    I don't have a list like you guys, because I love the technical guys like Cory Spinks and Floyd Mayweather.

    But there is one guy who I hate to watch... John Ruiz. The excessive clinching drives me nuts. There is an art to what Mayweather and Spinks does. Theres no art to Ruiz's style

    I dont like Ruiz either and if Mayweather and Spinks got ran over by a truck I would not lose any sleep. But they are good.

    I'm not even gonna list heavyweights cause if I did at least 7 or 8 of the people on my list would be heavyweights. Can't think of one I like to watch fight

    Raheem
    Derrick Gainer
    Jermaine Taylor
    Terrence Cauthen- no list can be complete without a guy this boring
    Montell Griffen- he was alright for a while, I do like technical boxers, but he literally throws like 3 punches a round
    Carlos Baldomir-
    Vernon Forrest- what a horrible, horrible fight Baldo-Forrest will be
    Rolando Reyes
    Ishe Smith
    Brian Viloria

    Oh and Rocky Juarez bores me, and even though he's such a likeable guy, I can't stand watching Glen Johnson fight.

    Yes. He has become the Rocky Horror Picture Show! I give him an honerable mention in my complete article. Cauthen is a great pick as well.

    Floyd Maweather jr. vs. Arturo Gatti (Highly entertaining fight, IMO. Mayweather landed some nice combinations, in a 6 round dominating performance.)

    Floyd Mayweather jr. vs. Diego Corrales (Another dominating performance by Mayweather, that featured five KD's of Diego Corrales.)

    Floyd mayweather jr. vs. Philip N'Dou (Mayweather stands and trades and takes more shots than we are used to seeing from him.)

    Floyd Mayweather jr. vs. Emanuel Augustus (Some great action here, with Mayweather once again deciding to stand and trade rather than jab and move)

    Floyd Mayweather jr. vs. Demarcus Corley (Some nice action in this one as Mayweather landed some very hard shots)

    I watch PBF vs. Gatti on a consistent basis. Watching Gatti take all those shots and keep coming is pretty entertaining. A fight doesn't have to be back and forth like Corrales and Castillo for me to find it entertaining. PBF landed enough shots in that fight for both him and Gatti. Has PBF has some dull fights, absolutely, but he has also had some pretty good ones too. I don't think its fair to say that he is as boring as say a Zahir Raheem or a Cory Spinks. They're have been several fights where Floyd has stood his ground, traded with his opponent and came out on top.
    His fights against Carlos Gerena and Jesus Chavez were also very entertaining, just to name two more.

    I always love it when someone says something like "Floyd's never had an interesting fight" or "What fight of his would you repeatedly watch?" When people make statements like that, they're basically just proving that they know very little about his career and haven't been paying too much attention to the sport of boxing.

    Great list. I included Mora in my Artcile piece. He is one boring snake. His fight with Erik Regan should be shown to criminals as punishment!

    8. Zab Judah ( I just love to hate him)
    9. John Ruiz
    10. John Duddy ( needs to fight bigger names....to cushioned)
    I think you got least favorite and least exciting mixed up. Judah is a lot of things but boring isn't one of them. Same with Duddy and Calzaghe.
    I thaught this was an opinion.

    Your tripping if you think Duddy is boring, he was in a foty contender...what the hell?!? He hasnt fought the best opponents but hes only at 21 fights. Theres alot more people with more wins that have fought lesser opposition.I know thats your opinion but I cant let that slide on my favorite fighter
