    Mickey Bey vs Miguel Vasquez was awful. Vasquez was also robbed, as tradition dictates.

    Fury vs Vlad

    Press conferences and build up was far more exciting

    Definately a no action fight and all the hype and build up behind it sure didn't help

    Yup until the 12th round knockdown it was easily worst fight ever.

    This, Fury vs Wlad is the yardstick by which to measure boring fights. Watching it can cause nausea and headaches
