AJ vs Parker result: "Worst Heavyweight title bout of all time"

What does "worst" mean? Least entertaining for a casual fan, or worst actusl fighting?

This was probably the best boxing performance both guys have done as professionals. They were both at their best and both were showing excellent defence and countering and due to both of their ring IQ they identified were they were likely to be countered and had to plan their moves. Both took risks and both stayed in the fight.

Funnily enough where both guys are a similar skill level and operating at a high level the guy with the better physical attributes creeps into the lead. It was a controlled and tactical match. No one made huge mistakes and no one had enough of an advantage over the other to completely destroy the other one.

 

Summed up perfectly

 

I've seen worse but it was pretty much a boring affair. The real problem is this fight was over-promoted, over-hyped, and these over-produced weigh-ins press conferences are getting ridiculous. Not to mention the tumult of media in pre-fight build-up with endless inane tweets, interviews and analysis. Then put a bow on the pile of crap with ridiculously over-orchestrated ring entrances and you literally get fan fatigue even before the first bell rings.

 

That was actually a very skillful fight from both.

 

Exactly,

 

Well Tyson fury boxes the ears off aj whilst tormenting and jeering at him all night long

Aj big ko man persona is fading fast

Aj won last night but he looked flat as a pancake doing it and he still looks bamboozled by a bit of movement

 

Watch Holyfield vs. Valuev if you want to see a terrible fight.

 

Skillful bout where neither combatant took one risk. It was a flat fight sorry for anyone who thinks differently. And the scorecards were putrid. 11-1 really. Garbage card and garbage ref. And a snoozer of a fight.
No it’s not the worst hw fight ever, these two guys are to talented for that compared to some of the previous guys to hold belts but it was a massive disappointment.

 

Wlad vs Fury was the worst HW championship fight ever

 

It was very low on excitement but far from the worst.

It wasn't too long ago Wlad was stinking it out regularly in Germany.

 

Hardly , Wlad vs Povetkin was 100 times worse. Then you have the awful Sultan fight and the slightly less worse Haye fight.

The majority expected AJ to gas in the last third of the fight, but he did not, so tactically he fought a good fight, now adding the WBO belt to his collection and tens of millions richer.

Was it a slugfest no, was it a fight filled with 2 boxers supposedly hating each other and wanting a body on their record, no, it was a fight which was measured and controlled.

The AJ money making machine continues, as lets be honest that is what it is all about 'The Money'.

 

I don't agree, Longhorn. It was a good, not great fight. A lot of tactics going on in Parker's head, wishing he had a punch to go with his movement. On the other side of the ring, the Robot King had nothing but a wild uppercut and three judges on his payrole.

 

Last night was certainly one of the most boring HW title fights I can remember, really boring. A lot of those 70,000 that bought tickets won't be back I don't think.

 

Wlad has plenty of stinkers too. Usually because he was so dominant of a champion.
This was different because neither guy took a risk when there really wasn’t much separation of ability between the two fighters. I mean neither guy showed any urgency in a fight that many ppl felt was close, it was strange, was either guy concerned they might be trailing? Big let down but no not the worst.
