    Default Fighters who wear their trunks up too high.

    Chris Eubanks, think it cost Benn a victory in the second fight, it is unfair.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    De La Hoya vs Vargas

    It wasn't so much his trunks that were high, but his body pad that was ridiculously high. The ref should have done something about that.

    edit - I'm talking about De La Hoya's trunks btw

    Yeah, I think De la Hoya is the biggest culprit of this....although one should mention John Ruiz in the Johnson fight. Kirk would try to attack the body and Ruiz would push Kirk's head down and the punch would land south of the belt.....one of the poorest refereeing jobs I've ever seen by someone not named Laurence Cole...but then again Cortez reffed that fight so I'm not surprised

    De la Hoya easy. There's a hilarious picture somewhere on the web of the second ODLH-Mosley fight, right after the verdict was announced, with Mosley celebrating and ODLH dejected, with his pants like touching his armpits.

    Paul Williams.

    Foreman post comeback like Match said is who came to mind first, but De La Hoya did it a lot too. I think Williams just has no hips so his trunks ride up.

    Lennox Lewis easy for my opinion altho yes Oscar does wear his trunks quite high as well.

    In the NBA I think you'd have to throw Ron Artest into the mix...

    You do sometimes see a referee point out what he considers belt line when giving instructions in the ring, the problem is the judges don't always comply with it.

    Lewis against Holyfield. When he came into the ring all you saw was the top of his trunks almost touching his nipples.
