Boxing is a sport that seems to actually welcome controversy at times, and last weekend's Andre Ward vs Sergey Kovalev PPV event confirmed it. There's just something about a sideshow spectacle that nobody can walk away from or ignore, and boxing's good at it.
This week on Knuckles and Gloves Boxing Radio's history edition, Compubox operator Aris Pina and writer/historian Patrick Connor remember some of the most controversial fight finishes ever. From Ad Wolgast vs Mexican Joe Rivers in 1912, to Evander Holyfield vs Mike Tyson II in 1997, and back on to Max Schmeling vs Jack Sharkey I in 1930... Like we said, "most controversial fight finishes EVER." Those and more.
