I wasn't born yet but I've heard through interviews that Ty Cobb wouldn't play with colored people, that to me is the lowest form of disrespect.
Make an actual new video instead of rehashing the same list for 5 videos
Don't watch the channel then.
the ear bite from mike tyson
Fruck Fance!!!!
And Artest didn't even go after the right guy at The Palace. Imagine being that poor SOB. Not be guilty and have Artest charging at you. I would have crapped my pants.
Like that bill burr joke 😂😂😂 "but my beer's still in my hand!" 😮
A 6'7 giant charging at you is Damn scary honestly
Cross checking an official and only getting 10 games? That's like getting a speeding ticket for vehicular manslaughter
As a die-hard cleveland Browns fan. I'm a little surprised, Myles Garrett hitting Mason Rudolph didn't make this list
It's gotta be The Malice At The Palace, it was one of the most disrespectful moments in sports.
I was watching that game on tv, and turned it right before all that happened. Didn’t find out what happened until the news the next morning
I watched that PPV Tyson v. Holyfield fight with my grandpa.... When Tyson spit the ear out I will never forget his words... "What the hell was that?"
RIP grandpa.
I watched that with my grandfather as well, he was so upset about Holyfield headbutting Tyson over and over again and got up shouting "YEAAAAH!" when Tyson finally bit him as a retort, then as they had a poll on the news "Would you forgive Tyson" the first moment a hundred percent of the people stated that they would never forgive him, then on the final results it turns out ninety three percent voted to forgive him. It was a weird day, my mother was mad asking "Why would they forgive him?"
Watched it live with my dad. He caught the bite before I did. We were both so confused. We'd ordered pizza and everything but the fight was over in like ten minutes (I mean, to be fair, that's what we expected from a Tyson match, lol).
It was messed up, but if you watch it in slow motion you can see Holyfield was hitting him with elbows. Intentional or not that doesn’t mean you bite off someone’s ear, lol
Watched it at my uncles with my grandpa too, who is also passed. I was only 7, but I remember him shouting “he bit his ear” and “ he did it again”.
You guys should do a list of the worst team owners in sports history. Number 1 has to be a toss up between Dan Snyder and Donald Sterling
You forgot John Spano, it’s an unbelievable story if you don’t know it, he faked his fortune and bought the New York Islanders, keeping delaying payments, but taking the position. There is a documentary on it, it’s wild
You guys forgot the hockey game hit of the Detroit Red Wings and the Colorado Avalanche when Lemieux hit Draper. That hit sparked a year long fuse leading to the Brawl in Hockeytown.
Yea that was really dirty
Vince Carter wasn't being disrespectful.
I guess that's why it's at number 30. The most wholesome entry on this list.
I think it's on this list not because of it being disrespectful, but more along the lines of it never being done before and the ramifications of what the legend of Vince Carter's dunking skill would become.
Hell no he wasn't
Air Canada
Actually he was
Taking a dive is disrespectful, and you see it in every single soccer game.
Balotelli actually thought he was offside. He heard the whistle from the crowd, and took it for the official one. He shows it to the coach while being subbed.
Vince Carter dunking over that big man shouldn't b on this list. I don't consider that disrespectful its part of the game
No intentional disrespect at all. Just a man using his talent.
@@MiketheratguyMultimediaWe're talking about a guy who jumped so high in a dunk contest that he threw the mfer in. The dude was just in his way.
Isn’t that stuff kinda.. celebrated these days?
Also, an over 7ft clearance is a damn fine feat of flying.
I Don’t Think She Meant Literally Disrespecting His Opponent BUT The Dunk Itself Was Sooooo Nasty It’s Disrespectful 😂😂
As a Norwegian born in Chile I remember hearing a lot about the world cup in where the Chilean team were losing, so they staged an "accident" in where some someone in the audience would launch fireworks close to the the Chilean keeper while the keeper then did lie down on the ground cutting himself with a blade, I am proud of my nation of birth, but that has to be the absolutely worst and most dishonorable act in sports
There is nothing scummier than purposefully going out of your way to injure your opponent. You aren't an athlete at that point, you're nothing but a thug, and you deserve to go to prison for assault.
