What fights can you think of that were tedious to watch, but bring fond memories for other reasons. One of my picks must be Bruno v McCall, as we had waited so long to see Bruno become champion. Any suggestions?

Degale vs Groves. Just for Degale's premature celebration.

Jones-Ruiz, if only for the fact that a former Middleweight champion taking even a portion of the Heavyweight crown is such an unusual feat and it will be a good while before it happens again.

Calzaghe-Hopkins, if only to see Hopkins' face afterwards given his 'I would never let a white boy beat me' bile which he spewed beforehand.

Mosley-Mayorga, if only for the fact that it contained that plank Mayorga getting knocked out, always a pleasure in itself.

Your right it wasnt boring. I guess I just classed it as boring as it didnt live up to the power punching tearup a lot of us thought it would be. Great result though

I don't agree with him that he won, although he might've been gifted a decision had it been in Nottingham. It WOULD have been a total gift, mind.

Only for me, but Skelton - Williams 2. Just to watch Skelton dance around a vastly overweight Williams was hilarious

Skelton-Sprott.

We love to remember it such that if we ever see a bad fight, we remember we've seen one worse.

I kept changing the channel just to make sure I wasn't watching an EQUOP version of Strictly...
