does bad disipline mean bad intelligence to you. you no. a fighter nos what to do but is mental.

Someone needs to mention him, so: Golata.

As for not listening to a corner, Litzau is a recent posterboy, but it might be too early to give him any sort of "all time" status.

Similarly, I don't know enough about Conn to say if his one massive miscalculation with Louis was enough to put him on such a list. I assume you're looking for more consistent gaffes such as the Foul Pole.

 

no. not exacty. like taylors bad disipline ignoring trainer. though taylor might be unintelligent. fighters who no better but ignore better.

i think bad disipline. in ring. this thread is a bit about that. i think. disipline intelligence in ring the same?

I'd add Zab Judah. Golota was a good mention.

 

Lyachovich has the reputation of not listening.

Going way back to Tuesday Night Fight I remember Manny Steward saying to James Solarno "can I say one thing before you start talking."

Riddick Bowe hit after the bell at least once, causing a wild street fight gasint Elijah Tillery.

Anothony Hembrick dancing for 20 minutes and getting his ass kicked by Booker T Word.

Ah, the Tuesday memories.

Bert Cooper quitting any number of times.

 

.......During every fight. :yep

 

Terry Norris was a brilliant fighter but he could be stupid beyond belief in the ring.
Whether it was his getting complacent after one round with possibly the hardest puncher ever in Julian Jackson,or making what should've been an easy fight against Troy Waters into a life and death slug-fest,Terry's lack of ring smarts are plain for all to see.
Add to these brain fades his silly game plan for the first Simon Brown fight or his ridiculous DQ losses to Luis Santana and you have a compelling case for Norris as the least intelligent fighter ever.

 

I love you Beaker avatar !!:thumbsup

 

The award has to goto Gatti the way hes there to be punched, doesn't cover his face, the way he trys to box Mayweather instead of pressuring the smaller man, thats if were talking prize fighters

Having said that Gatti has some skills - punch technique is excellent, he can even slip punches

I was think Mayorga but Mayorga fought a smart fight against Forrest in what he attacked if nothing else

But honestly the LEAST intelligent fighters dont get to fight on the world stage, you have to develop rings smarts of some sort to get on the world stage

 

That is probably the funniest boxing quote I've ever heard. Cheers!

 

I'd say Jess Willard was a bit of a simpleton.

 

I would've thought he was just very,very ordinary.

Then again he kept getting up after Dempsey nearly killed him,which showed great heart but little common sense.

 

Jack Sharkey was known as a guy who somehow managed to blow big fights with foolish mistakes in the ring. He turned away from Dempsey to complain to the referee. He blatently fouled Schmeling in a bout in which he got off to a quick start and was doing well. He also seems to have lost his head in the first Carnera bout when he dropped Carnera, but that one didn't cost him.
