stumbled across johnny nelson v carlos de leon whilst sortin thru some old fight tapes and set myself the challenge of trying to rewatch it, unfortunatley the size of the task was too great for a meer mortal such as myself and i retired after 2 rounds ! got me thinking had that been the first fight i had seen rather than benn v watson i would probably have never watched another fight again

There can be only one...

a good half dozen eubank fights also probably qualify

The real disappointment there is that we knew he had that amazing 45-degree Kung Fu Death Punch just sitting on ice he couldve unleashed at any moment to spice things up, but didnt.

Ali-Inoki---one of the quintessential moments in sporting history.

Have to agree with you, painful to watch, I remember the crowd booing very early on and even the ref asking them to fight !!!

Page-Tubbs always comes to mind...

I have a short documentary about the Nelson fight, it's a pretty entertaining watch.

Ali-Inoki x 2

Starling-Ozaki

Breland-Starling 2

Nunn-Barkley.

Andre Ward is a potential world class stinker in the making.....

Rahman vs John Ruiz

Lewis-Tua

That's always my answer, no 12 round fight can touch it.

It takes more than a left hook and a bad haircut to entertain you?

Mads Larsen - Sven Ottke

Round 1-11 looking the same with both landing 1-2 shots each round
Round 12 Ottke running backwards the entire round, because he knew that he was ahead on the score cards.

Tyson v Bonecrusher was pretty bad.

Sprott - Skelton II

you all lose it was skelton vs sprott 2 i literally fell asleep (i mean literally and not figurativly)

posted at same time as me

I just cant believe anything could be worse than pairing Hopkins and Wright.

Johnny nelson vs Carlos de leon

Nelson - DeLeon, awful! I didn't see either of these but I hear they ran it close: DeLeon vs Jose Burlon and Nelson v James Warring.

I saw Hassim Rahman-Monte Barrett live in Chicago .
Had good seats. That didn't make it any better. Cure for insomnia.

Williamson Byrd no doubt. 10 punches a round combined .

Nothing that I've ever seen can touch Nelson - DeLeon, it was unreal for a title fight.

Ive always found Wright-Hopkins a surprisingly enjoyable fight, definitely not as boring as some believe.
