So the new england *CHEATriots* get caught *cheating* the exact same way nearly a dozen times in less than 10 years and they don’t get mentioned?? Is watchmojo blind or are they this stupid???
Can't wait for your "20 more athletes caught cheating" to be uploaded.
Spoilt for choice.
I was expecting cheating on their spouse.
Ooooooooooooooooj
Not gonna lie but when they showed Will Smith(The Actor) I really started thinking “What’d he do now?!?!” 😂
For a second, I said to myself: "He used to play a sport in the past?"🤪
😅😆😂
I LOVE WILL
Diddo 🤣🤣🤣
@@drastetivane lol that was lame asf
they aren't sorry for their actions, they're sorry they got caught
Except Dwight howard
🎯
SAD😎
Because your other team did so even more lmao My Stros just were sloppy
Not all of them. Maradona certainly showed no guilt for example and in some quarters it made him even more popular.
Actually one I've just thought of who isn't mentioned here is the Olympic sprinter Ben Johnson. Any athlete who illegally does something to deny an opponent prize for their efforts is by definition a cheat. Some, like Lance Armstrong got away with it. But it must be hard in athletics when herbal remedies like Ginseng tea, can give false positives (as Linford Christie found out).
I’m tired of hearing cheating sportsmen say “I made a mistake”. Just tell the truth and say “I cheated and got caught. I accept whatever punishment the authorities decide”.
preach
So totally agree .
Tru nobody can honestly say they've never bent the rules if someone says that they lyin better to own up
Saying such things is a career ending move in most cases.
I'd add: '... and I will never play in any kind of tournament again, ever!'
How can Luiz Resto only be number 9? This wasn't just cheating, it was a criminal offence.
He should have been #1 cheater of all time! Dude was a dirty dog cheater! Poor Billy Collins Jr. finally took his own life because of the damage this fight did to him.
Facts he made bill collins jr lose his vision and a few months later take his own life.😢
He's definitely top 10. there was also cheating boxer that put plates on his gloves.
9:18 this is the worst kind of cheat because someone could have died. Doing something to gain a few points extra is wrong but loading your boxing gloves should be a prison sentence
That and I watched a documentary about that guy and his coach, and not only did they take padding out they wrapped his hands in plaster the boxers own words
Absolutely 💯 that kind of boxing cheat should get real hard time, what about the real serious contender, ya all American sportsman he was well on his way, but this night ruined Thomson, the cheating 🐭 every one who was part of this worst case of cheating I've ever seen or heard of, I hope from then on hope they all suffered for rest of their lives.❤️💛💚✌️😉🏴
They both went to prison... and billy did die, essentially because his boxing career ended
Panama Lewis, the trainer that took out the glove's padding and replaced it with plaster, was notorious for cheating. He was suspended for life and did do prison time for this.
Collins should’ve been able to sue his ass
The way I see it, if you don’t want to play a game fair, then don’t play at all
You tell them Karen.
You must not’ve grown up watching Eddie Guerrero 😂😂😂
They want to win, they want to perform in their work ... I don't think it's just a game for them
Yeah yeah yeah... Wtf are you doing man
If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying.
What they failed to mention from the Collins-Resto fight, was that not only did Resto have padding removed from his gloves, he also had his hand wraps dipped in plaster of Paris. The poor kid was basically hit by bricks for 10 rounds. Beyond tragic story, RIP Billy Ray Collins.
Christ, what a monstrous thing to do to a man just to get a win. Glad he got caught at least, but damn.
@@argoth83
Check out the HBO special, Assault in the Ring if you get a chance. Well done piece on the whole fight. Panama Lewis, the trainer who orchestrated the whole thing was always a cheat. Him and Resto ended up being convicted and jailed over this.
@@tomlewis9207i have hbo i need to check this out thanks
I was wondering why he did jail time.
@@wes6244 In 1986, Lewis and Resto were both put on trial and found guilty of assault, criminal possession of a weapon (Resto's hands) and conspiracy.
All flopping or faking an injury should be penalized. No matter the sport.
