You ****ing **** stop copying threads from sherdog and get a mind of your own ***g.ot

I also think DLH-Trinidad was the biggest flop. At least Mayweather-DLH didn't change from a boring boxing match to a pathetic game of tag.

I remember that night like it was yesterday, big fight party and the fight ends up being total ****.

Delahoya running around looking for an exit door while Tito is looking like a robot who can't do a damn thing without setting his feet.

DLH vs. Tito
Lewis vs. Holyfield
DLH vs. Mayweahter (was exactly BORING, but wasnt exciting enough to live up to the hype and MEANING of the figh to boxing at that time, it might have actually done more damage than good)
Klitschko vs. Ibragimoff (ultimate letdown since it was the first Uni since the 80's and it followed a freakin Joe Louis doc)

Taylor-Spinks was expected to be pretty boring - it just turned out to be even worse than expected.

De La Hoya - Mayweather also wasn't expected to be much by anyone who knew boxing, & lived up (or down) to expectations.

Trinidad - De La Hoya was a bit of serious letdown, but atleast had it's moments (although not many).

Barrera - Morales 2 was another let down, especially when compared to the first, but did have it's drama.


Biggest letdown for me was probably Leonard - Duran 3.
OK, they were both past their prime, but Leonard had recently had a thriller with Hearns, & Duran was having a hell of late career revival.

Turned out to be one of the most boring fights in history - hardly a real punch thrown the whole fight.
Truly bloody awful.
