This one immediately came to my mind as well.
The good old days of joke artists appearing in the WBO rankings for one cycle just so Scott Harrison, Enzo and Joe could get another easy defence in.

Amir Khan vs Dimitri Salita was a shocker. It was PPV too so double shocker

Re: Lowest quality World Title fight on these shores
salita has done pretty well as a promoter, at least compared to the other pugs who gave it a shot. i wonder if those jewish hats (yamaka?) give them extra brain power
Re: Lowest quality World Title fight on these shores
Yeah Herbie Hide had some shocking and yeah the Gunn one vs Maccerinelli are the ones I can remember.
Salita was poor but he had some okay wins so I wouldn't put him in the league of the others..... Joe Calzaghe also had some shockers aswell.

on paper Alex Arthur vs Nicky Cook may not have been that bad but it was easily one of the worst fights I've ever seen