Eh. I feel like it depends on the circumstances. In the NBA if a player flops in the last seconds of the finals giving his team foul shots that give them the lead that should be penalized. But if it's inconsequential then yeah overlook it.
it's part of the game and strategy
It’s part of the sport.
it is for hockey they even get fined
Or require them to leave the game for mandatory medical evaluation and treatment.
Luis Restos gloves didn't just have the padding removed he also had plastered them!!! Absolutely insane!
Restos should have been charged with aggravated assault and battery, as what he did was turning boxing into illegal street fighting in a boxing match
The Thierry Henry incident is actually known as the "Hand of Frog" here in Ireland
🤣🤣 That's hilarious
Haha! I’m French and was so ashamed of this incident. Ireland should have gone through.
As an American, it's always interesting to hear about soccer scandals. The sport isn't very popular here nor is the World Cup so we don't hear about these things much sadly.
@@ThwipThwipBoomjust imagaine baseball but on a world scale. It’s bad lol
Football is an unfair sport and unfairness is part of the beauty of football. We could write a 5,000-page book on football refereeing errors or "cheating".
How many thousands of players have pretended to be fouled to get a penalty? How many players have hurt another player on purpose and the referee didn't see it? The rule is "As long as the referee doesn't catch you, you can do it". Video Assistant Referees is almost anti-football.
I think what is more disgusting by this is how little to no punishment was applied to these cheaters.
The Astros received way less punishment then deserved. All that got was pitchers throwing behind their heads.
@@certifiedjocpedersonsimp490 They were fined the maximum allowed by the MLB constitution, forced to forfeit their first- and second-round draft picks in 2020 and 2021 and their manager and GM were suspended for the entire 2020 season, including the playoffs. The players couldn't be punished because they were granted immunity for giving statements so that MLB could determine the extent of the cheating. They couldn't strip the title because there was no evidence that the "cheating" changed the outcomes of any games (they had better batting averages and scoring on the road where they couldn't cheat). MLB also didn't want the widespread information they received about all of the other scandals going on getting out, so they stopped short of that.
Australian cricket team was punished more than enough.
The Aussie cricketers were initially to be handed a ban of one Test match by the governing body International Cricket Council (ICC) for ball tampering but Cricket Australia (CA) banned the trio from all forms of game for a year, which was deemed harsh and unprecedented for an incident of this degree. I believe it was when the Aussie Prime Minister's (Malcolm Turnbull) quote that worked against them, which he wanted to appease the public for an upcoming election to his advantage.
8 baseball games is actually a lot.
Billy Ray Collins, the boxer, didn't "pass away" in a car accident. It was basically suicide. His life spiralled and his last words before that fateful trip was that he was going out to die.
Such a great Boxer.Such a tragic ending. RIP Billy Ray 💚
That's just tragic.
Cheating in non-combay sports is one thing but cheating in a sport like boxing when you know about the damage you can deal to someone and still going through with it is not just morally questionable, but downright demented and evil.
Yeah they didn't share a lot of the details on this one. There was plaster in the gloves. He was basically blinded. Couldn't box anymore, which was his livelihood. It was his life and he was literally cheated out of it. So he allegedly committed suicide.
There is a documentary on showtime about Luis resto and the aftermath it's a recommend watch
@@hgonz14 I'll check it out, thanks mate.
The lack of accountability is staggering 😳… There’s no sportsmanship whatsoever here.
That cheating scandal in aussie cricket was so hard to believe,it embarrassed the whole country
nah mate it was funny
After seeing the country's C19 policies, Australia deserves to be embarrassed.
@@LeFraudHasChokedInSIXFinals except it happened before Covid-19 but I don’t expect people like you to know better
@@animefan7424 I'm not referring to your sissy game and cheating team. It's Australia's notorious authoritarian policies regarding C19 that are the embarrassment of the entire world.
@@animefan7424 That doesn't change anything.
Lance Armstrong: The Cheater who got away with it. The money he made from bicycling allowed him to invest, gain more profits, and eventually allowed him to pay off the penalties incurred after he confessed.
Sick man his live strong armbands that every kid had and so many sick people looked up I remember my 5th grade teacher was obsessed then the scandal happened and her world was flipped everyone’s was
He wasn't caught on live TV though.
