A lot of good stuff like this is mentioned on www.weirdboxing.info could be worth looking and seeing what they've mentioned recently

 

ear bite,fan man and the fighters mom jumping in the ring are tops.

 

Floyd draining Canelo to 152 when he is the 154 super champion (that is correct, no?)

 

Doesn't anyone remember when Carlos Navarro counted himself out in his fight with Manny Pacquiao's brother Bobby on Friday Night Fights in 2005? I can't forget it because it was the most pathetic display of cowardice I've ever seen from a boxer. I recall Navarro was knocked down from a body shot, got up, but then didn't make an effort to fight when the referee resumed the fight. He then intentionally fell to the canvas, but the referee called it a slip. I remember he pounded the canvas, which the ref probably thought was out of frustration for slipping, but was in fact Navarro's frustration that the fight wasn't stopped. So then because the referee didn't get that he was looking for a way out of the fight, Navarro took a knee, pulled his mouthpiece out, stared at the ref, and in a mocking voice... counted himself out with the referee!!! Of course fighters have mentally checked out and quit in the middle of fights before, but the way Navarro bailed out of that fight was the worst mockery of the sport. And probably the most bizarre thing I've seen in almost 20 years of watching boxing! I wish I could find the fight or a clip of the ending online.

Navarro was actually a really talented technical boxer who should have accomplished more, but that fight showed that talent is nothing if a fighter doesn't have the mental makeup to put it to use in a tough fight.

Can't believe I joined just to post that!

 

i once saw a fight end and when they were annoucing the winner. the loser punched the other guy and knocked him out. I think it was on friday night fights. not really odd but def funny

 

That would be James Butler. But that was sickening rather than odd and not funny at all.

 

Brian Sutherland.

 

The Japanese fighter that came to the ring in a gold Lame robe prancing around when they removed his robe he'd forgotten to put his trunks on LOL

 

Butterbean.
