lamest world title fight

[erics44]

lets just include WBA, WBC, WBO and IBF

whats been the worst example of a world title fight in this era multi belt/multi world champions?

[erics44]

Chagaev v Browne has to be right up there

[powerpuncher]

brewster vs meehan when meehan should have gotten the decision to become the worst HW champion in all of history by far.

[Maravilla2012]

Devon Alexander vs Randal Bailey.

[birch]

Naseem Hamed v Said Lawal

[Bill Paxtom]

Cassius Clay

Pure British-Trash from London's garbage heap.

Everyone was laughing at this comical farce.

K-9 vs Spinks?

[Spicoli]

I can think of about 3 in recent memory, ironically all involving Ishe Smith

[SlimTrae]

Hopkins vs Morrade Hakkar.
It should have been a serious travesty that this guy was ranked. But the fight was so darn funny to watch- linked it somewhere on one of these threads.

DLH vs Campas, that was a glorified sparring match. I really wanted my money back for that garbage PPV

Seldon vs Bruce Hipp Seldon literally won this off a jab. Amazingly Hipp looked like he'd been thrashed, but all it was for 10 rounds was jab-jab-jab clinch. repeat process.
Hipp had been knocked out by Smokin Bert Cooper, Tommy Morrison & a nobody, yet he beats journeymen Jose Ribalta and got a title shot- joke of a HW title fight.


fres Oquendo vs John Ruiz- DAMN! This was the most clinch-riddled-coddled fiasco I've ever seen in my lifetime. The best part of the fight was when the ref stopped the two and reminded them: they were in a prizefight- not because of tactics, but because at the lack of punches thrown. When Ruiz landed no one saw it--we were too busy entertaining ourselves.

Valuev vs haye- A commentator SAID THIS: This is pish, I'm off to watch Audley Harrison's greatest fights on DVD," B.S. fight.
David Haye: landed 98 out of 143 personally I thing that's rubbish haye landed 8 per round? Rubbish I think more like 4 per round.

Nikolai Valuev: was credit for landing 64 nuff said about that- wait! Oh, haye claimed he hurt his right hand.. Ok he's prone to baby pinky and baby toe damage in HW title fights.

[La Cucaracha]

Rigo vs Sod

[mikeeod]

John Ruiz vs Rahman and Ruiz vs Golota. Those fights made me cry. They were horrible and I forced myself to watch them like an idiot. Whenever I feel like I'm starting to get full of myself I think about what a moron I was to torture myself like that and it brings me back to reality.

February 27, 1971

'vacant' WBA Light-Heavyweight Championship

Nothing says keeping a mere trinket warm like being called "heavyweight champion" and defending on the undercard of a Tyson comeback For whatever he wasn't, Seldom had a killer piston jab and beat Tucker up the same way. Hipp was a good dude. Talk about maximizing your short comings. Repaired knees and a face made of wet and still raw stuffed ravioli? His war with Morrison belongs in a best of time capsule, and he revenged his nobody twice

[Bill Paxtom]

Larry Holmes vs. Muhammad Ali

Everybody knew that Muhammad was going to get a major 'ass beating' on the big stage
for all the World to see.
