    After watching Canelo Lara I was wondering what where some of the worst fights that you have ever watched with two big names that just stunk up the joint ?


    For me :

    Delahoya / Whitiker

    Bradley / Alexander

    Hopkins / Holmes

    Maybe not really "big names", but over here they were big, and their fight bored the **** out of me : Bute vs Pascal

    Solis vs Thompson.
    Was hoping for a fun match, but it is the worst match I've seen this year.

    Oscar De La Hoya vs. Felix Trinidad. Such a disappointment.

    Sugar Ray Leonard-Roberto Duran 3. One of the worst fights ever.

    Mike Tyson-Bonecrusher Smith. People said Smith should have changed his name too Boneclutcher.

    Mitchell vs Banks 2, I know they're not big names but that was an awful fight.

    taylor spinks was turrable. made more so by the fact that pavlik miranda was the fight immediately preceding it.

    I thought Lara vs Alvarez was a very interesting fight. I rarely complain about fights being tedious but Mathew Hatton put me to sleep(literally) when he fought on the undercard of Ricky Hatton vs Juan Urango. I also find it extremely frustrating to watch Clottey and Dawson.
