Let me start off by saying as of right now, I'm the worst boxer I know. ;D
And as you may have figured by now, I like lists.
With that aside, whether it be from your real life, amateur circuit or professional boxing of the past and present, who are(were) the most devastatingly terrible boxers that you know?
Sven Ottke, how he remained undefeated is beyond me.
There are always a few for God knows whatever reason stand out. I remember a bummy scrub named Jerry Arzenten (?) who would come out in a dog collar, his hair was all matted and he literally looked like he rolled out of bed, or off of his couch. You see some dudes and just have to wonder "what the hell are you thinking" as far as getting in their. We saw a guy on last weeks Fnf that fit that bill ;D I was seriously waiting for Ashton kusher to walk out yelling "you got puuunked" into the camera.
Oh and Valuev. He was the shit. In a 2AM drunken Taco Bell dinner kinda way :-X
I've watched a couple of his fights (Yes, all 50+ minutes of them). My god, he must be laying with pigs to get those decisions!Quote:

In all of his so-called "gift wins" Ottke has a case for winning. People need to actually watch his fights instead of going by others opinion. Ottke was involved in a bunch of close fights. Him being the home fighter I'm sure help him out. But they were close fights more than giftsQuote:

The guy was completely useless aside from being a giant, I was always hoping we'd get to see Vitali knock him out. Will also never forgive David Haye for not doing so as I believe he was well capable of.
You are right bud, in a word he was SHIT.Quote:

Abraham Okine boasted he saved a woman's life by taking on a lion with his bare hands....
but he couldn't box for shit. Shannon Briggs toyed with and thrashed him. Okine did indeed have the heart of a lion at least.

I think that Andrew Hartley could easily list for the crown; 2 victories on super dubious opponents, around 30 defeats via KO all in the first or second round, that's something.
Wow!Quote:
