    Yeah man! One of my favourite WTF moments.

    BTW - I think Bowe-Holyfield was a great trilogy, I was being a dick.

    It wasn't that bad.

    Terry Norris vs Luis Santana was a fairly dire trilogy.

    Certainly ranks up there in the most pointless trilogies of all time.

    Possibly the worst ever was the Alan Minter/Jan Magdziarz trilogy; the first two bouts were horrible stylistic match ups, the but the finale went down British boxing infamy:

    For three rounds despite numerous warnings from referee Harry Gibbs, neither took the lead, and the action consisted of a few feints. In the fourth, after one final warning, Gibbs left the ring, and went back to his dressing room, later clarifying he had disqualified both fighters for not trying.

    Not bad fights but after the first rematch they really didn't need another, Molitor won fairly clear from what I remember seems the IBF were going to keep ordering this until Ndlovu won.
