had Mayweather drawing the fight once.