@@naedynot1 they never said he was or said that he needs to be on this list. they just pointed out that he's the cheater who got away with it
This is why squirrels should be officials...
Wasn't everyone else roided up as well? Didn't our roided up guy beat everyone else's roided up guys? Wasn't the sport god awfully boring without Armstrong? Tell me again how anticipated is this sport now that he is out of it? The only people that bat an eye now are the cyclists that like to take over entire car lanes on the highway and run stop signs as if traffic rules don't apply to them
When I was a kid we went to at least one mlb game a year and batting practice was always my favorite part because I could easily get close to the players and try to talk to them. I could never get a player to even look at me except once. It was the Rangers vs Cubs. I was a massive cub fan. I was screaming at everyone and couldn’t get any attention. All of a sudden Sosa walked out. I was star struck but knew if I couldn’t get the B team players to look at me he was going to be impossible. So instead I just yelled Sup Sammy! And that was it. He walked straight to me. For a 9 year old cub fan that was such an awesome experience. Much respect for that man.
Much respect for a man who egregiously cheated.
Yeah I did the same thing when I met “Babe Ruth” I just said hey babe wussa ax up wid you haaa? And he said to after walking over guess what ? In a thick mafia Italian accent mixed with bronx New York he said I run out of stick-um kid if u can go get me some from old Micky sticky fingers stickem gotti and I run as fast as a could and you know what I got the stick em and I also grew up to be the kid who got stickem for babe Ruth off of a NY GANGSTER DON HEAD OF THE GOTTI FAMILY. AND ALSO I GOT TO SLEEP WITH THE FISHES IM ACTUALY A GHOST 👻 👻 👻 🧟♀️ 🧟♂️ 🧟
I can't believe you left it the numerous cheating gigs by Tom Brady and the Patriots. The "Deflate Gate", reading lips of the opposing teams, obtaining their playbooks, etc.
obtaining their playbooks? I think your memory wires got crossed with an old episode of the Brady Bunch. Also, in no instance was he caught live on TV.
“ I am extremely sorry that I got caught and hope everyone buys my fake apology and tears.”
word lol
Competitiveness brings out the worst in people sometimes
Yeah my mum and dad compete to see who’s gonna beat me with the slipper 9/10 they ended up beating each other up or having wild sex so everyone can hear them yuk. So yeah competitiveness is not always a good thing mate
@@itrurelig1on759 that's rough dude!
Thought Lance Armstrong would be on here, the athlete I admired and brought me closer with my dad only to break our hearts. We flew half way across the world to watch that cheater race.
I may be a fool...but for some reason, I still don't believe it...I feel like someone has something far worse against him and made him say that...cause without his admission, you have nothing....everyone else was literally caught red handed...
The French organizers hated Lance and were constantly trying to get dirt on him. Supposedly the big evidence was an old urine sample from his first winning tour found years after that showed a minute amount of a banned substance. I still wonder if he actually cheated or if his methods were frowned on and blown up by La Presse. The guy survived cancer. He trained hard. It was said his crime was using transfusions of packed red cells to increase his oxygen usage and therefor increase strength and stamina. The thing is professional cycling has always been a tainted sport when it comes to PEDs. Eddy Merkx, one of the greatest cyclists ever, said that in the moderndays of cycling if you wanted to win you took something. He said it was nearly impossibleto ride that far, that fast in that time period without some help. It is not about winning but winning big! Get fame and money. Be adored. As long as the rewards are big then cheating will always be there. As for Lance, at the time I was big into long distance cycling and he was my muse. In many ways I don’t care if he cheated. He was exciting to watch and he controlled the peloton.
This is “Caught Live on Tv”. He admitted by himself that he cheated. He was probably on the juice then for a lot of his career but he wasn’t caught he for the most part turned himself in but didn’t get caught in the act.
And the people he betrayed and lied about on the way, destroying their careers. He should have had the book thrown at him.
Which is pretty hypocritical, since many of the other racers were doped as well. And whatever substance he took, he did pedal those races nonetheless, so it's not like he's a real cheat. IMHO he ended up the scapegoat of a sport teaming with cheaters. Why him in particular? Maybe he was a bit too arrogant, or he won too many times? Who knows.
