    Thank You Mr. Red Cobra:hi:

    I think a 'Stinky' can go more than 1 Round.

    Muhammad Ali threw alot of 'Stinky's'
    vs. Buster Mathis
    vs. Rudi Lubbers
    vs. Chuck Wepner
    vs. Alfredo Evangilista
    vs. Antonio Aoki
    vs. Ron Lyle (The first 8 rounds were dull)
    vs. Jimmy Young (10 rounds virtually no action)
    vs. Joe Bugner I
    vs. Joe Bugner II
    vs. Mac Foster (He only fought hard in 3 rounds)

    Yeah, I think the worst stinkers are definitely longer than 1 round.

    Tyson-Smith of course.
    Louis-Godoy was pretty bad, though I've only seen highlights.
    Ali-Young
    Lewis-Tua
    W.Klitschko - Ibragimov !
    Most John Ruiz fights
    Valuev-Holyfield
    Value-Haye

    Ernie Terrell vs. Doug Jones (Absolutely unwatchable)

    The biggest 'Stinky' ever.
    Muhammad Ali vs. Buster Mathis
    This fight was broadcast on National Television.
    The fight was so bad, half-way though the fight the Network affiliates pulled the plug and went to other sports events.
    They came back, and allowed Round 11 and Round 12 to be shown on live TV.

    Muhammad Ali,,,,,'The Greatest',,,,,,,,,,,,,,EEECH!

    I though both Louis Godoy fights were pretty fun to watch.

    Clips of Fireman Flynn doing his human billy goat act against Jack Johnson are not particularly edifying viewing.

    I didn't mention it purely out of politeness.
    I mean, that didn't just stink, it reeks and lingers and induces vomitting even now.
    Worse thing is, it smelled almost as bad as soon as it was signed.

    I agree about "Tyson-Spinks." That side-arm right from Tyson that offed Spinks for good appeared to have glanced off Spinks head just before Spinks went down on his back.... UGH!

    Good call there... Akinwande looked good in wasting dudes' like Jeremy Williams and Alex Zolkin, but then holds and clinches Lewis to death prior to getting DQ'd by Mills Lane.....

    Well at least you can see Tyson nailing Williams with a wicked hook that decks Carl "The Lie" Williams on his ass in round 1... The only stinker there is referee Randy Newman stopped the fight on the quick side... Albeit, Tyson was gonna dust Williams at that point, but Williams should've been allowed to try and carry on or survive the opening round...
    :shock:
