    Leon Shavers, with a perfect record of 0-21, with all of his 21 unblemished losses coming by way of knockout (almost always in the first round). Have you guys ever seen a worse boxer? He fought for 12 years and retired in 1999:

    No way is Peter Buckley the worst boxer in the world. What a complete insult. The guy has taken many prospects the distance, including Naseem Hamed twice. As ESB's own Jeff Thomas will tell you, he's awkward and hard to hit clean. He loses regularly because he fights often against top prospects of a number of different weights, and he's defensive-minded. But he's not exactly disgraced himself because he's hard too hit clean and always goes the distance and gives people rounds.

    Of course, I'm sure he's not actually the world's worst boxer; but as far as comparing red-looking records goes I think his inclusion is merited (for the above reason).

    Whats wrong with you, Jack ?

    Hatton was never my favourite fighter but at least give him his proper respect, the guy was a very good fighter that only ever lost to the 2 top fighters of this generation.

    We both know Im right, mate :good

    LOL>.i actually like Hatton..and I think he even stands a good chance of beating Marquez if that fight comes off....I was just saying im suprised no one said hatton, because i would have expected someone to have said him, given how much **** he gets on the boards.
