    For me it'd have to be Mitt Romney vs. Evander Holyfield.

    That was a comedic exhibition for charity... Had a good chuckle when Holyfield threw himself to the canvas.

    There was this fight at school this one time.

    Let's call the two guys Steward and David. Cause those were their names. They stood around with a big crowd at recess shoving each other for twenty minutes about some utterly insignificant ish. Shove, shove, shove. Oh yeah? Oh, yeah. Eventually people started falling asleep and graduating while this was going on.

    But time is running out.

    Soon, the bell will ring.

    Then!

    Then, David reaches back in slow motion behind him, right to the floor, and throws the most telegraphed haymaker I ever saw in my life!!!

    Steward reacted by watching the haymaker like a moron and getting hit flush in the eye. He did a pirouette and fell to the floor and they revived him by pouring coke on his face.

    The End.

    Audley Harrison vs Danny Williams. (Trying to watch this fight in its entirety truly was a wretched, wretched business.)

    Charles Martin vs Anthony Joshua. (For Martin's entrance while wearing a gaudy crown, and for his subsequent fistic non-showing, more than anything.)

    Then there was that time Oscar De La Hoya fought Shaquille O'Neal in an exhibition. Just so very cringey:

    luiz ortiz vs malik scott, 36 minutes and not 1 significant punch landed, just ortiz slowly chasing scott as he jumps and runs around the ring - was horrific.

    I Lol'd so much when I read this. :lol:

    When I pictured the above in my mind's eye, I thought the finish to Marciano-Walcott I and Ali vs Foreman ... Only in super duper slow motion. :sisi1

    Do you think those two guys will ever have a rematch, or at the very least re-enact their classic battle at a school reunion? ;)

    I can top that. Chris Byrd vs Davaryll Williamson, 12 rounds of boxing FOR A WORLD TITLE and no threw a meaningful punch. Total embarrassment for the sport of boxing.
