What Boxing Incident Would Have Caused the Biggest Uproar on This Board?

What would have set this board off more than anything else?

Without a single doubt in my mind the JCC-JT I, stoppage would have and 'till this days causes havoc when the subject comes about.
Thats what I voted for.

The way you said it, now I'm convinced, so I chose it too.

Hard to say.

Would have loved to see the ear biting incident in a Wacko DRBR. Perhaps Wacko might like to honor us with a golden flashback to that one ;D .

Given the almost godlike status of Roberto Duran around here, I'll say No Mas.

Good thread! cc

I voted for the ear biting.
What about these.
Tysons loss to Douglas?
Lewis v Holyfield 1 decision?
Mccalls tantrum?
RJJ Ko'd by Tarver would have to rank with No Mas.
Any others?

I think all 4 would have caused the board to shut down with the 'server too busy' page popping up, but I'd have to say Hagler-Leonard, because that was just such a mega fight that had been anticipated basically for the entire 80s. Just think of all the hoopla leading up to DLH-Mayweather, now multiply that by 15, and that's what Leonard-Hagler was. That decision would have just been the icing on the cake of a time bomb of arguments for days on end.

I would be arguing that Hagler won that fight!!! I just watched the Legendary nights for that fight last weekend. It kind of made Sugar Ray out to be a villian...dodging Hagler, refusing him his shot, only to retire. Then he comes back and expects Hagler to jump at the chance....I love that Hagler blew him off at first. Antofermo was a bs decision too. I am gonna play the racism card on that one....Dalby Shirley was the culprit!!! That guys is ridiculous, I always cringe when I see he is judging.

I agree it's gotta be No Mas. I can just see now SaltheButcher and Hulk constantly calling Leonard a pu$$y :D

where's the Jack Johnson-Jess Willard, did he take a dive or not....that would have been a HUGE topic.

Don't quite think the internet was around then numbnuts.

....oh but it WAS around for the NO MAS fight.....oh sorry dude, I didn't have a connection for my Commadore 64

Please tell me that Al Sharpton av is in jest because if it isn't there are going to be a lot more problems between me and you

I voted for the ear bite. There are so many avenues for debate here it's ridiculous. For instance... was Holyfield headbutting Tyson on purpose?


CC, Clean.

Nice question

It's between no mas and tyson for me. I could see a bunch of threads started for either entitled "What The Fuck was that? I voted no mas because no one likes to see a guy just quit like that but tyson bitting holyfields ear could be just as big.

Has to be Chavez v Taylor stoppage for me cos like CMM said we're still talking about it now!

If your talking about which incident is the most sensational, the most outrageous it'd be between No Mas or the ear biting Tyson, but I tend to think us lot are real boxing fans and to this day JCC v Taylor stoppage is a huge topic of debate.

:coolclick: for a great topic!
