    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.

    haha that made me laugh as I instantly thought back to his barnburners with Evander and Chagaev and have to agree he is possibly the most boring fighter in the history of boxing.

    And yet becuase of his height and freakish appearance he's still kind of compelling.


    In regards to De La Hoya, maybe the OP is just saying that Oscar as a personality bores him to tears, which to be fair he does me.

    Can't deny he hasn't been in some great fights but I just have no interest in anything he has to do or say.

    For Arce I recommend you watch:

    vs. Fanni
    vs. Cordoba
    vs. Hussy both fights
    vs. Choi
    vs. Carbajal
    vs. Castro both
    vs. Alvarez
    vs. Makepula
    vs. Rojas
    vs. Concepcion (contender for FOTY, last yr. IMO)
    vs. Vic

    For Oscar:
    vs. Valenzuela
    vs. Maywethear (Jeff)
    vs. Avelar
    vs. Paris
    vs. Carter
    vs. Molina
    vs. Rivera
    vs. Quartey
    vs. Leija
    vs. Gatti
    vs. Vargas
    vs. JCC both
    vs. Carr
    vs. SSM both fights
    vs. Campas
    vs. Mayorga

    who said Michael Moorer?

    Moorer at Light Heavyweight was a beast, was a world champ and moved up to become the undisputed heavyweight champion by beating Holyfield.

    He is in a class with Spinks and Roy jones Jr in that regard. Why would anyone say he was booring?

    Are we talking about current fighters?

    because that list up there for the most part must stand for the fighters last fights or something and not their entire career.

    Unless De La Hoya vs Quartey was a snoozefest...

    moorer vs cooper

    I'm gonna say Whitaker at 135. He was so dominant that after the 2nd round you knew he was gonna win, it became a matter of would it be a ko or decision... & more often than not it went the distance!

    Whitaker was a great fighter but never really created any excitement because he was so much better than everyone else!

    I think that is Jorge Arce's resume there Mick...He said Francisco Arce (Though he is mot even near world class caliber to even consider to be on the list of guys considering he is not a mainstream fighter for the opinion to be debated)...

    Now if it was Jorge Arce and he was on a boring list then I would suggest watching a new sport for him

    I don't know what's funnier.
    The fact that "Panchito" Arce is in ANY type of list in a boxing board or the fact that I thought it was Jorge...
    Thanks Daxx.

    Ha Ha ha ha...Don't worry I actually went to boxrec to do a double take thinking Jorge might be Arces middle name and his first name was Fransisco and all these years I was missing something......

    I don't even know who the hell Panchito is

    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.
