    Haye v Bellew.

    Haye had come back fighting scrubs, the casuals where back on board and he'd been hanging around Bellew fights like the proverbial bad penny hoping for an undeserved title shot.....only for him to be found flopping around the ring with a stupid look on his face......got everything he deserved.

    They way Rigo quit against Loma was SO humiliating. Got to be my pick.

    If Rigo had gone out on his shield like a true warrior, I would have gone with Haye-Bellew. Especially after all the trashtalk and the "First time i land its over!", "Bellews life is in danger!" etc.

    But at least Haye fought on like a man. Rigo on the other hand...

    Haye-Bellew for me, Rigo-Loma wasn't humbling at all, for one Rigo was moving up and Loma is a great fighter, no shame to lose to him, even in the fashion he did. Sure, the quit job was kind of disgraceful but I'm not too bothered.

    Haye-Bellew on the other hand, Haye's the guy who's perceived as more talented, way bigger and he lost, not only that Haye was acting like he's going to KHTFO prior to the fight with no problems.

    It’s definitely Loma schooling Rigo. That Twitter Troll Guillermo hasn’t typed a tweet since! :)

    This was Rigoblins last tweet. Lol

    I, too, struggle to see how Brook was humbled. He took on the division's danger man, a guy others would've avoided, when he could've been forgiven for vacating and moving up. Did he fall short of his vow to send Spence packing? Sure, but why would anyone expect a fighter to publically doubt himself? He gave a good account of himself in defeat. I'd like to have seen him try again to hang in there in the 11th, but it could be I'm just being an ass - it's not my health to risk, and there's no immense shame on him in how things went down. Kell gave just about as much as he could.

    I picked Loma-Rigo as Loma forced him to pathetically capitulate.

    McGregor. He was supposed to expose boxing as a sport which was easy to master. He was supposed to beat a plastic hard man in Mayweather and he was supposed to KO anything he hits clean.

    In reality he was that poor at the noble art that the defensive "runner" Mayweather stood right in front of him all night used the most basic of defences a high guard and let McGregor tee off before following him around the ring and punching the head of him.

    Not only an embarrassment for McGregor but an embarrassment for boxing in general

    The Conor / Mayweather fight was a total surprise though. Never expected that result.

    Floyd should have blanked him in the first 3 instead of going life and death for 10 rounds ;)

    McGregor was embarrassed by the way Floyd kept rubbing his ass on his todger. It was a bit ... fruity

    I disagree totally, everyone thought the match up was a total joke and Mayweather, one of the best of all time would toy with him or KO him early. What happened instead was that McGregor gave a good account of himself for the beginning portion of the fight until he gassed, he even took Mayweather out of his comfort zone and forced him to kind of brawl instead of box. If anything for me that fight gave credence to his argument and put boxing in a kind of bad light.

    Sillayk did some brushing his shoulders type taunt at the weigh in of his fight with Papin.

    Papin Ko'd Sillayk and did the taunt back whilst Sillayk looked dead on the canvas! Haha.

    :risas3: Sugar ''Money'' Mac scored the biggest event win in the history of the sport and combat when he fought ''TBE''. He was 0-0-0 in the sport of boxing and he had absolutely no right being within a 15,000 mile radius of a lop level boxer if there was a ring and 2 pairs of gloves located somewhere within it. But he not only managed to last into the 10th round against the 2nd best boxer of his generation, but he actually managed to win every round, land some classy counter punches and totally out slick them while he still had air in his lungs. It was absolutely horrendous watching Floyd embarrass our beloved sport and all the legendary warriors that came before like that. I'm not ashamed to admit that I cried myself to sleep for weeks after witnessing that debacle.

    To quote a great man

    ''Sugar ''Money'' Mac made ''TBE'' and boxing look whack''
