How many great fights have you seen from either Boogard or MacIntyre? Combine the two and you wouldn't get half the number of great ones that came from Probert, Wilson, Baumgartner, Domi, etc...

First of all MacIntyre has very good fighting abilities. Sure the guy is huge but he's very technical. So say he isn't a skilled fighter I do not agree with. He switches hands better then most and his boxing skills are good. I think you might want to to go back and watch more of his fights.
As for great fights. You half to consider that when you pack the power that these two guys had not many are going to want to open up with these guys. It takes two to make an exciting fight. Plus MacIntyre had some great fights. Of course he's not going to have the same number of great fights as guys like Probert or Domi cause he won't have close to the number of total fights. Just watch these fights from MacIntyre and tell me he doesn't have great fights.