I agree.
Hitting, punching, kicking, headbutts, even biting .. it can all be considered poor sportsmanship and fines and suspensions are a part of those. But any "athlete" that chooses to spit at someone else should be kicked out of the league, fined, and slapped by his/her own mother in public. That's beyond gross and disrespectful.
We know shut up
@@EYG4 {SPIT} 💦
🤣
Love your video, WatchMojo, and keep up the great work you are awesome
Mike Tyson biting off a man's ear will go down in history as the worst moment in boxing. 🎉
Or the best😂😂😂
He said sorry
Very unsportsmanlike of Mr. Tyson.
he now sells weed gummies that are ear shaped
@@Ronabolol
You forgot about the McGregor/Khabib post-match brawl at UFC 229
imho, the FIBA 2019 basketbrawl between the philippines and australia should at least be an honorable mention
I remember in the CFL when Rocket Ismail stomped on the head of a Calgary player during a brawl.
Disrespectful? That ear chomp was downright cannibalistic. Tyson warned him about those headbutts though
The Mario Balotelli incident was bad, but I feel we're missed a few worse moments in soccer. Two that come to mind were Roy Keane deliberately injuring Haaland, Paulo Di Canio pushing referee and Austria vs Germany in 1982 all spring to mind.
To be precise, Austria vs. West Germany at the 1982 Football World Cup🙂Remember that in those days, Germany was two separate countries, Capitalist West Germany, and Communist East Germany🙂Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 18th May 2024.
You forgot Kyle Busch's Obscene Gesture from the 2010 AAA Texas 500.
I never understood why they didn’t make Evander Holyfield the spokesman for Tyson Foods.
Butler Looks Like IShowSpeed Imo.
Pumped to watch this!
Great list
How do you miss the Claude Lemieux hit on Kris Draper? It shattered half of the man's face.
I was surprised I didn't see the elbow by Brazilian soccer player Leonardo that fractured the skull of Tab Ramos in the 1994 World Cup
I love how everyone talks about MikenTyson bitting his ear but not talk about how Holyfield was playing dirty the whole figgt with headbuts and lowblowa. Tyson was just frustrated on how Holyfield can get away with playing dirty
The mayweather vs Ortiz fight wasn’t disrespectful. The first rule in boxing is, PROTECT YOURSELF AT ALL TIMES!!!! Ortiz didn’t.
I find it funny that Ron Artest now has "World Peace" in his name after causing the biggest brawl in sports history and attacking a fan.
Bruce Lee once said, "Biting is effective in close quarters, but don't make a habit of using it. For that is a good way of losing your teeth."
Even the Australian Richie Benaud was not happy about the underarm ball
So many petty, childish multimillionaires.
Y’all be so hateful 😂 and it’s funny bc you don’t even know how much of a joke you actually are. Just think about how petty and childish your slave owning ancestors were 🤦🏾♂️
Dishonorable mentions:
1. Antonio Brown walks off the football field during the game between the Buccaneers and the Jets in 2021.
2. Fuzzy Zoeller's racist remarks towards Tiger Woods.
3. Texas Rangers pitcher Frank Francisco throws a folding chair into the crowd, hitting a female fan in the face, breaking her nose.
4. Basketball player punches referee in a 2001 game in Uruguay.
Myles Garrett helmet swing incident
The Battle of Bramall Lane is an interesting and controversial football match. So many players got red carded that the game had to finish early because too few players were left on the field
Sucker punching a guy with no gloves in boxing. Didn’t like that.
Isaiah Thomas once said that if he had still been the head coach for the Indiana Pacers that year, The Malice At The Palace would've never happened.
I BELIEVE HIM 100%!!!
So a hockey player gets suspended for 30 games for stepping on a man with a blade, which is a deadly weapon but Ron Artest is suspended a whole season for running in the stands and punching a fan. Also, a boxer goes to jail for sucker punching another boxer.
I remember that, there was an Olympic Boxing match, and Holyfield was there to watch, and unfortunate enough, that match has ear bite. Damn dark.
