Great mentions here and could go a hundred directions. Off the top the refereeing Coggi vs Gonzalez 1 remains one of the most embarrassing and criminal manipulations committed by an official that I've seen live. The riot post Bowe v Golota. Tyson losing his shit knowing he was on way to tko and the bite. Tyson has gone a long way to reform and rebound himself and image, he's actually a hilarious dude who dedicated himself to the history of the sport and trail blazers before him, but he was also an asshole who tried to break a few arms and ball like a baby when he got out menaced. Twice biting a man to bait him into a lucky punch was a very sad act. Among top 5 worst moments you can put any 'need' to search and push something called A Great white hype. Ali v Holmes is up their sad. Hearing cheers when Kid Akeem was in obvious critical shape following the war with Robert Quiroga also. Lesser note would be the huddle of officials after Bowe fouled and ko'd Buster Mathis jr. Ref, commission members go out of there way to shield the live cameras. Arthur Mercante jr rebuffing Yuri Foremans corner trying to opt out and toss towel in for a badly injured and outclassed Foreman. Mercante like more than a few refs made it about himself and tried to atta boy speech to Foreman who had knees that were damn near swinging back and forth like a screen door. If a corner calls for a stop, that's it and it should be. Remember Chris Byrds campaign convincing himself that he could erase all the damage and years by dropping down to 175? Byrd grew on me as a fighter but he was unrecognizable and took an absolute beating.
