Just rewatched Briggs vs Kltischko and started thinking what was the most one sided fight ever?

    Jeff Lacy vs Calzaghe?
    Vitali vs Briggs?
    Mayweather vs Gatti?
    Holmes vs Ali?

    Or have you got any other suggestions?

    it was only one sided because Klitschko had once again picked a shot fighter to face as a defence.

    If he'd picked a live skilled body, theres no one sidedness at all in his resume.

    That fight is a good example of how boxing shouldn't be, corner must have throw the towel by the 8-9 round. There was no point in letting Briggs continue, since then he developped the let's go champ syndrome

    Ali had Parkinson`s against Larry and Briggs was old as hell against Vitali.

    Briggs suffered from a bicep tear in that fight. It's pretty much impossible to fight with one arm only.

    Even then Vitali couldn't knock out Briggs.

    Jones vs Calzaghe turned into one of the most humiliating fighhts of all time, at one point Joe was standing in front of Jones with his hands down and a befuddled Jones didn`t know how to hit him, as he marched forwards wit his guard up he missed all ovder the place and got peppered with shots, having daid that he got hit much less in that fight when he had his gloves up than when he had them lower.

    Different class, lesser fighters than Vitali knocked out Briggs when he was in his prime.

    Lewis was rocked in that fight, it was an exciting fight and Briggs one claim to fame, Lewis looked wide open in that fight!:confused:

    I know, Ali vs Holmes should have never happened but it doesn't take away from the fact it was incredibly one sided.

    As for as one-sided fights that went the distance go... Vitali vs. Briggs is a great example.

    Kovalev vs. Hopkins was pretty one-sided. In all honesty I gave Pacquiao 11 out of 12 rounds vs. Bradley in their first fight but somehow Bradley won... far from the most one-sided distance fight I have ever seen though.

    Was that the fight where Lewis was rocked, turned and ran into the corner?

    Calzaghe v Lacy always springs to mind.
