Top 5 worst mismatches not for the fans but for one of the boxers in the fight.
1. Mike Tyson vs. Michael Spinks- Spinks is one if not the greatest LH. But he could not take on a prime Mike Tyson. Ended with a KO in the 1st round. Ending Spinks career with a record of 31 wins 1 loss by KO.
2. Frazier vs. Foreman I and II- Foreman was just too big and too powerful both matches didn't end good for Smokin' Joe.
3. Rocky Marciano vs. Joe Louis- Joe Louis was an old man and should have been retired. If they both would have been in their primes that match could have been one of the greatest fights of all time.
4. Ali vs. Ali- Ali did not want to stop fighting and in the end it really messed him up mentally and physically. The Thriller in Manilla (Ali vs. Frazier III) should have been his retirement fight. Instead he fought 10 more times everyone of those fights would hit him hard later in life. The Norton fight Ali got banged around but won in the end. The fight that really hurt him was the Earnie Shavers fight it was a brutal bout that in the end would change Ali for ever. After that fight Ali became physically drained. winning and losing to Leon Spinks. Then taking a tragic brutal loss to Holmes. Ending his last fight to a loss to Berbick.
5. Tyson vs. Buster- Tyson never showed up to that fight his long time father figure, friend and trainer Cus D'Amato died only a week before the fight. If Tyson would have been mentally and physically ready for that fight it wouldn't have lasted 3 rounds.
Great question had fun answering it.
