Re: Worst Title Defenses Of All Time
How about Bernard Hopkins vs. Steve Frank?
Poor guy got starched in 14 seconds!
Ring magazine did an article on the fight call the quickest of executions, or something like that. THey got into Frank's past and how he got the title shot. Man, if you read that, you would be shocked he ever was allowed to fight one of the greatest middleweights of all time.
Craziness.
But even then, Paycheck was likely worst and had less of a chance against Joe Louis, lol.
Love the topic btw.

Paycheck's named suited him, least for the Louis bout. He showed up, picked a soft spot to land on the canvas, and picked his check up on the way out.
