    All good choices, but Cory Spinks takes the cake. Plus he sometimes gets credit and wins that he shouldnt have.

      athletically talented fighters who use their better footspeed and stamina to run around the ring and use movement as their primary menas of defense, they move in throw one punch than move out. They could do more but their content not to. they land very few good punches but get hit less themselves, this style of fighting should be penalized by judges, if you land 10 and your opponent land 4 it should be an even round if the other guy is at least trying to engage.

        how was the pbf vs baldy and winky vs quartey
        those are singular fights.

        mayweather wasn't boring in the fights with augustus, hernandez, manfredy, ayala, chavez, castillo 1, chico, gerena, ndou, corley, gatti, and judah fights.

        wright had good fights with vargas and taylor, and the mosley fights were decent. watching him use tito as a bobblehead for 12 rounds was ok, not dull.

        now compare that with guys like raheem or cory stinks. hopkins has been extremely dull since 2004 as well.

            I couldnt agree more. If all judges were to enforce this we would have so many better fights. More imporantly better fight outcomes.

              yes, casa's fights are generally stinky.

              i liked the garcia fight, the first chico fight, and the popo fight was decent, but casamayor is usually dull.

              sometimes the most exciting thing to watch about casa is to see how blatant his fouls will be.

                you are right, but this what you missed, they depend on the other fighter for them to look great

                  a fighter's excitement level is almost always based on the other guy as well. it takes two to tango, and two styles have to mesh reasonably well.

                  that's why it takes a special kind of stinker like zahir raheem to make one of the most exciting fighters of this era, erik morales, boring.

                  can you picture zahir raheem being in a fight as entertaining as wright-vargas or mayweather-ndou?

                    well a lot of names comes to my mind...but who is the worst ??

                    these come to mind


                    chris byrd
                    cory spinks
                    winky wright
                    floyd mayweather
                    antonio tarver
                    john ruiz

                    Why isnt Andre Dirrell on the list. I would watch any of the fighters on this list before I would watch another Andre Dirrell fight. This guy is ****ing pathetic.
