Fights That Were A Little Fishy.

[keithmoonhangover]

It's just a personal thing, I'm not saying they were fixed, but something odd. Apart from the obvious ones Ali-Liston, Willard-Johnson.

Jeff Harding vs Tom Collins - Collins packs in after being hit in the throat?

Seth Mitchell vs Jonathon Banks - Banks fights like a zombie after winning the first fight. Was it because he would likely have faced Wlad next?

Eubank vs Benn II - Michael Nunn goes on record saying it's a draw before the decision is announced.

Eubank - Jarvis - How the hell did Eubank get away with that?

Plenty of others, anyone?

Eubank v sherry and laing v some Italian for the European where I think one round lasted nearly 5 minutes !

[Coco]

Eubank v Schommer, that Brazilian, Amirilo or something.
Green v Briggs
Benn quit early v Collins both times

The second Benn vs Collins is on the level for me. I think Nigel and his cornerman, Jimmy Tibbs? agreed that he would give it a go, but he would get pulled out if he was taking too much punishment.

Liston Ali
both, but more so the second fight.

I've never watched it again but I remember thinking at the time Banks threw the fight. Didn't he basically almost knock Mitchell out like he did in the first fight and then just step off the gas and not really do anything from that point onwards? Winning was not in the script.

Tyson v seldon

[GooalaShooola]

Andrew Flintoff v Richard Dawson...

[crusader]

Wilder-Scott

[keithmoonhangover]

Andrew Flintoff v Richard Dawson...

We all knew about that one beforehand. It should have been called an exhibition.

To be fair, it was no more of a farce than the Banks v Mitchell rematch.

Wilder vs Scott

Although I don't think Wilder or his team did anything fishy, I do think Scott wanted nothing to do with Wilder and was looking to take a dive the first chance he got.

What happened in the Eubank - Jarvis fight?

[Supremo]

Andrew Flintoff v Richard Dawson...

Dawson nearly shat himself when he realised he'd actually punched flintoff by accident! That whole episode was an absolute disgrace to boxing and anyone that took part in its should be utterly ashamed. I.e McGuigan etc

[Stevieb8006]

Gomez vs mcdonaugh? The one where he was winning and quit mid round.

Barnes vs vincent.

[handsofstone]

Sturm/Chudinov 2 was absurd

[Coco]

Andrew Flintoff v Richard Dawson...

Most obvious fixed fight in history

[Stuarty]

Gomez vs mcdonaugh? The one where he was winning and quit mid round.

Barnes vs vincent.

Good shout. I remember that one. Think both their purses were held either temporarily so they could investigate betting patterns? The McPhilbin v Enzo fight where Enzo was gone and the bell was rung early was a piss take.

Was there not a bit of controversy about Khans defeat to Peterson? The man in the red hat or some bollux? I remember the ref taking points off a couple of times for Khan pushing.

[Stuarty]

Brandon Rios v Richard Abril was so blatantly fixed. That fight should've been investigated and those involved should've had no further involvement in boxing.

[keithmoonhangover]

What happened in the Eubank - Jarvis fight?

My mistake, I meant Eubank vs Sherry

[Tuan_Jim]

Any time Brian Nielsen boxed a name heavyweight they seemed to lose in odd circumstances, with plenty of ham acting.

Tim Doc Anderson - Mark Gastineau 2 was more than a little fishy.....

[milpool]

Tim Doc Anderson - Mark Gastineau 2 was more than a little fishy.....

In the book, 'The Years of the Locust', it's claimed that Anderson was drugged.

That's a good book. Anderson really believed that to be the case as his health deteriorated.... He shot the promoter and is now in life imprisonment
