Best Examples of the Silent Agreement

Mayweather mcgregor

maybe lot of Harry wills round robin bouts. Unless I totally misunderstand what the silent agreement is lol

 

Audley Harrison vs Danny Williams was pathetic, at local regional level

 

Tyson v Bonecrusher??

 

Ray Mercer tried to make a verbal agreement with Jesse Ferguson, who declined.

 

Lots of guys that fought Wlad Klitschko. He was happy to jab all night and win on points. Guys that came to KO him generally tasted the counter right down the pipe and decided that they'd rather eat the jab than go out on a stretcher.

 

Jonathan Banks vs Seth Mitchell 2?

I think I know what you’re getting at, maybe.

 

Back in the "good old days", when boxers had a much busier schedule than today (and therefore less time to recuperate from a hard fight), I think it's reasonable to assume, that not all fights were fiercely contested!

Whether it was spoken or unspoken, there must have been some sort of agreement, not to go too hard on each other... so everybody could live to fight another day, and that way bring food on the table. Of course not all fights were like that - but there were probably a lot of them back when 100-200 fight careers were the order of the day.

I bet someone like Langford carried a lot of opponents - and indeed some of his fights (Jack Thompson, Porky Dan Flynn, Jack Blackburn, George Cole) ended with both men being thrown out, when the sham was too obvious.

 

So unsilent that we the audience can make out certain bits said during the fight which is amazing as the audio quality is straight up dudu on the lone source all posted versions seem to be ripped from

 

There probably wasn't a silent agreement between DLH and Trinidad, but I can sure see why someone would believe that.

 

Mayweather vs Pacquiao.

Greg Page vs Tony Tubbs.

 

Got it in one!