Thanks for the compilation above, WatchMojo. At 21:43 (No. 5, that is), the 2006 Soccer World Cup final between Italy and France, that is, and the headbutt by France's Zinedine Zidane on Italy's Marco Materazzi, one version of the incident has it that Marco Materazzi pulled on Zinedine Zidane shirt when a free kick was being taken, and when the referee was not looking. Zidane responded by asking Materazzi whether, he, Materazzi, desired his shirt that badly. Materazzi responded to Zidane by telling Zidane, that no, he did desire Zidane's shirt, that what he actually desired was Zidane's sister. It was then that Zidane turned round and headbutted Materazzi on his chest.
The verbal exchange was said to have been in Italian, Italian Zidane learnt when he played in the Italian Soccer League known as "Serie A."

Baseball brawls are hilarious. The LEAST aggressive sport gets the WHOLE TEAM involved in every altercation, and it’s usually just a screaming match between ball handlers and shaft handlers. HAHAHAHAHA!!
Maradona should have made this list easily.
Why?🙂The "hand of god" goal he scored against England at the 1986 Football World Cup?🙂Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 18th May 2024.
That pitch hit Garcia right in the 8 on the back of his jersey. That said, Zimmer came at Martinez and was probably lucky he didn't get worse.
You know how hard you have to hit to be able to knock someone unconscious while you're riding on ice with metal blades, have massive, thick gloves on, and the person you hit is wearing a helmet? Dude could've made millions as a boxer lol.
My mums partner was there when the under arm incident happened. Apparently the crowd begging and praying for no under arm. And when it happened everyone was pissed😂
The cricket throwing underhand one isn't unsportsmanlike. It's pretty much the same thing as taking a knee in football.
Shaq dunking on that guy and shoving him was hilarious it better be on here
To be fair everyone wanted to do that to Harden with his constant flopping and rule bending. I see that elbow as swift justice.

The Toni Schumacher and Patrick Battiston incident
Zimmer had no right coming at Pedro Martinez like that in the first place
My suggestion happened during the 1912(?) MLB season. Hall of Famer Ty Cobb attacked a heckler in the stands who happened to have only one leg. The consequences of the attack initially was a complete ban for the rest of the season. His team...Detroit Tigers...was going to forfeit every game until their teammate was reinstated. The league threatened to install a substantial fine for every game they didn't play. Eventually, the league gave in and reinstated Cobb.
How nonchalant jack was about paralyzing derrick after tackling him was wild to me. Its true thats always a possibility playing football especially back then. But deliberately trying to hurt somebody,then brush it off peak disrespect.
Carter dunk was enormously disrespectful, respectfully
Shaq has been playing like that since his rookie year. Chris Dudley was at fault when he stood in the man's path.
I'm surprised the incident involving hockey player Matt Petgrave killing Adam Johnson on the ice with the blade of his skates wasn't on the list.
That man was looking right at the ref then bumped him on purpose smh
When you set out to hurt someone else, you only end up hurting yourself. Tonya Harding found that out the hard way.
Hazard didn't kick the ball boy. In fact, they recently talked to each other about it (now the ball boy owns some vodka company in Europe or something) and Eden immediately said "guy I never kicked you"
Holyfield was head butting Tyson the whole fight. He knew what he was doing and Tyson reacted. He shouldn’t have but him, something needed to be done.
That Swansea ball boy went on to own AU Vodka
Steve Downie flying into Dean McAmmond.
Downie's first game in the NHL in any capacity, as it was a preseason game. Leapt into Dean McAmmond head first, McAmmond went limp on the ice face down, Downie chuckled and got back up, McAmmond was concussed. Downie got a 20 game suspension.
Do a list of the most disrespectful acts from the fan sections of sports teams
That deserves a list of its own
They dont show the 2 head buts though. Mike was only cut in one fight, I can remember. This one. They wont talk about that, will they.
Vince Carter's dunk was far from being disrespectful
WWE Survivor series 1997 should be on this list between Brett Hart and Sean Michaels the Montreal screw job
Rodman was getting BODIED by a young KG and took it out in the camera guy.
