Frazier's blindness

I said one eye not both eyes

 

It was, according to the account, on the bad eye but post-surgery.

 

To fool people?

 

i wrote one eye too as you can see from my quote, so why did you even write that reply "not both eyes"?

you appear lost. why u writing nonsense replies? take some time out and reply when u've sorted out whats causing this.

 

No, as I understand it, because it required a contact lens for him to see properly.
The surgery got rid of the cataract but didn't leave him with perfect vision. The chance for good vision lay in wearing the contact lens.

Holmes's story is similar. Apparently he had retina surgery in 1992 and post-surgery he had to wear a contact lens for a while because his eye was out of shape. According to Holmes, a Holyfield punch in the 3rd round got rid of the contact lens.

Crazy stories but in professional boxing this doesn't really surprise me, sadly.

 

What the f#ck is your problem with me. Im not a F#cking english major. Im at work outside and trying to reply the best I can given the circumstances. If u have an issue than dont respond to me

 

Yea meaning the lense was in the good eye!!! Use your head a little bit then you will c what I mean instead of trying to find a reason to stomp on me

 

Maybe, but he may have been concerned about how letting a boxer under his guidance fight while visually impaired would reflect on him.

 

then next time dont write both eyes.

if you write something then you only have yourself to blame for writing it.

 

I didnt write both eyes i said a contact lense not contact lenses

 

Me either. He went to decent lengths putting that forward.

 

Possibly but he has a lot of reputation to protect in other ways too. If he came out as an out and out liar on something serious like this he'd take a hit. Certainly for me he would.

 

Having one blurry eye and one clear eye is probably fine for boxing. You could see detail with the good eye, but the blurry eye would be fine for peripheral vision and sensing movement. A contact lens doesn't fix blindness obv but would help after old school cataract surgery. The technology is better now so the contact isn't needed (see Margarito).

 

Look, you don't repeatedly slip the jab of the fastest Heavy in history in the F .O.T.C being blind in one eye. It sounds good, but unless he's Daredevil (shout out to comic book fans) it simply wasn't true.

 

yeh you claimed i had referred to both eyes, thats what i am referring to you. very obviously.

dont make up what I say in future, and you'll be ok.
