Fighters who couldn't control themselves in the ring.
I just saw James Butler sucker punch Richard Grant again, after their fight, on a different site.
That's the kind of out of control act I'm thinking of. Refresh my memory if you can.
It was funny hearing Joe and Teddy blow their gaskets again.
The James Butler incident is probably the worst thing I've seen in boxing. A lot of guys have been all kinds of scum out of the ring, or even hit their opponents out of the blue at press conferences etc, but that was way more sickening. Butler did that simply because he lost, not to mention how much worse that made it for Grant, having been dead tired and completely off his guard.
Zab Judah was a real piece of shit back in the day as well, wouldn't have put a similar act past him, the way he went at Jay Nady after the Tszyu fight. Usually even the worst personalities in boxing have some modicum of class in defeat, if they don't that's a real tell imo.
In the modern era Resto and Lewis must be the number one villians. Bobby Frankham did a British version of attacking the ref in the late 1980s.
As much as Tyson was a hero he was also a villain too. Biting, elbows and trying to break arms.

Terry Norris punching an opponent over the refs shoulder springs to mind. Also:
- Golota going cup crazy and biting fighters.later caught impersonating a cop.
- Bowes 2 piece at the Donald press conference was pretty $hitty...
...gotta love karma on those last 2 ;D
Shortly after that fight he moved into Sam Kellermans house and then killed him with a hammer. I'm not a death penalty sort but....
I'll never forget that. It was amazing how Max held it together.
floyd mayweather, convicted woman-beater, did a little time for one of them thought there's been about 6 different women over the years took beatings.
roger mayweather, another convict, also did time for battery-strangulation on a woman.
floyd mayweather sr, another convict, sentenced to 5 years for drug-trafficking coke and crack.
Y'know, that old scoundrel floyd senior tells the story of being shot in the leg by a family member while he was holding little floyd as a baby. Didn't tell the whole story. When he saw he might be shot, he picked up little floyd and was basically using the baby as a human shield to save his own mangy carcass...
Ike Ibeabuchi. Gad-dam NUT !
Carlos Monzon. He killed his wife, threw her off a balcony to her death.
The late Edwin Valero. Another gad-dam NUT !
Biters. Has to be one of the worst desperation moves between the ropes. Seem to remember some man-shark named Caicedo (?) biting John John Molina a couple damn times. As far as dirty, Ross thompson has to be one of the dirtiest I've seen. Agapito Sanchez drives the bus!
Saw Jeff Franklin twist Gabe Ruelas arm like a chicken bone and snap it, accidental maybe...
Cliff Etienne...homicidal maniac trying to have shoot outs with the cops
Margarito and mayorga are the ultimate villains.. I like villains.
