    3 horrid fights where a pathetic amount of punches were landed. Casimero vs Rigo had a historically low total of 91 punches landed combined. Shakur vs Santos had 105 total punches landed. And now we have Haney vs Ramirez with 110 punches landed combined.

    Which would you say was the worst out of the 3?

    I actually saw Shakur/Santos..


    It’s the end of boxing as we know it.

    none of these runners will ever get paid again.

    I don’t think that one compares to those fights at all. From that fight Crawford forced the action and threw more hurtful punches without running away or avoiding any contact. It wasn’t exciting and it was a dull performance from Crawford but it certainly wasn’t as horrid as the fights mentioned.

    A better comparison would be Andre Dirrell vs Curtis Stevens where one guy just flat out ran throughout the fight.

    Im hearing that the haney fight had the fewest punches ever thrown in 12 rounds. Ill try to see how true that is... they threw 503 total punches I believe.

    Nah this is fake news.

    Doesnt seem right but supposedly Garcia vs Haney had only 499 thrown.

    Shakur Santos. Recency bias cannot have us overlook how awful that was.

    then Haney Ramirez.