With regards to Nelson Piquet Junior and Crashgate, it was him being fired by the Renault team less than a year later that indirectly led to the FIA taking another look. Around the 2009 European Grand Prix in Valencia, Spain, Piquet had spoken to then FIA President Max Mosley. In this conversation, he explained that it had been a deliberate act by the team to cause a Safety Car period, which combined with team mate Fernando Alonso having pitted just two laps before, which would mean that Alonso would emerge in the lead once everyone else pitted. As Ted Kravitz who worked with the BBC at the time said:
"We now know what happened, Nelson Piquet crashed on purpose, to bring out the Safety Car. This wasn't spying on other teams or lying to the stewards, this was endanger spectators, marshalls and his own safety."
With regards to the reference about "spying on other teams," the 2007 Spygate scandal deserves a dishonourable mention in my view. In July 2007, reports began circulating that Ferrari had hired a private investigator to look into how a document of confidential data regarding their car that year got into the hands of a photocopier in Woking, United Kingdom. It emerged that through contact with disgruntled Ferrari employee, their former Chief Mechanic, Nigel Stepney, the McLaren team's chief designer, Mike Coughlin, had come into possession of these papers and his wife had sent the paperwork for photocopying. Long story short, after initially denying that they'd benefitted from the data, McLaren revealed that they had in fact not only were aware of it, but they had benefitted from the data (for example,for Malaysia, they were able to predict when they'd stop for fuel and tyres). McLaren were given a very stiff penalty: the team (who had led both Constructors and Drivers championships at the time) were excluded from the 2007 Constructors Championship, the team (other than their drivers) wouldn't score any further points in the season, but the biggest headline grabber was the huge fine they paid. The team were fined $100,000,000
Then, another team (I forget who) stole plans from McLaren and got absolutely zip in fines because they didn't understand the plans.
Official: _"You guys are too stupid to fine."_ [probably]
@NarwahlGaming that was 2007. Dubbed "Spygate," it centred on disgruntled Ferrari employee, Nigel Stepney, sending his friend and McLaren designer, Mike Coughlin, over 700 pages of confidential Ferrari design details. With this, Coughlin took the plans to a photocopying company in Woking, Surrey, UK, to have copies of the data. However, the owner of the photocopying company saw the Ferrari details and tipped off Ferrari.
Long story short, after initially being cleared of wrongdoing by the FIA, a second trial in the FIA Court took place after further evidence came to light about how much McLaren were aware of the confidential Ferrari data (such as email exchanges between the drivers and Mike Coughlin himself), McLaren were excluded from the 2007 Constructors Championship, barred from scoring any more Constructors Championship points for the rest of that year and fined $100 million
They forgot to mention that most teams take note of signs with the Other teams and the Astros were just sloppy.
I was caught, I didn't mean to be caught, I apologize for being caught and I won't be caught again.
You missed two good ones. The first is Albert Belle who used to play for the Cleveland Indians. He was a power hitter whose numbers went up drastically one year and after hitting a ball the umpires were suspicious and took his bat to be checked out and locked it in the umpire's dressing room. While the game was going on one of Albert's teammates climbed through the ceiling tiles and dropped into the umpire's dressing room and replaced Albert's bat with one of their own. This however was found out.
The other one was the woman who won the Boston Marathon. I don't remember her name but it turns out that she took the subway to a stop not far from the finish line after starting the race with everyone else and then ran across to finish in first place. She was awarded as the winner until people started questioning how no one saw her past them for much of the course.
Rosie Ruiz
Lady literally took the subway 😭
@Bell Lyn Bays Rays Briel Lee Ant Tas how so?
@Bell Lyn Bays Rays Briel Lee Ant Tas You're not even trying to hide the fact that you're a child are you?
I dont buy the Albert Belle story. That dude was jacked his whole career, plus the players don't go anywhere near the umpires. But I dont know shit about marathons.
That first soccer clip is hilarious, always like seeing the tremendous acting skills of soccer players 🤣🤣
Football players r very good actors. they get a little tap on the legs and go down rolling all over the ground in pain them suddenely get up and start running around again as if nothing happened as they were faking it to try and get the other player sent off.
