    You've ever seen in a fight? Some none too glaringly obvious choices would be interesting.

    So, who?

    Honorable mention to Micheal Nunn/Crawford Ashley. Bad stuff.

    Micheal Watson looked bad at the weigh-in for Eubank one.

    joe louis against billy conn in the first fight.....although he had gotten under 200 pounds a year previous to this...doing it this time was a real struggle for him and he was weakened in the fight....and it was all his own doing, as a heavyweight

    although the fight was called off at the last minute because kiko martinez was overweight...maybe it was just as well, cause wayne mccullough was very very tight at the weight..

    "Duran" against Hearns...... Duran lost pounds and pounds in training to make 154, and then ate like a horse at the buffet to gain some strength back.... It didn't work in 1984......

    "Sandoval" against Gaby Canizales in 1986..... Sandoval had nothing at 118, and it showed in his performance....

    "McCrory" against Curry in 1985.... McCrory was limp as a dick.....

    "Leon Spinks" at 190 for Qawi in 1986...... Spinks was roasted......

    "DLH" at 144 for Packy in 2008 was dump on DLH's behalf......

    "Byrd" was shot against Shaun George in 2008......

    "Ali" at 218 for Holmes in 1980 was horrid to witness.....

    "Bowe" at 235 for Golota in 1996.....

    "Garcia" against Ruelas in 1995 at 130 was dead....

    Pazienza against Haugen, probably the first time. They said he was a lean 160 walking around weight and cut to 135 by eating raisins, eating ice cubes and shivering. Sounded scary to me just hearing that he had to be hydrated after the weigh-in under the supervision of a doctor.

    Erik Morales would look pretty sickly when he cut weight but most of the time it really didn't affect him too muxh
