worst judging?

need help on obscure trivia:

in sports with subjective scoring (skating, gymnastics, diving, boxing, whatever) - what were some of the most disputed or grossly ridiculous outcomes?

 

Roy Jones Jr. in the Olympics

The good ol' figure skating scandal in 2002

 

Any East German judges in figure skating.

 

I believe Nancy Kerrigan actually beat Oksana Baiul in the '94 Lillehammer Games, but an arithmetic error gave the gold to Baiul.

Also, Jamie Sale and Pelletiere (sp?); and Paul Hamm's all-around gold in the Athens Games.

 

Ice dancing has had several disputed results over the years. That's probably the dirtiest of the ice skating disciplines, which is dirty in general.

 

the entire 1988 olympic boxing competition was a fiasco

Sirs, Madames,

Boxing: Some will say Roy Jones in Seoul but he won three rounds of a three round fight. More extreme is at 118 and one of the great champs, Carlos Zarate getting jobbed against Lupe Pintor -- it was a virtual 15-round shutout for Zarate and the judges' scoring was just all over the place. Like they agreed to lie but couldn't keep the story straight.

Hockey: Kerry Fraser's blind-eye to 99's swordwork, LA vs Leafs 93.

Misc.: Orenthal.

YHS, etc

 

he said sports

 

There was a Holyfield-Lewis heavyweight title fight (pretty sure it was them) that ended in a draw. Must've been the late 90s or early 2000s. The judge who scored it even was way off from the other judges, and later explained it by saying she had a bad angle for watching the fight.

 

I don't have the energy or the motivation to look the details, but Holyfield got jobbed big-time in the Olympics, as I recall.

And the skating thing where the Russians paid the French judge to out the fix in for their skaters -- or something like that -- in Salt Lake City.

 

Is that when Holyfield got robbed? He was beating the shit out of the guy, but not hitting him in "scoring" spots, according to the (insane) judges.