Before the premier league came along most players were getting paid the same as a normal working mans job paid. leather ball which was heavy. muddy pitches and if it was raining u couldnt even tell what colour the shirt was as they were all covered in mud. Very few fell over when someone looked at them and faked injuries.
Players loyal to their club and didnt move to other clubs for fame and fortune. some stayed with the same team their whole career Even when offerd stupid money to go to another team they said no im staying here.
Then the Agents took over and started selling players like slaves left right and centre just so they could get rich from the comissionn they got.
England were bad simply cause the manager was not allowed to pick the players he wanted he was given a list of teams he could pick players from. U could of been the best player in the world but if u didnt play for 1 of the teams on the list u wouldnt get into the England team. That was so the agents could persuade the players to move to a team on the list and make lots of money from it.
The Will Smith part had me howling 🤣
There are no REFEREES in BASEBALL. Baseball has UMPIRES. 😂
Someone who won fairly but is said to have cheated is Brad Keselowski. He actually got his win fairly, and Carl Edwards was just in Brad's way and tried blocking, but it was no use. He crashed and Keselowski got the victory.
Uh if we’re doing NASCAR shit it’s Bowyer 2013 Richmond lmao

@@bardthenascarfanaticdragon watch the in-car footage from that night in 2013. Bowyer spun on purpose. Wrecking someone who blocked you isn’t cheating lmfao.
Louie not only didnt have padding, but he had dipped his wraps in plaster of paris or whatever its called, and basically made his gloves bricks. He was pounding that guy with gloves with insides literally as hard as a rock.
The only thing that Steve Smith and his friends regretted was that they got caught, sadly the fact is that the Australian team had a rough time after their suspensions and when they became eligible for selection again, they came straight back into the side.
Some say cheats never prosper, tell that to David Warner and Steve Smith.
Poor bill conners bro, he was a underdog kid in age 22, after the incident in that match😢
Caught cheaters should be permanently remove/banned from the Sports!
Those apologies are BS!
They know what they're doing and what the benefits are! 😒
The Astros "won" the World Series because they cheated. Why are they not way higher? You put a flopper and a guy who moved sand above them. Come on.
Because the MLB knows every team has methods of stealing signs. They just had to make an example of someone. Still champs.
And continue to be a championship contender every year.
@@thomasacord6194 Even if you didn't reek of Trashtros homer, none of that has anything to do with why they aren't higher on the list. Which is what my comment was about. The severity of their cheating is worse than arguably the entirety of the rest of this list.
Make a post and cry about it pansie boy.
Stros lookin good this year huh
@@thomasacord6194 lmfao. Is that the best you can do?
The way Rebecca struggle to say Rivaldo's name made me laugh 😅
"accidental mistake", a mistake is a mistake, and an accident is an accident.
The "Hand of God" scored a goal. Or just Diegos hand. Goal still stands. Was fun to watch. Great video
I remember the whole Sammy Sosa cork bat fiasco as well as not enough padding in the boxing gloves. Now that was a real creep move. 10 rounds he stood and a tragic ending.
In South Africa, we have an annual race that I think is the world's oldest ultra-marathon (more than 42 kilometers). It alternates from Pietermaritzburg to Durban and vice versa, and is around 90 kilometers long. One year sort of recently a runner from the Eastern Cape finished in the top ten, earning, I don't know, 5 or 10 thousand dollars, or something like that. It turns out he was alternating with his twin whenever he took a port-a-potty break.
That's dirty times two.
Just a reminder that Pineda and Will Smith were suspended for more games than the players on the Astros that used systematic cheating to win a World Series.
You mean the SAME cheating method of stealing calls that most other MLB teams use?
@@hardieharrharr no other team did it that way stop
Until the championships are taken away, teams will cheat. That stupid, "If you're not cheating, you're not trying" garbage.
I think Germaine de Randamie should be on this list for hitting Holly Holm after the bell in two consecutive rounds when they fought in the UFC. I've watched many MMA fights and hits after the bell rarely happen, to have it happen twice in one fight, with really hard shots, with no point penalty, and then have Holly barely lose the fight on the judges score cards, where even just one penalty for the second offence would have turned the tide? I can't see it as anything but unpunished cheating where the cheater won.
