    With all the talk of a possible Mayweather vs Matt Hatton match up, what is the biggest most outrageous mismatch in boxing that you remember?

    Fights that you basically would have no qualms about staking your entire house, savings and belongings on.

    I can remember lots of mismatches from the past. Nothing on this scale though. Mayweather is taking the **** out of the sport i love.

    True! Marquez had to go up two weights and Floyd came in heavy as well.

    I thought Mike Tyson vs. Buster Douglas was, before the fight.

    I remember thinking that Mayweather/Gatti was going to be a blowout. It was even worse than I imagined.
