I wouldn't have De La Hoya on anyone's list. One boring fight his entire career.
But I add Chris John from what I've seen.

and with that list goes your credibility on this forum, David Diaz although being utter shit does try to exchange and make it a fight, Tarver is boring now, but he's had good fights against top opposition (both Johnson fights, and his first fight with Jones), Hassim Rahman used to always be fun, just wondering on how the fuck he'd get KO'd was always exciting lol, and the biggest WTF on your list is DLH, man was never really in a boring fight, and besides the Pacquiao fight, was always in a competitive fight, if you're expecting every fight to be Morales/Barrera, R.Marquez/Vazquez, Pacquiao/JMM, well dude you have no appreciation for the true sport of boxing....
.....oh yea welcome to the forum
Re: Most boring fighters list

Damn Master, you're a human boxing almanac. I guarantee you have a lot of these youngsters thinking you're making that shit up.
Maske for sure.
Ruiz no doubt.
Let's not forget Michael Moorer.
DLH - c'mon, that's rediculous.
Byrd was actually pretty entertaining early in his career; it was once he tried to take on the real heavyweights that he put people to sleep.

Couldn't disagree more with you on these 2.
When I think of these 2 the word boring doesn't come to mind especially for Arce.

Re: Most boring fighters list
The new version of Taylor has to be up there,that didnt used to be the case,but it is now
Re: Most boring fighters list
who said Michael Moorer?
Moorer at Light Heavyweight was a beast, was a world champ and moved up to become the undisputed heavyweight champion by beating Holyfield.
He is in a class with Spinks and Roy jones Jr in that regard. Why would anyone say he was booring?
Are we talking about current fighters?
because that list up there for the most part must stand for the fighters last fights or something and not their entire career.
Unless De La Hoya vs Quartey was a snoozefest...
moorer vs cooper
YouTube - Bert Cooper vs Michael Moorer Part 1/3 SLUGFEST!
Re: Most boring fighters list
I'm gonna say Whitaker at 135. He was so dominant that after the 2nd round you knew he was gonna win, it became a matter of would it be a ko or decision... & more often than not it went the distance!
Whitaker was a great fighter but never really created any excitement because he was so much better than everyone else!
Re: Most boring fighters list
As far as today,I have to go with Spinks.Just does nothing for me.Maybe Yuri Foreman,excellent pure boxer but the crickets can be heard above the crowd
Virgil Hill....had a few surprises but mostly stick and move,rinse & repeat
Derrick Gainer
Keith Holmes
Larry Donald
Greg Richardson
Melchor Cob Castro
Richard Frazier
Sven Ottke
Lonnie Smith
Henry Akiwande.....he may belong more so in the fugly category
Re: Most boring fighters list
The one and only John Ruiz.
Chris Byrd
Winky Wright
Cory Spinks
I know I will get alot of hater's for this one but Bernard Hopkins.
All of these guy's have been mentioned but they are the top dog's for the most boring fighter's