I hear you but if you're going to talk mma then there should be discussion of Jon Jones and eye pokes (or steroids lol). Or tj and the epo.
Also Tyson Fury in boxing was caught cheating
"If you cheat, you'll never get ahead" -Dhar Mann
“Hold My illegal recordings”
- bill *beliCHEAT*
Shouldn't that be "if you DON'T cheat you'll never get ahead"? Seems like all the people on this list thought that way...
It sucks when you get caught so is it worth it, don`t cheat! Also Astro their wins will always be in people's minds as suspicious and will always be a scar on their achievements.
I recall a baseball game fairly recently (can't remember when exactly, nor between who) where two outfielders both went to catch a deep flyball near the rear wall, and they ended up colliding with each other so hard one was knocked unconscious and had to be carried off the field. The cheating occurred when the other got up, noticed his buddy lying unmoving next to the ball, and quickly stuffed the ball into his unconscious buddy's glove (all caught on camera) and tried to claim his buddy caught it before they collided. No one bought it, natch.
Every person that is caught cheating like what we have seen here, needs to be PERMANENTLY banned from any games. They are cheats and should be treated harshly. There is a LOT of money changing hands with these high-rolling games. But, athletes are a privileged group and get away with way more than the every day person on the street.
Number 19 is more of a "screw it il kick the ball" thing but yea some are just horrendous to just be scot free or just fined
if ur not cheating ur not trying lol
you know that the Australian cricket team got the harshest penalty of any ball tamperer, not one player that has tampered with the ball before or since will have a penalty as severe as that
@@cicjose6016 Did they still get to play?
We should make a specific set of these sports just for cheaters. Do like Respawn did with Titanfall cheaters.
"You wanna cheat? Fine okay, no no go ahead! It's fine! Oh btw, perma-set you to play with and only with cheaters. Have fun with your multiple complexes, you big idiots!"
There's so many other times of flopping being blatant cheating other than ferreira, dude just had a ball kicked at him
I would rather lose playing fair than cheating.when I'd play basketball with my friends when one of us would knock the ball out of bounds and they thought they were the last one to touch it I would always tell them it was me if it really was even though they thought it was them.i hate cheaters,games or people cheating on their man or woman.
I dont know why you'd touch a basketball with gunk. Literally every player will touch it over the course of a game. Do they think NONE of them will notice it?
I love how baseball players argue and get mad after they've been caught cheating....it's like a real thing 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 bruh you got caught like a child ON TV!!!
I remember #6 like it was yesterday. Sky Sports was in an absolute uproar after the match (how I got them here in the U.S. I still don't know, but I did), and frankly, I'm shocked there wasn't an actual war started over that handball.
There were really strong calls for the match to be replayed, but I don't think it would have helped. That Irish performance was singular in the Trapattoni era and there's no way it could have been repeated. I suppose if we'd qualified it would have extended his tenure as manager, which I don't like because his negativity seriously damaged both the national team and domestic league.
Top Ten Cheaters who Got Permanently Banned
Hansie Cronje would definitely make that list.
When they get caught cheating and then claim it was a mistake that makes the act even more egregious. Take responsibility for your cheating rather than trying to weasel out of your bad behavior
"#17 Will Smith" lol what? Had me going for a second there.
Apart from the hand goal, Maradonna was also offside. How did the linesman let that slide? It's beyond me 😂😂
It looks like it is the defender playing the ball there and it goes to Maradonna. Not a soccer expert, but I think that wouldn't qualify as offside. If the teammate had been the one to play it yes, of course, but it looks like he has both feet on the ground when the ball gets booted skyward.
The Patriots and Tom Brady should both be tied for #1 on this list
Deflategate. A bar here in Austin put "We don't serve deflated beer" on their marquee sign after that happened.
Imagine cheating in cricket
Yeah especially being that team who is the most successful in cricket and also the most dangerous one.
It's happened way too many times in the past.
