    depends if you're a fan of the fighter dishing out the beating

    i was glued to the screen at pac-DLH and was cheering when ever manny landed a good shot

    margarito-mosley was pretty good for a one sided fight because in the early rounds marg was throwing back a bit and it was dramatic

        one sided fights that are HYPED up and anti climatic can hurt the sport. I know a lot of people who felt they wasted money on Pac/DLH.

          the third option for me. i was thinking about this the other day, i was going to make a thread on what makes a great fight and i thought a great fight has to be competitive not just one-sided. If its one sided, it goes from great fight to great performance ala Hopkins-Pavlik and Winky-Tito.

              If it's one sided in a mismatch way, then no I don't like it, if it's one sided in the way that 1 guy is putting on a great performance against a good opponent then I find it very good to watch.

                When they're upsets they can be exciting.

                    If the one on the receiving end is a big-headed overrated ass, every second of the beatdown is pure excitement.
