What's the most dramatic thing you've seen...

Fan man!

Second would be Mumma Wilson storming the ring to save her boy.

 

Has to be Tyson biting Holyfield's ear.

The Lewis/Holyfield I decision really shocked me bad tbh.

 

Gotta be the Fan man, it was just so random

 

roy jones getting knocked out. never thought it'd happen...again

 

Already been said, but probably "The Fan Man" as #1, & "The Bite Fight" as #2.

 

Pretty much the whole Nigel Benn vs Gerald Mclellan fight

 

Well, Fan Man has got to be the weirdest, most random thing to occur in a boxing ring.

Speaking of Bowe, this was pretty unexpected too:

Christ, Bowe again. He was a lightning rod to chaos:

This might not seem like such a big deal, but I was pretty flummoxed by this when i saw it live. From Miguel Cotto's performance, to Foreman's knee giving out a bajillion times, and Mercante Jr being... Mercante Jr. It was a real wtf moment.

However, going by the thread title, if you want dramatic there's a ton of fights that would qualify. FOTC, for one. That's pretty dramatic, as is The Rumble In The Jungle. Gatti/Ward. Hagler/Hearns. Hagler/Minter was intense, then with the calamity at the end. I bet a lot of people were blown away to see Dempsey destroy Willard. Or Tyson vs Spinks, that's a pretty charged up moment. Nothing could be as sad as watching Ali vs Holmes.

 

@Boggle: Imagine Bowe & Tyson squaring off in '95/'96... that's a powderkeg of madness right there! :scaredas:

 

What they should've done was put Bowe, Tyson & Golota in a round robin tourney of utter madness. I should've been born earlier and a boxing promoter. That could see into the future.

 

you wanna throw gary busey into that tourney i wouldn't complain

August 1977

Snipers in the upper balcony of the Saensak Muangsurin vs. Mike Everett
WBC Super Lighweight Title fight.

The fight took place in Roi-Et, Thailand, Muangsurin's home city.

Some crazy locals said that they would kill Mike Everett if he beat Muangsurin.

The Thailand Government placed Royal Thai Army sharp-shooters in the upper section of
the arena, and they had their rifles focused around the perimeter of the ring.

The televised fight (in Thailand) showed the snipers in the arena. Later, all film-tape was destroyed.

Mike Everett later stated, that he was sure the sniper telescopes were focused
on him in the ring. He never tried to win the fight.

 

Winner fights The President in '97!
