    Chavez Jrs by far I don't want to say it doesn't get anymore embarrassing than that because boxing these days will surely provide ''hold my beer'' moment but that was just skin crawling.
    Holyfields was just sad all round.

      Holyfields 60 next year, not fought in a decade and even then for years was struggling too pull the trigger and was getting the living hell beaten out of him by journeyman Sherman ''Tank'' Williams. He has a lot of valid excuses and shouldn't have been in the ring. Chavez Jr on the other hand is just a ****ing idiot.

        I think the 34 year old former champion losing to a 46 year old retired MMA fighter is way more embarrassing than the 58 year old long retired former champion losing to a 44-year old retired MMA fighter.

          This isn't even debatable but you're a clown ret@rd so what else should we expect.

            Chavez is an active fighter, Holyfield is a grandfather.

            JCC Jr won the first couple rounds and then gassed so bad I'm shocked he even made it to the final bell. Humiliating.

              IMO this was worse

                Chavez Jr because he's younger as a result,

                Holyfield staggering all round the ring like a drunk was worse on the eye tho. It was sad to see

                  Acting like Belfort is a young lion! He's near 50 himself and not a boxer. Nash out.

                    Love the boxing fans' excuses. The Holyfield fight is one thing, but Silva(And Vitor for that matter) are very, very far past their own primes themselves. Anderson's struggled with losses and horrendous injuries in his own sport for 8 years and is in his mid 40s fighting since the 90s. Vitor? Same story.

                    The Chavez Jr. fight humiliated the sport of boxing and really took down the massive ego's of the pugilist elitists. It was glorious.
