    Floyd vs Logan Paul.

    I mean, for Christ Sake, at least McGregor was world-class in a combat sport.

    this is true so obviously mcgregor isnt a viable option. but this tenshin guy had never had a pro boxing match AND was like 20lbs smaller than mayweather jr. the youtube fagget is FIFTY pounds heavier. i guarantee the fight in february lasts longer than the farce in japan

    I wanted to pick Ali vs. Alzado since Ali was still HW CHAMPION at the time he challenged Alzado. Then I realized Alzado actually had a 44-1 amateur record and now I'm switching the pick to a Floyd fight

    Mayweather-McGregor for the fact that it was actually packaged and sold as a competitive match , and it was sanctioned by the NSAC.

    Exhibition matches are just exhibitions.

    This. If least entertaining is the scale, Ali-Inoki must be the winner

    Back in '99 the WWE had a real boxing tournament with the winner getting a fight with Butterbean. And they were thinking the winner of the tournament would give Butterbean a good fight.

    Bart Gunn was the unfortunate champ of that tournament.

    Damn, I hadn't seen this. Brutal

    In the comments people say Gunn won the tournament which he wasn't supposed to win, and the WWE made him pay by setting this up

    The most hilarious part of that story is that Bart Gunn was willing to work (lose) the match with Dr. Death and then Bruce Prichard is like "No, no, no! We got all the confidence in the world in Dr. Death!" Keep in mind, NONE of these matches are sanctioned, there's no athletic commission, so obviously Bruce should have accepted Bart's offer.

    And then going into the locker room, road agent (the dudes that script the matches) Pat Patterson (R.I.P.) comes up to him and says sarcastically "Oh, you're gonna knock-out Dr. Death are ya?!" Then the other road agents say the same thing and it pisses him off, which probably inspired him to knockout Dr. Death. Then he KO's Godfather (who got into the semi-final after Dan "The Beast" Severn was asked by the road agents to drop out of the tourney after losing to him).

    Then we get the final, the glorious KO over JBL:



    Yet because he was a lower mid-card guy, the WWE doesn't know what to do with Bart, so Vince McMahon has nothing for him until Butterbean entered the picture?!? Probably should have had him turn heel with a delusional one-punch KO gimmick like Big Show, and feud with Steve Austin for a month.