It is argued that the damage inflicted by Luis Resto was in part responsible for his opponent's death in the car crash.
That moment when you're only sorry because you got caught. 12:36 That sounds like another infamous apology.
I used to be kinda blasé about ‘cheating’ until I went to the Baseball Hall of Fame, and I was surprised by own reaction to the history of people so devoted to the sport, they worked other jobs to keep playing. That clarity and devotion changed my cynicism about the cheating.
"Martin McSorley"...said NO ONE EVER with an IQ higher than that of a houseplant
Didn't the Astros win a chip from cheating?
Also screwed over Aaron Judge from getting the MVP that season.
I guess you were giving the New England Patriots the day off
Do you have any clue to how many NFL teams "cheat"? Do some research next time before you sound even more ignorant.
4:28 "In the aftermath, the players would seem unapologetic for taking part in the scheme." "I'm really sorry..." LMAO.
Did you see that Niekro toss the contraband?!
True, but that was a big emery board. If he'd been using it on the field, even Angel Hernandez probably would have seen it. Someone reviewing the game footage definitely would have and it would be included in all of these videos.
MLB officials are called umpires not referees.
Great video babbletop. Always great videos.
If you're in baseball and you're not cheating, then you're not in baseball.
Romo wasn't really a cheating moment. Every team at some point during a football game tries to get a first down by trying to spot the ball over the line.
And that Billy Collins story is just heartbreaking. He was clearly a good fighter and was basically being hit by cement and still went the distance. The people who cheated should of spent more time in jail they could of murdered him there in the ring. And affected his short life afterwards.
Cotto and Margarito should have been on this list also. Margarito loading his gloves really did a lot of damage. Although Cotto still went on to have a great career, he was never the same fighter. Always fought cautious after that. Oh wait, it wasn't caught on live TV. My bad, it was found out later that he cheated.
I agree...every football player tries to get those extra few inches to make a first down. I'm not a Cowboys fan but I thought that was more funny than cheating.
I am surprised A-Rod's glove slap in the 2004 ALCS wasn't on here.
This is so crazy. I have never even thought about cheating when i was playing college.
How did Tom brady avoid this list?!
Wasn't caught live on TV.
You broke the rules rules rules

I was expecting the Spanish Basketball team from the Paralympics in 2000 to be on this list. They were supposed to use players with mental handicaps but fielded fully fit players.
Would be nice to explain why some of the substances used in Baseball or other sports are forbidden. I dont understand the "Cheating" here.
You're right, they should have but I'll try to explain some. Pine tar is sticky, used to give pitchers an advantage by giving them better grip to have more control of their pitches. Same with the nail filer and sandpaper in Cricket as well. Sunsceeen is slippery which when applied to the ball and makes contact with the bat will make it slide off the bat making the hitters hit more ground balls. A cork in the bat gives the bat more power meaning hitting the ball further than a normal uncorked bat.
@@henny6566 thx, very much appreciated
@@henny6566 Sunscreen mixed with rosin though has the same effect as pine tar. However it's illegal for a pitcher to have pinetar on the mound, but not illegal for a pitcher to use the rosin bag, or to wear sunscreen. I think in the video it says the substance was sunscreen mixed with rosin.
@@DiamondPaintWithDiamondDave Sunscreen is banned in baseball. Well for pitchers at least. A pitcher cannot wear sun block. But it's a new rule and most of these incidents happened before it got banned so it might be what you said about mixing it with roslin.
I knew my Astros were going to be here!🤣
Yea after this whole thing I can never ever watch nor take baseball seriously. It’s a joke
As a massive Braves fan, I still can't shake the irony that Will Smith is now a part of our bullpen...and the fact that he's from Newnan, a suburb of Atlanta, makes it even more ironic.
Oh gosh calm down, that's minor compared to what some players and teams have done in baseball.
Sosa Jr be like "it would have been a homerun if it wasn't corked"
I love how emotionless the apologies are, athletes are the most selfish people ever
Especially with how much money they make, why would they even risk cheating
There are few things more pathetic than cheating 😂
Especially at a pro level. Like they are some of the best athletes in the world and they still resort to cheating
#7 not the first time the Aussies have cheated on cricket - there’s the infamous underarm ball from the Aussies to the kiwis to ensure they won back in the 80s
Well those kind of ball used to be legal, thank God it has been banned now.
