Re: Poorest Title Fight Performances
comments
Sullivan vs Corbett--I don't see a 34 year old lasting 21 rounds against an undefeated challenger the worst of all performances.
Dempsey vs Tunney (1926)--Same here. Dempsey at least hung in there and actually carried the fight to Tunney, even though he was outclassed. Certainly not the worst.
Baer vs Braddock-Baer was always overrated in my opinion. Yes, a really bad performance.
Patterson vs Liston (1962)--my pick as the worst performance of all. He seemed frozen with fear.
