... there's a huge difference between the "worst fighter ever" and the "most lost and confused fighter ever" ...
... and there are tons of fighters who might qualify as being the worst ever ...
... but as to who was the most lost and confused fighter ever, there's only one answer ...
... and that would be Oliver McCall in his rematch with Lennox Lewis ...
... (without question) ...

The Thai in the first video has been added to the list of banned fighters from Japan! Not a big surprise but news that I'm happy about.

Does the video list him as being 7-6-1 or am I mis-reading that? Boxrec lists it was his debut but it at least appears the video suggests he has 14 matches.

The video lists him as 6-1 (in Japan the first number is the reported total fights)
Boxrec is notorious for incomplete Thai records

Ah thanks for the clarification. I ask because if he beat 6 opponents....how terrible must *they* have been?

SORYY! You were right he was listed as 7-6-1 (1) (just watching the video back name my memory was foggy as hell earlier)

One of the worst fighters I've seen was Crawford Grimsley... Here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdOcGobOD2Y he gets taken out in 2 seconds of the 1st round.. The Terminator gets Terminated.. The round starts at 1:55 of the video and the fight is over at 1:57... The 2 slo-mo replays at 3:26 give you a better idea of what walking straight into a punch is all about... The 2nd slo-mo is more graphic because it shows Grimsley walking straight into a haymaker like he fell off a turnip truck. Funny thing is, he went the distance with George Foreman in his previous fight.

No problem man, I was just curious if he had beaten people or if it was his debut like boxrec lists.

Crawford Grimsley was better than Too Tall Jones.

Getting KTFO by Jimmy Thunder hardly puts you in the same pantheon with the other boxers on this thread. Grimsley went 22-4 and as you said was one of the only 14 of Foreman's 92 opponents who didn't get knocked out.

Okay... One of the worst fighters who ever challenged a Lineal Heavyweight Champion.

That's a very different conversation.

Eric Crumble does have one win. That record is wrong.
