There are a lot of robberies in MMA but only those that have relatively big names are remembered. Like at the moment everyone is raging about the Arlovski fight but it will be forgotten by the next event. Another recent one that comes to mind is Moraes vs Means everybody made a huge deal of noise about it at the time but no-one mentions it anymore. And only fights with the big names such as the GSP vs Hendricks or Sanchez vs Pearson are remembered. Even though technically GSP vs Hendricks was a close fight so shouldn't be seen as a robbery.
So my question to all of you is what MMA robberies do you think don't get enough attention.
For me it's Ramsey Nijem vs Andrew Holbrook. I think personally that was a robbery of the year for 2015 but in all of the top 10 robberies of the year lists at the end of 2015 nobody mentions that fight.
With fights such as Romero/Souza and Dariush/Johnson making the lists instead cos they had bigger names.

Ramsey Nijem Vs. Andrew Holbrook? the reason why people don't remember that is because no one gives a f---.
However, nobody in MMA has done a bigger robbery than Lee Murray.

That's exactly the point of this thread tho. What are the biggest robberies that nobody cares about instead of the notorious ones

Sakai vs Arlovski this past Saturday was pretty bad imo.

Zingano vs Tate was pretty bad I still don't think I've seen a ref stop a fight when a fighter was shooting for a takedown against their opponent before or since.
Hector Lombard not getting a five round fight against Okami, the Boestch decision, and no Magny stoppage basically ruined his career which is why I think the UFC hasn't cut him.
Robbie Lawler vs Carlos Condit was mathematically a blowout for Condit and yet of all the controversial WW title fights that's almost never brought up.

Rutten/Randelman
Fukuda/Ring
Garcia/Zombie&Phan
Love Robbie Lawler but Condit and Hendricks were robbed
Sherk/Dunham
Warren/Galvão
Hammil/Bisping
Rua/Machida1
Rampage/Rua
Johnson/McCall
Couture/Vera&Rizzo 1
Edgar/Penn1
Edgar/Henderson2
And every close fight that cost me in JFF were clearly robberies

the judges should be given the stats of a whole fight from punches,kicks TDs, and the amount of time in top control etc. The fans get to see that ,why cant the judges ? it may bring the amount of BS calls that get made.

Cathal Pendrad v Sean Spencer springs to mind. Cost me 9 grand in 3 crazy low coin bets. Liberty is an understatement
