    List them.

    -The moment that inspired me to make this thread: Amir Khan trying to talk to the crowd at the Hatton-Pacquiao weigh-in, while they're booing him. He was obviously hoping the presenter would just move on to the next guy, but instead he had to keep answering questions.

    -Mayweather Jr-Hatton post fight press conference: Mayweather singing "there's only one Mayweather" in a really bad voice, and the lyrics were even more cringeworthy

    "there's only one.....mayweather
    there's only one.....mayweather
    he talks the talk
    and he walks the walk
    walking in a money wonderland"

    :patsch

    -     Samuel Peter shouting "I'm the heavyweight champion of the world, WHO NEX!?" in what was supposed to be angry voice.

    -The intro to the Wlad Klitschko-Hasim Rahman fight in Germany, with suited musicians playing violins. It looked like an evening at the opera.

    -Everytime Hopkins and Calzaghe met, starting from the combined failed attempts at trash talking ("i'll never let a white boy beat me" vs "fight me and you lose man"), right through the weigh-in and the fight itself. I'd actually told a lot of people about the fight and I felt like I fool when the fight took place and the people watching it with me kept looking at me waiting for an explanation (I was sitting there with my scorecard trying to look like there was something to score).

    anything this camera mugging, fame-loving ******* does is cringeworthy, like saying the willie limond fight proved he had a good chin.

    Don King sitting at ringside, how is this ******* not dead?

    Frank Warren sitting at ringside, same as above.pity Marsh isnt as accurate with a gun as he was with his fists.

    Naseem Hameds smile.

    Hatton hitting the dirt...OUCH that was a classic.

    Nice job coming up with some new ones other than the same old Tyson ones.

    Norman Stone: "I didn't say nothing to that guy." What an ass. Entertaining, but an ass.

    2 rounds of cringe: Rahman vs. Mario Cawley. The cringing starts at about 2:00.

    The opera singing and violins in Germany was for the Vladimir Klitschko Vs. Derrick Jefferson fight. Vlad knocked the 6 foot 6 inch Jefferson out in the second round.
