What is the worst fight you have ever seen?

We always do "best....." threads,I wanted to try something different. Do you remember any fights for their lack of quality,for being poor etc. The first fight that springs into my mind was Tarver RJJ 3,probably the worst fight I have ever seen. RJJ barely threw anything,was there to survive,fought scared(and what made it worse was that I once though Roy was literally superman) and Taver. a guy who made his name of a (literally) lucky punch against RJJ,he threw in single digits most of the time,then when he did hurt RJJ,he nearly knocked himself out because he in such terrible condition,stringing together 5 or 6 punches before almost falling over/dying from a heart attack. A truly truly horrible,awful fight.

audley harrison vs danny williams

Chris Byrd-DaVarryl Williamson
Joe Calzaghe-David Starie

Two awful fights

Oh boy. Let's see....

Chris Byrd - Davryll Williamson
Dominic Guinn - Audley Harrison
Jose Luis Castillo - Rolando Reyes
Demetrius Hopkins - Mario Ramos

Those are the Final 4 imo. The 4 that stick out in my mind.

henry akinwande vs lennox lewis

james bonecrusher smith vs mike tyson

The Liakhovich- Briggs fight has to be up there. They basically stared at each other for the first 11 rounds.
Holyfield- Ruiz III
Hopkins-Hakkar was pretty bad

Oh my gosh,is that the Hopkins fight with Merchant giving him that famous interview after the fight? I did not have the "pleasure" of watching the Briggs fight!

Really? I thought this fight was comedy genuis :P

I just had the unfortunate pleasure of witnessing wlad vs Austin

Briggs- sergie..

Jones - tarver III

For me there was tito - camacho.. Camacho just kept holding for the best part of the fight and tito got really frustrated and was hopelessly looking for a ko which was never to come..

On a different note..People are mostly bringing up the boring fights..

But i also would mention Duran - Joppy..

Ive never been able to give joppy any respect since i saw him take a pointless victory against an old out of shape duran..Hardly fighting back and knowing a prime duran would have murdered william joppy on his best day

hasim rahman vs. monte barrett



there is no way that a fight could be any worse

Im sure some people will remember..

But Pbf - Baldomir

I had convinced myself that baldo had a chance and that it was potentially a great fight and though i couldnt bring myself to stay off the sight i stayed off everything strictly boxing and confined myself to the lets get it on board so's not to hear the result before i got the fight by post about three four days later on dvd...

And when i saw it i was VAAASSSTTLYYYY Disapointed ::**
LOL...Sod's law!!

Junior Witter v Colin Lynes/Chop Chop Corley. They should use those fights at guantanemo bay, that'll make em talk.

Ha I was convinced that Baldimor wouldn't land a punch on Mayweather and cracked possibly the best joke ever heard on this forum that afterwards Baldy could go back to his feather duster business but could also sell nice mop and bucket sets with Floyd Mayweather's picture on the side with an endorsment saying 'Floyd Mayweather wiped the floor with me'!


Unfortunately nobody laughed then and I doubt they will now :(

Hahaha..You earned a cc for that my man!!

Yeah the Byrd - Williamson fight was on the same night as RJ - Tarver III I do believe. I know it was Showtime's answer to a big HBO card. Not sure which one.

But it was not only attrociously bad, I think it was a bad decision. Byrd had about 4 rounds in that fight where he did ANYTHING at all. I honestly think he went rounds without landing a punch. Either way, even though Williamson didn't put a thing behind his pathetic excuse for a jab all night, I think he won the fight.

That bout was on the undercard of the Toney - Guinn matchup and it made that one look like the Thrilla in Manila! It's the only fight to ever completely cloud my judgement of another. I honestly felt Guinn showed himself nicely and thought it was an exciting fight. I was delerious :-\ I downloaded the fight a few months after and was shocked at how ordinary of a fight it was. I could have sworn there were fireworks.

Baldomir VS Gatti is a recent one that stnk the place up....The rope spring boards by Gatti were odd as all hell

I liked that fight :-\ Both were trading fairly well and had Gatti possessed more power the fight would have been a lot more even. It was a bit of a disappointing fight but I wouldn't call it a bad fight.

I dunno. I seen a lot of bad fights. Juan Urango vs Ben Rabah was pretty horrible recently.

I quite enjoyed that too, but at the same time it was extremly depressing seeing Gatti with no fight left in him.

He had plenty of fight just no pop. You could see he was reaching. But he is just past it :-\

I didn't like Lennox-Tua only because I thought it was gonna be fireworks and Lewis fought so cautiously, smart, but cautiously, it was just so anticlimactic.

Anything that Ruiz was in, unless he was getting KO'd...


Also, Ice Cold Boxing mentioned Lewis/Akinwande and Bonecrusher/Tyson - excellent picks. These fights were probably the worst I've ever seen.

Tua/Lewis sucked ass as well. Lewis has been in some terrible fights because he takes no risks. Both Holyfield fights were dull as hell...

Briggs-Serguei, IMO is the worst ever.......

yep had the misfortune of seeing that one live on ITV

some guy vs some other guy .............. 2 guys fighting for sandwhiches and they dint seem hungry

Seen heaps of crap undercard bouts, but one I was really disappointed with that sticks in my mind is Bobby Paquiao stopping Carlos Navarro. Navarro actually keeled there counting along with the ref! What a sh*tty excuse for a fight!

Lewis-Tua.

Got together with a few buddies...... got the beer ready..... got pumped up for what promised to be a slugfest of epic proportions........

and proceeded to fall into a coma from sheer boredom somewheres around the 5th round.

I later heard that Lewis had won a UD.

:cwm33:

You got pumped up with a few buddies , got the beers in and then fell asleep ?

Are you sure it was the fight that made you zzzzzzz...?

cc haha great comeback

The #1 reason why I'd never be a successful boxing promoter,
I would've given their money back to anyone who paid for the Rahman - Barrett fight.

CC back. Like the saying goes: "Don't play with fire, if you don't want to get burned."

;D

Lewis vs Mcall II. Haven't seen anyone cry in the ring like that before.

McNeely Vs. Tyson, Holmes Vs. Butterbean

Mark Gastineau agaisnt anyone he fought

danny williams vs fraudley harrison 1 springs to mind for me now. it was hyped by the fact that the pair hated each other and it looked be a good domestic match up. ended up being a snooze fest with fraudley running away all night and not wanting to exchange and danny came in looking like a black butterbean and getting knakared from chasing harrison around for 12 shitty rounds.
