    Uninterested in Certain fights/rivalries?

    Are there any popular fights or sets of fights that you aren't that interested in? For some reason I have very little interested in the Vazquez/Marquez fights. I've seen pieces of them on several occasion but always find myself zoning out through the action. I know they are epic battles but they just don't do it for me.. Anyone else have any good fights that don't cut it for them?

      Ruiz is pretty brutal to watch.

        I'd have to see a list of what other people perceive to be good fights. If somebody thought Trinidad-DLH or Hopkins-Winky was a good fight, then I'd strongly disagree. But Marquez-Vazquez definitely works for me on every level.

            Well i think some fights are outright percieved to be busts despite big names.. biggest one that comes to mind is Taylor - B-Hop.. I don't think anyone who has seen it can stand it.. My friends and I had our scorecards out last month for the second one and we had to turn it off due to boredom.

              McCallum-Toney, good fights but never really got me interested.

                I think the problem sometimes is that you have to have atleast a little interest in one of the men in the ring. If both men's personalities and backgrounds are uninteresting it can be difficult to care about what they do in the ring..

                  I'd prefer to have a root-canal performed on me, rather than sit through 12rnds of Cory Spinks. This guy actually made a Mayorga fight look boring!

                    Have you checked your pulse lately? The Vasquez-Marquez fights have been some of the most exciting bouts in recent memory! Maybe you're watching the wrong sport?...
