    Wladimir vs David Haye gets my vote. Height, weight and reach advantage, promised the knock out, fought shamefully cautiously and held on for dear life or ran backwards when Haye threw punches.

    Frankly embarrassing from a guy who his fans claim to be an ATG heavyweight.

    Second to that I'd probably have to go for Wlad vs Ibrigamov. Heavyweight unification at the Mecca of boxing, did nothing but jab and grab for 12 rounds. Was so cowardly that the crowd booed throughout and Wlad was barred from HBO.

    My third nomination would be Vitali vs Byrd, a super heavyweight against a blaon up super middleweight, suffers an injury we've seen numerous fighters fight on with but quits. Embarrassing.

    My final nomination would probably be Adamek vs Vitali. Big heavyweight fight at home in front of his countrymen, tasted a jab or two and decided to backtrack for the rest of the fight, averaging 9 punches a round. Spent the last two rounds looking at the ref to stop te fight.

    Just adding my two cents.

    Being this obsessive clearly isnt healthy, someone should intervene before something terrible happens

    I am slow to call any fighter cowardly: anybody who gets in that ring and reaches a high level is not cowardly in my view but going on single performances, Spinks looked scared against Tyson, as did a few others. Harrison vs Haye was the first to come to mind, was probably the worst HW performance that I've seen.

    I suspect Liston II was more about corruption than cowardess.
