Who is the most Boring Boxer Today? zzz
Well we gotta have the anti-clone to other threads too. :)
LIST:
1) Ivan Calderon - Usually on the undercards they showcase this guy to extend the PPV time so that they don't have to offer more fights.
2) Floyd Mayweather - If you thought Baldomir was exciting, you better have been apart of Floyd's posse and fought Zab's entourage in the ring.
3) Winky Wright - Can anyone figure this guy OUT!!!!
4) Bernard Hopkins - He sells tickets, but I think many buy them because Bernard "The Executioner" Hopkins NAME sounds so threatening.
5) Almost every fighter in Heavyweight division. I'm not including Wlad here guys!
People that think Winky and Mayweather are exciting... haha, I will never understand you. YES you can appreciate the details they do and study them. But that's school work. haha Learning is fun and all.... but compare that to a Cotto Barnburner? ;D
NOTE: This is not a talent contest, only a bore-fest!
Every guy on his is extremely talented, besides list number 5.
Re: Who is the most Boring Boxer Today? zzz
I didn't think there could be a fight worse than when
John "the boring man" Ruiz is in the ring........
untill I saw the Briggs/Sergei fight....12 rounds of peaceful slumber right up to the last 15 seconds..too bad i was fast asleep by then..
But really nytol,gravol,warm milk,a hot bath and getting my back rubbed cant put me to sleep like John Ruiz

Haha, I would have had him as number ONE, but thank the boxing gods we haven't seen this guy on television for quite some time. ;) Briggs fight... now here's where I go wrong, because I thought that was entertaining... because I was amazed at Brigg's counterpunching skills. heh But yes, that fight was INACTIVE as the best up there.

I agree that Briggs had fast hands and good counterpunching.
But 3 punches /round landed!!! thats a joke! Two big mooks staring at each other round after round..it was a pathetic display!

Junior Witter is more boring to watch than all of those you mentioned.
Re: Who is the most Boring Boxer Today? zzz
To me guys Calzaghe bores me more than he thrills , Lacy was a chump and now hes fighting a tv guy with 2 losses dont bother knocking on the hall of fame door Joe your division stinks , talk is cheap unlike tickets to your fights :)
Later chaps -Al the truth
Re: Who is the most Boring Boxer Today? zzz
Jermain Taylor is making his way up there... I wasn't the least bit impressed or entertained in his fight yesterday and Ouma was an opponent he should have been able to at least make for an entertaining fight against.. I know his fight with Winky was fairly good to watch, but mostly because Winky was able to effectively pressure him.. I still can't see why Winky gets so much bad rep for being boring and Taylor is thought of as an exciting fighter...
Re: Who is the most Boring Boxer Today? zzz
every heavy weight u can name..there all fucking boring!

The only one I agree with is #5 other then that the guys mentioned aren't your 1 punch KO artists..... But they excite if your into technicians who like to break a fighter down.
Example: Calderon doesn't hold almost at all and he doesn't run. He moves and just almost boxes to perfection it's exciting to see someone NOT HOLD and NOT RUN but yet still box a masterpiece.
PBF: Holds & Runs.
Winky: I can see why you think hes boring BUT if you pay attention and notice how he conducts/predicts the pase of his fghts is just insane how he makes fighters follow his lead.
Hopkins: Well in his early days he had some really nice KO/TKO's and towards the end of his career he became the smart throwback fighter, he does hold a lot and in his 2 fights with Taylor he looked aged....
Heavyweights: I think the only one thats exciting is Wladdy at the moment....