Maradona's brawl Barcelona vs Bilbao
I remember after the Moore thing happened the hockey group at my old work were defending Bertuzzi saying that he had it coming after what he did to Nasland. Even though he already fought for it earlier in the game. Bunch of idiots I use to work with.
Malice at the Palace SOULD be number 1
Should not sould
Was Harley Quinn based on Tonya Harding? Because they just seem the same.
Vince Carter’s dunk was glorious disrespect though.
Correction: Don Zimmer tried to attack and punch Pedro. And Pedro just helped him to the ground instead of punching back and hitting back
Vince Carter was doing his gahd damn job
The ear biting was the worst moment in sports history
Facts
Lies go watch the fight again Holyfield was hitting Tyson with low blows and head butts the whole fight he got what he was looking for
Cantona was always a very exentric player. He once called the French National Team Coach a "sack full of crap". But in the shown Moment the fan alledgedly screamed racist remarks at Cantona. After some years where he got interviewed about that incident if he feels any regret, he simply said:"yes, I should've kicked him harder.
Barry Hall then went into (not overly successful, mind you) boxing, funnily enough.
#30: when you don’t know the sport you’re covering
ngl i was expecting to see Allen Iverson's step over in this
The black socks is an example of how you should always at least pay your players a decent wage. It's noted that at the time, they weren't paid a lot even for professional athletes and couldn't even be traded to other teams. Although I have no clue how much they would have made back then, that sort of a way to stick it to the owner. It's not the best way, but it at least add a small bit of justification despite it not being a good thing.
The NHL malice at the palace seemed much worse than the NBA one. I wonder what the difference was…
Most of these disrespectful moments happened because of disrespectful moments
Zidane was respectfull, he didn't pointed at materazzis nose!
The under arm it’s legal because in Australian cricket rules your can under arm per over, unfortunately it come the last ball of the game.
I'm amazed how you can always forget that Ortiz torpedoed his head into Mayweather then we have to watch in disgust as you all act like he's a victim. You even acknowledged how the ball boy played his role in being kicked. 😂😂😂
30 reasons why athletes are not to be worshipped and idolized.
Not a Mayweather fan at all, but dude Ortiz really was headbutting him the whole fight, and it's "defend yourself at all times"
Ikr. Never mind that right before this Ortiz PURPOSELY headbutted Floyd drawing blood from his mouth. Never mind the ref gave the signal to continue fighting which is exactly what Floyd did. People’s dislike is all you need to know for why Ortiz gets a pass and Floyd gets the spotlight.
Isn’t this just the top 20 word for word just with 10 extra entries?
The way Don Zimmer bounced off the ground is out of control.
WHAT WAS PEDRO SUPPOSED TO DO???? It could have been much worse...
Tyson gave Holyfield his ear back eventually. To bury the hatchet, so to speak.
What about the fight between Argentina and Netherlands in the 2022 World Cup?
keep your hands up at all times
Holyfield's ear bit Mike Tyson?
Apparently I don't understand soccer, but what did the ball boy do? All I see is the kid getting kicked?
Where Jack Perry "punched" Tony Khan in this list?
If You Butthead Someone Like Mike Tyson In The Ring, You Deserve What's Coming To You!
Yeah I agree, me and my grandfather were really mad, he kept headbutting him over and over smirking at Tyson each time edging him on, if people commenting had actually watched the fight they might have comprehended why Tyson did it, the experts back then all thought it was justifiable, while the countless billions that never saw it were like "Why would he do that unprovoked?" Holyfield earned it
Some of those butts looked unintentional, Holyfield ducking in the clinch naturally catches Tyson's face. That said, he also looked like he slipped a few in on purpose.
@@MiketheratguyMultimedia As a former amateur boxer Well I still fight sometimes and destroy guys half my age, in fact people think I should become a pro and then gasp when I tell them I am forty know that you do not duck like that for the cheer reason that headbutting someone should get you disqualified
So of course Holyfield should know
Tyson may have bit Holyfield ear but how many low blows and head butts did Holyfield give Tyson in that fight? That wasn’t disrespectful?? 😂
Credit where it's due: this is pretty broad-ranging!
Delmons bat throw not on here?
