    If you really believe K9 is the worst title holder ever, you are a certified dumb ass. No debating it.

    You really want me to list out the plenty of guys that have done worse than wins over Spinks X2, Powell, Zaurbek and Ouma.

    That said, who in the hell throws punches like Bundrage does? Absolute joke when it comes to technicality and punch form.

    First Cory Spinks' wife, and now this thread? K9 can't catch a break! lol JK

    He was champion for a reason. Maybe not the greatest champion ever, but still a champion.

    :yep
    At mininumweight you can be 1-1 and be rated in the top100. You just have to be that tiny

    Wasn't K9 just replaced by the same type of fighter? And always bawling too.

    :lol: Probably not the worst of all time, but he's certainly attrocious when it comes to the technical aspects of the sport.... it also boggles my mind how the idiot couldn't land a big name opponent seeing how vulnerable a champion he was.

    I still prefer his punching technique over Calzaghe..... that said there have been worse champions for sure.
    Also why hate on the guy.... all he did was just try his best.

    Mad respect to him also for not giving any excuses and giving Ishe his props.

    He's not even the worst junior middleweight titlist. That "honor" goes to Luis Santana.

    K('s aesthetically displeasing...but, then, so was Mayorga, and he remained viable for quite some time. Personally, I think K9 deserves props for going as far as he did given when he had to work with.

    Comparing K9 to Mayorga is a joke!

    Prime Mayorga would have knocked the living **** outta K9.

    Also, the prime version of Spinks that beat Mayorga, would have shut out K9. The Spinks that K9 beat was a corpse.

    Doesn't matter.

    Fact is, like Mayorga, K9 found a way to overcome technical deficiencies, become a titleholder, and actually make a couple of defenses. And the fact is, K9's title reign is infinitely more credible than Luis Santana's. The only joke is if you think that isn't the case...

    Don't hate on boxers dude. It was K9's dream to be a champ as well. He is a human being. Just say that the better man won and move on.
