'Saddest Boxing Moments'

Agreed. :verysad

Lewis may have gotten the KO in round 7, VK was exhausted, hurt & clingling on for his life in rounds 5 & 6.

 

What is it like being blind?

 

Juan Coggi vs. Eder Gonzalez was just plain sad....

 

You tell me. :think

 

Its a lot like watching Lewis-Klitchko and thinking Lewis was on his way to a KO victory...

 

k did you not see Vitali eat a huge uppercut and clinch for the last portion of the round or not

June 20, 1980

Cleveland Denny getting pounded 'unmercifully' by Gaetan Hart, while a complete
inept and moronic Referee - Rosario Baillargeon let the battering continue
while everyone at ringside was screaming for him to stop the fight.

Cleveland Denny died 16-days later from brain injuries sustained from the
beating.

 

Owen-Pintor for me.

 

patterson v liston 2...and patterson feeling so bad and ashamed he disguised his face (false moustache) and went to the airport after the fight abd boarded the first plane out of america

.........

"As I got onto the plane, you'd never have recognized me," he said. "I had on this beard, mustache, glasses, and hat — and I also limped, to make myself look older. I was alone. I didn't care what plane I boarded; I just looked ip and saw this sign at the terminal reading 'Madrid,' and so I got on that flight after buying a ticket.
"When I got to Madrid I registered at a hotel under the name 'Aaron Watson.' I stayed in Madrid about four or five days. In the daytime I wandered around to the poorer sections of the city, limping, looking at people, and the people stared back at me and must have thought I was crazy because I was moving so slow and looked the way I did. I ate food in my hotel room. Although once I went to a restaurant and ordered soup. I hate soup. But I thought it was what old people would order. So I ate it. And, after a week of this, I began to actually think I was somebody else. I began to believe it. ... And it is nice, every once in a while, being somebody else. ..."
Patterson would not elaborate on how he managed to register under a name that did not correspond to his passport; he merely explained, "With money, you can do anything."
Now, walking slowly around the room, his black silk robe over his sweat clothes, Patterson said, "You must wonder what makes a man do things like this. Well, I wonder too. And the answer is, I don't know ... but I think that within me, within every human being, there is a certain weakness. It is a weakness that exposes itself more when you're alone. And I have figured out that part of the reason I do the things I do, and cannot seem to conquer that one word — myself — is because ... is because ... I am a coward."
He stopped. He stood very still in the middle of the room, thinking about what he had just said, probably wondering if he should have said it.

 

Aside from alot that have been mentioned I felt very bad for Gerry Cooney after the Holmes fight, he was such a nice guy that felt like he had let everybody down and was worthless, something he would've felt his whole life thanks to his POS Dad. Added to this of course was him going off the rails after the fight.

 

An old battle torn Jeff Fenech getting stopped by a nothing punch from Phil Holiday. The same Fenech that a few years ago was walking through Nelson's and Callejas's bombs with ease.
