    Leon is good to watch and will probably drag a better fight out of Norton than Askin or Dickinson would have.

    For bad fights williams vs chisora has to be up there given how danny was so shot he could barely stay balanced, but if you mean poorest quality of the protagonists then it wouldn't be...

    Sorry for the lack of information, but:

    About three years ago there was a title fight that was reckoned to be the worst ever. It was at one of the lighter weights, for some reason I've got in my mind that it was in Plymouth and all I can remember about it is that both fighters went down at least a dozen times between them without a single knockdown. Can anyone tell me who it was?

    Yeah, memorable notion about what is " boxing fight " with good promoter and managers: 90% standup wrestling attempts = boxing fight.
    LOL.

    If I remember rightly Ian Lewison vs Dillian Whyte was for a British Title, that was pretty dull, two lumps slogging it out until the end with Lewison eventually just jacking it in