But yeah Aussies were terrible
You can do a top 20 cheats for each sport mentioned here. Also Thanks to Letterkenny and Shoresy, this guy is liking Canadian Hockey.
It took so much coordination for the Astros that's what makes it so so bad
Missed Mike Tyson who deliberately punched opponents in the kidney/liver which is illegal in boxing, but referees let it stand
Doesn’t Ryan Garcia aim for the kidney? He’s open about it
How on earth is a liver punch illegal? It’s a standard body shot. Stop talking about things you know nothing about.
@@OrdinaryDude67 just reiterating what Mike Tyson said himself
@@princepariah6615 idk i just saw Mike Tyson openly admit it in a video
Next you'll be telling us it's illegal to punch someone in the face
Me seeing Tony Romo cheat as a Dallas Cowboys fan myself: ☠️
I believe Jimmy was truthful.
I'm also involved with youtube and our philosophy is that while we will do certain things to cater to as broad an audience as possible, there is a line where we have to say “this is the type of content we make, this is the tone we like, this is the feel we like, and if people don't like it we don't care but if they do like it, great”.
we focus on that and growing an audience who enjoys what we do rather than chasing people who don't like it.
So I think when he says he doesn't care if people watch, he means he doesn't care if people like the caller watch, or other people who call in to directly criticise the programming.
It's only a regrettable"mistake" when you get caught
5:01 May as well just penalize the entire world soccer league, lol.
You can tell how bad a player was or wasn't injured simply by reversing their reaction to the injury.
I.E. Silently falls down, they're hurt pretty bad.
Rolls around on the floor crying like a baby and screaming bloody murder, they're fine.
Fun Fact : Will Smith ended up playing for the Atlanta Braves 5 years later in 2020..and even played a big factor in the World Series for us the following season..Now we just sent him to the Astros this season..the team we beat In the World Series..So yes, Will Smith cheated against us, then he went to the team he cheated against, then beat the cheating Astros in the World Series, then got sent to the Cheating Astros😂😂..It’s funny how things come full circle.
Eddie Guerrero would love this
Can't believe Lance Armstrong wasn't on the list. He was the worst cheat in cycling history!
My guy all cyclists take epo. Every single pro cyclists. Almost all pro athletes in any sport dope. If there's money to be made in sports roids and epo are rampant
How did you make this list and not put Margarito? You've made other videos about him.
‘Who punched Tom Williams in the mouth? Tom Williams?’ Lmao commentator was on point.
"And I now understand the consequences..." which in many cases isn't much. The boxer was permanently banned, because he did real damage, the racer was banned for 2 years which is better, baseball players banned for 10 games? Not a huge deal. Disqualified from the match? I mean some cheating should be year long bans to really emphasize that you shouldn't be doing it.
If they're still getting paid while banned is it really a punishment?
When they said, Will Smith i was thinking... that wasn't cheating it was an "entanglement" 😅😅
Could’ve included “Spingate” from Nascar. Good vid regardless.
How was one of the worst cheating scandals in US HISTORY, ONLY 16th? That scandal helped the Astros win a World Series and helped them to multiple years of postseason success. It’s significantly more noteworthy than these single game accounts.
Resto was the worst, Billy Collins never fought again after that fight because of detached retinas and his life spiraled down into alcoholism. He died months later in a car accident.
Rivaldo started 20yrs of football players covering their face during fouls to get opponents either booked or sent off. For a player who was brilliant he will forever be remembered for doing this and causing 99% of footballers copying him
Scrolling TH-cam I stumbled upon this post on cheating athletes. First off I am not a sports fan, a writer or anybody special, except hopefully to my family. It baffles my mind how we, the people continue too support these cheaters, lying, thieving criminals. These so called professionals who not only rob us of our hard earned dollars but also strip us of our very own scruples at times. I could probably rant on. I have to feed my dog. Much more rewarding than giving any more thought on the matter. Thank you
None of these athletes are truly sorry.... They're just sorry that they got caught
