    Most of Wlad's ''fights''. Especially vs Rahman where he was doing jack**** instead of brutalizing and destroying him in 1 or 2 rounds.

    Audre Dirrell vs Stevens was absolutely terrible. I think Lederman said it was the worst fight he has ever seen.

    That's the one that got him 'Blacklisted' on HBO if I remember rightly, you're right he embarrased himself.

    I just watched the last few rounds.:patsch

    Even worse than I remember. Dirrell is a disgrace.

    After the fight when the crowd is booing him the Glass Hearted fraud starts screaming "I don't care I got paid like a mother****er.":lol::rofl:patsch

    Well I hope that HBO or Showtime never show this fraud again because he has burned his bridges with both networks.

    Gamboa's and Donaire's last efforts were awful. Especially considering they are P4P fighters facing smaller, past their prime, overmatched opposition. Couple with the fact that they are both considered dynamic big hitters. Or any of Andre Ward's or Tim Bradley's recent efforts.

    Unfortunately by todays PC boxing standards one is supposed to mention a Klitschko fight were the opponent was not stopped fast enough or a decision from five years ago.

    I get how this works.

    A couple of Brigg's fights near the end of his career. Vs Liakhovich (except the 12th) and Ibragimov. Horrible stuff.

    Mayweather - De La Hoya
    Margarito - Pacquiao
    Mayweather - Baldomir
    Mayweather - Mosley
    Pacquiao - Mosley
    Vitali - Adamek - painfully boring
    Froch - Abraham

    all Extremely Boring.... and an embarrassment to the sport, Thousands of potential Boxing fans have disappeared when they tuned in to watch a great fight, and they got a little action fight. Both Pac and May have recently given us some of the most boring fights in History.

    You've got to be kidding me, not a great fight but most boring fight you've ever seen? I've seen worse.

    Andre Dirrell-Curtis Stevens and Wlad-Peter 2 are the two most boring I've ever seen.

    Not the most boring. But Chaves vs Pea was a ****ing disgrace. All Pea did was hold and hit. He got away with about 15 low blows. That fight should have been legendary.

    I don't even consider that a fight.

    Most boring fight I've ever seen? Wlad vs Ibragimov. Why? First time I've ever fell asleep during a boxing match. It took me a long time to appreciate Wlad after that snoozefest.

    The Tony Thompson fight was absolutely terrible to watch too.

    Any Wlad K 'fight' post-Corrie Sanders and Steward. I actually sat thru all 12 rounds of the abysmal Ibragimov 'championship fight'. I'm a masochist:patsch. Worse thing was, I had hyped this fight to family and friends because it was a unifying bout. After about the umpteenth, "Er, with big guys, things can happen dramatically" they got tired of the little boy who cried wolf and drifted away.

    :happyATG answer!

    Obviously your entitled to your opinion but I'm shocked you've listed:

    Pac vs Marg (Pac threw about 1200 punches and tore Marg's face to shreds).

    May vs Shane (Yes Shane was shot but was interesting to see May's comeback and sublime skill once again. Not as though there weren't any flush punches landed. May got rocked for the 1st time in years then proceeded to dismantle Shane).

    Froch vs Abraham (Was just a masterclass from Froch. Abraham was the betting favourite prior to kick off and for Froch to come out, off a loss and DOMINATE Abraham with his jab - I personally found entertaining).

    Pac vs Mosley (was boring yes but certainly not the most boring fight I've ever seen. Legitimate KD on Shane and we saw some exciting glimpses of how it should have panned out after the Pac "KD.")

    I don't think one sided fights are should be branded as boring. Many competitive fights (Bradley vs Alexander for example), are a hell of a lot worse.

    Not having a pop or owt' chief, just a bit surprised at your list.
