now i know boxing is not a funny sport and not that i want to mock the danger the fighters were facing but sometimes there were some funny situations or moments that come along with them
like for example, for me Pac - Algieri fight where Max goes to Algieri's corner and asks them what plans they were going to do now that ALgieri's in a pinch.
Trainer: "um were going to release him out of the cage (or something like that) and he's going to knock him out next round"
then right after that..BOOM...Algieri's down :lol1:
that and where he's saying to Chris that "we were exactly where we want to be" :lol1:
so what's yours?
For me, it has to be Naseem Hamed vs Marco Antonio Barrera.
At one point Hamed tried a cheeky slap off the break and when Barrera did it right back and signalled "that's cool with me if you want to do it like that". Hamed immediately cried to the ref.
Then Hamed tried posing at the end of rounds where he'd taken punishment.
Lastly I laughed when Barrera slammed locked Hamed in a half-nelson and slammed his head into a ring post , shouting: "who's your daddy!?".
Plenty of laughs to be had in that fight (every time Hamed did the funky chicken).
Toney tried it with Roy and got tagged in the mouth and almost put on his ass.
Either way its still funny because who else (at that time) wouldve had the cajones to stick their tongue out at Roy and not get ktfo.
I used to laugh when James Toney used to stick his tongue out at fighters, but oddly I never found it funny when BHop did it. Maybe because Toney would sock the hell out of his opponents after hed clown em and BHop was content on making them keep missing...
Also I know its not "exactly" what you are asking but I couldnt stop laughing when Ricky Hatton got KO'd by Pac. That was hilarious because I always knew he was a bum.
Pac vs Algeiri and Pac vs Rios were hilarious when you consider all the **** that was talked by their coaches/hangers on in conjunction with the unrelenting shut out beat downs they received lol
Also Zab vs Kosta because of the funny KO and Mayweather vs Maidana 2 because of the funny bite and squeal.
Broner-Maidana for obvious reasons.
Peterson-Matthysse, Lamont deserved it for being on roids against Khan.
Matthysse-Garcia: "the machine doe".
Broner-Maidana is definitely up there
