    i remember watching tyson-lewis and thinking holy **** this man tyson is gonna either get killed or close to it. i was rooting for lewis but was truly scared for tyson as the fight progressed.

    another fight where i truly was worried about the amount of punishment was byrd-wk ii. byrd was a blown up middleweight taking punhces from a very hard hitter at heavyweight.

    corrales-castillo both took extremes amount of punishment but i was too mesmorized by it to even be concerned.

    Both Bowe/Golota fights and Vitali/Briggs.

    Whatever happened to the dude Darchinyan hurt real bad? Did he recover? I can't remember.

    Rahman/Holyfield-Man, Hasim looked like the elephant man after those headbutts.

    I was big Maskaev fan, but I really didn't think Rahman was seriously injured when he fell out of the ring. Just unconscience. Not trying to sound like an ass, that was just my initial thought.

    as great as a trainer garcia is he should of saved margarito not from pac but from margarito himself. say what you want about the plaster and **** but margarito is the type of warrior that will die in there if you let him.

    Levander Johnson vs Jesus Chavez

    I remember watching this and having a sick feeling in my gut and was happy when the fight was finally stopped and he seemed ok but later in the broadcast they said he had collapsed and was taken to the hospital and I just knew it was gonna be bad. And he died a few days later and that next Saturday I was at Klitschko vs Peter 1 when they gave him the honorary ten count in his hometown. I remember it like it was yesterday it was the opening bout to Barrera vs Peden PPV.
