Okay, I've put "Other" as an option in case you want to make your own suggestions, but I don't really see how you can top these two: Chris Byrd vs. DaVarryl Williamson and Hasim Rahman vs. Monte Barrett.
I just saw the Byrd fight, which I had 116-112 for Byrd. The referee instructing them to actually fight was a little out of his jurisdiction I felt (what do the rest of you make of it?) but any fight where Byrd is the aggressor has to be a bad thing. The highlight for me was that my copy lost the transmission signal halfway through round seven. Sadly though, it came back on after a minute. Oh well.
Rahman-Barrett... the only two highlights were where Rahman was hurt in the last(?) round by feather-fisted Barrett, making next month's title bout a mockery, though this was topped by that time they kicked over the ice bucket, which was highlight of the night. I had Rahman only just ahead at 115-113.
If I had to pick, I'd say Rahman-Barrett was the worst. Byrd was dull, but I could appreciate the skill involved. Rahman's just an overrated plodder.
But what say you?
