Worst title reign in History.

[Mr Ehrmantraut]

That award goes to Alex Arthur. Handed the WBO Super-featherweight title after Joan Guzman vacated. He lost it in his next fight against Nicky Cook.

The arrogant self publicist goes about telling anyone who will listen that he was a world champion. On paper, yes, but he neither won it in the ring or defended it.

Carlos Maussa

Valuev?? That guy shouldn't even have had a belt in the first place. Both fights that got him there were from gift decisions. One of the worst title holders ever.

Nathan Cleverly.

Gavin Rees

Agree with these.

I think lately the most disappointing - not the worst - has to be Jermaine Taylor. I respect Taylor but his middleweight reign underwhelmed big time.

Well Taylor may have disappointed but Abraham's middleweight reign was really sad.

He won a vacant title and defended it 10 times. Out of those 10 defenses Edison Miranda was by far the best opponent he faced. That really puts into perspective how awful his opposition was and how a 10 defense champ could get beaten so badly 4 times once he stepped up to world class.

Actually Khan won the Peterson fight on my scorecard (even with the point deductions).
But anyways, Peterson is a really good boxer and I have seen a lot worse world champions than him.

how i saw it as well...and not surprised peterson gets the decision in his OWN HOMETOWN...but it was nice to see someone like matthysse break him apart like he did.

Lamont Peterson represents a few things wrong with the sport of boxing. 1) The cheating involved, to win his belt he juiced up, the WBA made the correct decision in stripping him of his title, but the IBF dropped the ball by allowing him to continue serving as a champion. 2) Being champ whilst losing to Mathysse represents the politics that plague the sport, the moment it became clear that the additional pound was added to prevent putting the title on the line, the IBF should have stripped him of his title.

Jermain Taylor he almost lost to Wright & Spinks ,after the Spinks got destroy by Kelly Pavlik

What the hell are you talking about? You mean how Taylor got destroyed by Pavlik?

[Daddy T]

cheated his way to a dodgy decision goes off the PEDs gets flattened in 3 rounds, yup pretty crappy alright. The one fighter I truly can't stand right now

In before Daggum

joe calz...ah fu-kk nevermind

[bigcursedawg]

Lamont won the IBF title from Khan by one point, despite failing a drugs test. He didn't get stripped, has now been ko'd and is still champ! Can anyone beat that?

He's only defended it once against Holt. It hasn't been a impressive title reign, but far from the worst.

[Derranged]

John Ruiz-worst hw champ ever

Valuev was worse. Ruiz actually beat him but was robbed.

But yea, Ruiz was excruciating to watch.

Alex Arthur gets my vote, but there have been some pretty bad ones. As far as Heavyweight's go...Buster Douglas had a pretty bad 'reign'. Beats Tyson, who trained mainly on a diet of geisha girls and *******, then turns up some months later only to do an impression of Jabba the Hut on a valium overdose against Holyfield.
