    I recorded it off ESPN last week and started watching it and said to myself "Self, what the hell did you record this POS for anyway? You must have better things to do than watch this sparring session again" So I just deleted it and moved on

    Hence why I am saying the fight mentioned was not dull but in fact very good.

    I remember it was like a controlled sparring session where Tete attacked and Narvaez was only allowed to defend. Dull

    Tua v Lewis may not have been the most boring but def most disappointing for me

    never saw that one but probably the dullest fight I’ve ever viewed was Michael Nunn vs Marlon Starling.

    Cassius Clay vs Doug Jones.

    It has been a while since I watched it but I remember thinking...geez is anyone going to take a chance?!

    For some reason Carlos Monzon comes to mind. Perhaps I am confusing his very basic style with boring matches.

    Randall Bailey-Mike Jones right up until the KO
    Plenty of Wlad fights...more than what's fair to mention in one post
    Hopkins-Jones II
    Ali-Young

    Watching Haye flop for 12 rounds vs Wlad was awful. Hopkins vs Jones 2 was absolute ****

    Hugo Corro vs Vito Antuofermo, World Middleweight Title bout on June 30 1979, from Monte Carlo, Monaco, Vito won the title by a split decision, all Corro did was turn his back on Antuofermo, while Vito clubbed him on the back.

    Don't you enjoy watching the Kingpin put on a masterclass of shoulder rolling and parrying shots for 10 rounds against young prospects hahaha
