After that fucking abortion of a Tesco Valuev/Holyfield fight last night, let us pay tribute to the absolutely worst fucking period of any sport in history. Not best, not P4P, just the one you hate least.

Lennox Lewis by the biggest possible margin

Voted for Golota because if a sport can't be any good at least it can be funny.

Yeah the heavyweight division is just legendarily awful now. Toney and Lewis are/were the best of this boring bunch bunch how sad is that? Voting Ruiz because of how effectively he has trolled the boxing mags/forums.

did anybody see the fight last night that Holyfield evidently actually won except not according the judges?

― J0hn D., Sunday, 21 December 2008 17:41 (seventeen years ago)

The conspiracy theories about last night's fight are amazing. The thing is, being boxing, they're probably true.

if you go by the gripping action of round four it was surely a night to remember

― J0hn D., Sunday, 21 December 2008 17:46 (seventeen years ago)

round 12 sorry tagged "part four"

― J0hn D., Sunday, 21 December 2008 17:47 (seventeen years ago)

It's like the got into the match remembering that it was fixed and one of them had to take a dive, but they forgot which one of them was supposed to be hitting canvas.

Chagaev will destroy Valuev again so that'll be an improvement, Chagaev's left hook is pretty nice - he should move to Vegas & get some management who knows how to put a narrative together

― J0hn D., Sunday, 21 December 2008 17:56 (seventeen years ago)

of course he is presently quite busy singing in Wilco

"Valuev is known mostly for his enormous size and unwillingness to fight dangerous opponents.[2]"

― ice cr?m, Sunday, 21 December 2008 18:01 (seventeen years ago)

"As a teenager and a young man Valuev's father, the chief of the village fire company, often used his son as a ladder to reach the thatched roofs of the local houses. He was also used to rescue kittens from trees."

James Toney was only fun when he wasn't a heavyweight.

Lennox Lewis was a mediocre fighter, is a mediocre announcer and according to Emanuel Steward a damn good chess player - so I guess he wins here by default.

― sad man in him room (milo z), Monday, 29 December 2008 00:08 (seventeen years ago)

Eh? Lennox was not a mediocre fighter.

Then we'd have had to put Herbie The Pride of Norfolk (or Ipswich, I forget) in, and he'd have won in a landslide.
