    Byrd-Williamson. The ref was begging them to mix it up a little. Begging them!

    Chris (Rapid Tire) Byrd vs. Davarrl (Touch of ****) Williamson was the most boring fight I've ever seen. Calvin Brock vs. Timur Ibragimov sucked too.

    i felt sorry for dirrell after the fight. he knew of stevens knockout power and knew this was going to be on hbo and a knokc out on pay per view is a career killer.

    and where as stevens has this arrogance dirrell is a humble family who coincidentally was an undefeated supermiddlewieght boxer.

    and if he won against stevens he said he was going to get a contract.......


    sadly his fight plan was to get on to his toes...then run for 3 mins and then repeat...:D

    Any Ruiz fight, except for the one with the Tua man, and Lennox Lewis
    VS Henry Akinwande.

    Dude.. that's an awful excuse. His first fight on HBO should be more reason for him to showcase his skills. Instead he runs and guarantees that no network would EVER put him on again.

    I would say Audley Harrison vs. Dominic Guinn...Harrison fakes the jab backs up..Guinn fakes the jab...backs up.

    Anyone remember Chris Eubank v Ron Esset in Portugal, around 1992 when Chris was defending his WBO belt?

    It was originally called 'the treat in the heat,' but after the fight, was re-named 'the bore by the shore.' Rightly so as well.

    I was there in Quinta do Lago, Almancil, Portugal and it really crossed my mind to name it as one of the most boring fights ever. Ron Esset was a homeless bum and Chris was there just for the Summer performance to all the british tourists in the South of Portugal. Never Again.
