    I spent $44.95 last year on Ibragimov-Holyfield. As boring as the main event was, the co-feature (a cruiserweight fight... can't remember the fighters) was even worse. One of the most boring fights I've ever watched.

    Yeah and it was on in the middle of the day. Which to me made matters worse.

    I don't think Gatti vs Mayweather was a ripoff. The shock value of the beating Gatti took and the timeless performance Mayweather gave, it was worth paying for.

    I paid for Rahman Vs. Barrett in '05

    and nothing since then has felt like such a scam as that "slugfest."

    Winner.

    I couldn't believe that. I really couldn't.

    At least Dick Turpin wore a scarf when he robbed people.

    Really? I thought 15 quid to watch cocky Khan get knocked the fuck out in under a minute presented fantastic value for money

    (No I didn't buy it lol)

    probably floyd vs oscar the world awaits...that fight single handidly had so much pressure on it to be an incredible fight but floyd jr just backed up all night and pot shotted to victory.

    the hype was this was the fight to save boxing, and it did more harm then good in casual fans minds.

    Tyson-Sanders exhibition. I cant believe I actually paid to see that. The other fights were complete garbage too.

    ODLH vs Fraud G@yweather Jr.

    PacMan showed how a real pound 4 pound champion beats up on an old man.
