    Marciano hit Moore with his forearm right before knocking him out with 2 left hooks

    I'm sure I've seen Wilder hit people with his forearm, though I can't think of any specific examples

    A Roldan forearm caused Hagler's slip. He wasn't hurt tho.

    Me, sparring when I was 14 years old. The other guy was throwing what could best be described as a looping overhand right. I avoided the glove but his wrist hit me on top of the head. Made me see stars.

    I was also hit by something like this, but in sparring in my old kickboxing class. He hit me with a 3 piece combo, left hook, knee to the ribs then one can only be described as a spinning forearm shot that hit me in the temple. I fell back with all my weight on my right arm, and chipped a part of my wrist

    I feel Reznick is not getting the response he wanted.

    The Truth copped a few smashes against Bruno when they fought. Frank even got warned it got so bad and the fight was in England!

    Posting this just for fun not to prove a point. It may be Rocky's follow-through rather than a forearm, but then so might Carnera's uppercut against Sharkey:

    Not sure how this will link, it's the picture where Marciano smashes Walcott with a left hook or forearm

    If memory serves Bruno was hurt by a forearm/elbow just before he went down in the first round vs Tyson in '89.
