Poorest fights to watch that happened on British soil

[TheLeprechaun]

I'm trying to build a list of the fights on British soil that stunk out the joint.


Frankie Gavin vs Young Mutley
Frankie Gavin vs Bradley Skeete
Joseph Parker vs Hughes Fury

[TheLeprechaun]

I'd actually add Burnett vs Haskins also

[Counter-puncher]

Haskins, like Junior Witter and Gavin, has been involved in more than one (also Don Broadhurst was an awful fight for haskins)

for Witter: Judah, Gavin, and Corley all pretty terrible, from memory

[tigermoth87]

Gavin McDonnell on the undercard of Frampton Quigg.

In fact Frampton Vs Quigg. That made me wish Gavin McDonnell was back on.

[Bigdogsnose]

Froch v dirrell was absolutely dire. Khan v mcloskey was pretty boring.

Frampton v quigg was also awful.

[kevo]

Could create a list comprised solely of Johnny Nelson fights.

[wesshaw1985]

Bellew vs. Cleverly 2 on PPV...

[fightfan95]

Bellew vs. Cleverly 2 on PPV...

You beat me too it!

[dirk2686]

Skelton Sprott on (I think) the Khan Limond undercard. Absolutely dire.

Hughie Parker was tragic regarding recent fights.

[whiskey]

Another vote for Haskins vs Broadhurst.

Both good boxers, but they didn't gel at all. I guess that's the way it goes sometimes.

[ShadrachSimmo]

Skelton Sprott on (I think) the Khan Limond undercard. Absolutely dire.

Hughie Parker was tragic regarding recent fights.

That was horrible. Skelton v Williams I think also on itv also a total shitfest.

[Counter-puncher]

was Frampton - Quigg the most expensive and high-profile fight to merit a place on this thread? i guess so.

[Noxy]

Hughroy Currie vs Funso Banjo was no classic

[stujones]

No mention of Johnny Nelson yet?

Joe Calzaghe vs David Starie.

[forestbox]

Rose v arnfield was terrible

[stujones]

I'm also going to say it - because it seems to have gone in folklore as some kind of classic - but DeGale vs Groves 1 was a sparring session.

And I am saying DeGale vs Groves 1 because there will surely be DeGale vs Groves 2 at somepoint.

[stujones]

Naz's last fight - against that Spaniard.

[Boxerbeetle]

No mention of Johnny Nelson yet?

Joe Calzaghe vs David Starie.

Calzaghe vs Salem
Calzaghe vs Ashira (admittedly he broke his hand early in this one)

[lefthook82]

Sprott v williams 3

[Ketchel]

Robin Reid V Sugarboy Malinga was extremely poor.

[samwbr]

Saunders v Monroe this year. fornicating horrible non event.

[TheLeprechaun]

Just remembered Ortiz vs Malik Scott

[mickey1975]

Just remembered Ortiz vs Malik Scott

Monaco, North Yorkshire.

[TheGingerBomber]

THat Cornish v Sexton fight is up there. Just the level of the two was embarrassing.

[TheGingerBomber]

As much as I like him, any Dave Allen fight.
