Post vids where possible.
I'm not sure on the best or worst, but I'm pretty sure I know the longest. Valuev against Haye was about 30 mins long I swear. Had a band playing their greatest hits or something like that.
What's your favourite?
Which is the worst or most cringeworthy ring entrance?
Hate ring entrances, prefer Tyson style no music get in there, knock out and get out of there.
this one is hard to top for me:

Proper rope a dope.
Remember John brown coming to the ring dressed like an Ewok or ferral bear one time ??? What the he'll was that
John ruiz. Running full steam into the ring...like he can't wait to aww the fans with his awesome skills.
That's how you enter in style!Quote:

I thought Hattons fat suit was funny.
What was the entrance where the boxer came in with this high school feel to it with these jocks and everything and balloons everywhere, only to get knocked out?
I thought Wlad's, as recent as his fight with Samuel Peter, was fantastic.

The Muhammed Ali tribute.
Naz's vs Wayne McCullough is cheesy as fuck but always makes me laugh:

Biggest debacle off inflated ring entrance here. Wish the entire intro-fight was available but it was ALL like you see at beginning...popping,marching,talking to friends in home town crowd and dancing his azz off was undefeated Olympian Anthony Hembrick...
And then the bell rang....:angryxo4:

How did the ref not stop that after the first two knockdowns?
The final knockdown, the guy ran across the ring and twatted him while his hands were at his hips!

I always used to like it when they played that Hokey-Cokey for Tony Oakey, and the whole crowd would start dancing.
Yeh he was out on his feet. Think being the hyped hometown favorite got him an extra 'chance'...and thumping.Quote:

Honourable mention to George Foreman -v- Muhammad Ali, when he jogged to the ring as if he was so desperate to destroy Ali & get back to the USA. Of course, it never worked out that way for him.
Some guy was carried to the ring in a coffin, think it was an old espn show. I think he was wearing a cape too.;D All of Naz' cheesy entrances.(stupid magic carpet) Monte Barret failed flip over the ropes was pretty funny.
I was just about to mention monte barrett, lolQuote:

NOTE TO SELF - heavyweights should never attempt to jump into a boxing ring at full speed ;D;D;D
https://youtu.be/qRB1WWaaK7o Need an entire compilation of Paez intros ;D
I do agree with @Andre in that the music that Tyson came out to in the Spinks fight is the best ever. That combined with his police protection and massive entourage that guided him to the ring. Tyson's requested to come out to "noice"...Quote:

I like Nigel Benn's entrances as well. Simply coming out to the chimes of Big Benn. There beauty in simplicity

I think one of the worst entrances was Tito Trindad's against Hopkins, For one he's probably the only black man that can't dance and then he enters the ring like a rockstar. He was like a cross between the Village People and a male Stripper and the people were goin' bananna's.
Then he proceeded to have his ass handed to him for 12 rounds then got KTFO lol

Mayweather's entrance against Hatton was unintentionally funny. He wanted to hit a patriotic note, and he chose Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA" which is one of the most anti-American rock songs ever.
