    3) Chris Byrd
    4) David Diaz
    5) Sergio Mora
    6) B.J. Flores

    Francisco Arce
    9) Hassim Rachman

    I wouldn't have De La Hoya on anyone's list. One boring fight his entire career.

    But I add Chris John from what I've seen.

    and with that list goes your credibility on this forum, David Diaz although being utter shit does try to exchange and make it a fight, Tarver is boring now, but he's had good fights against top opposition (both Johnson fights, and his first fight with Jones), Hassim Rahman used to always be fun, just wondering on how the fuck he'd get KO'd was always exciting lol, and the biggest WTF on your list is DLH, man was never really in a boring fight, and besides the Pacquiao fight, was always in a competitive fight, if you're expecting every fight to be Morales/Barrera, R.Marquez/Vazquez, Pacquiao/JMM, well dude you have no appreciation for the true sport of boxing....









    .....oh yea welcome to the forum

    Damn Master, you're a human boxing almanac. I guarantee you have a lot of these youngsters thinking you're making that shit up.

    Maske for sure.
    Ruiz no doubt.
    Let's not forget Michael Moorer.

    DLH - c'mon, that's rediculous.

    Byrd was actually pretty entertaining early in his career; it was once he tried to take on the real heavyweights that he put people to sleep.

    Couldn't disagree more with you on these 2.
    When I think of these 2 the word boring doesn't come to mind especially for Arce.

    I was not trying to be clever I have just had the misfortune to watch their crap fights.

    Name a more boring fight that Johnny Nelson v Carlos de Leon.

    And to have the referee object to the opponent of Sven Ottke hitting him too hard tells all you need to know about him.

    Hello,

    pick any 10 heavyweight fighters, name or not, from the last 5 years and you have a pretty strong list of the most boring fighters around. i remember there used to be athletes who would box at that weight...

    I rewatched Pac: Barrera 2 last night and was reminded of just how boring and tactical the fight actually was. You think of those two fighters as being so exciting to watch and the expectation for that fight was big for me, being a Barrera fan. Well, it was rubbish. No point watching it again really. I still think Barrera fought totally within himself and could have done a lot more. Manny Pac wasn't himself at all, but neither was Barrera.

    I don't regard those two as boring fighters though. Boring fighters for me include Hopkins, Ruiz, Wlad Klitschko and Taylor. There are probably loads of others but those guys stand out right now in my head.
