    There's only so much room in a thread title.

    Criteria is that it was an important matchup between two top guys in or around the p4p list that you had no interest in seeing.

    For me it was Bernard Hopkins vs Winky Wright

    This is an excellent question and there must be some for me too but I can't come up with one right away. I have missed several good fights but not many of them blatantly

    Probably the most 'incredible' event in boxing history.

    I never watched the Mayweather-Maidana rematch. The only Floyd fight i havent seen since the late 90s. Don't feel like I'm missing much.

    It's weird because the first fight was proper competitive, the second fight wasn't at all but he came really close to sparking Floyd at the end of one of the rounds (think it was the third) and did nothing else for the rest of the fight.

    My point was that the first fight was really close but Maidana never had Floyd legitimately hurt. In the second fight he did but it wasn't close at all.

    The part when he rocked Floyd I've seen in highlights. Just not the rest of the fight. I think I was out with the wife that night and had no interest in ordering it. And never bothered to watch the replay.

    Ignoring knowledge and indulging in echolocation.
    47 - 3 ,.. with a few split decisions thrown in,.., we won't have that and or glorious American capitalism at the same time I tell ya.

    I still haven’t sat down and watched the Floyd - Pacquiao fight. It’s sitting there on my computer just waiting for me.

    Pac is to blame also. He basically pulled a Tua.

    Money grab on the part of both.

    Mayweather-McGregor was boring as all fuck. A no talent novice vs a totally disinterested, shot old man.

    Mayweather-Cotto was easily the most entertaining Floyd fight of the last 10 years.

    Exactly. Not to mention that PBF was carrying him for mostly the whole fight

    Because Mayweather fights are usually riveting, right?

    We can do this over & over but the fact of the matter is, you fucks on here, as boxing fans, got all 'sensitive' and butt-hurt about 'The Sweet Science' being tainted by it.

    Gotta laugh at that one...

    Honestly, you're the one who seems butthurt about it, since you always bring it up, along with other ''mma is the future and boxing is dying'' bullshit

    Any Mayweather or Pacquiao fight between them ducking each other and their actual fight. In fact all boxing during that time.
