Muhammad Ali's retirement was a shock to me, his lasts two fights were hard to watch. A sad ending to a great career. Another instance has to be the death of Johnny Owen. What is the most heartbreaking moment in your opinion? Below is a video were I discuss the 10 most heartbreaking moments: This content is protected
Tony Bellew beating a literally crippled David Haye and acting like he just beat prime Lewis, Tyson and Holyfield at the same time in a 3 on 1 handicap match. Luckily Usyk came and avenged the defeat like the ghost of unified cruiserweights past.
Siarhei Liakhovich imploding late into the 12th round against Shannon Briggs and losing his WBO title. Sad for two reasons. Briggs has another fluke world title win. I'm a big White Wolf fan.
Ali should have retired after beating Foreman. He beat George as much with his wits as much as his fists. The way he was made to keep on fighting was WRONG!!!
And not just any 12th round stoppage, but falling out of the ring and I think onto some kind of sound equipment or something. Shannon Briggs, two-time Heavyweight World Champion. It sounds prestigious but he was never close to being the man of the division, or even top 5.
Sergio Martinez being retired by Miguel Cotto. Chavez Sr. being retired by Grover Wiley, Ali-Holmes, Tyson-McBride and Marquez-Vasquez 4.
Haye is the poster boy for irrational boxing fans looking to denigrate a fighter's abilities because they don't like the man.
Gonzalez getting destroyed by Rungvisai. Yamanaka getting destroyed in both Nery fights. Joshua getting hit by a lucky punch from the Gods. The deaths of Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier. Etc.
I know he fought on and still managed a few more glory days but morales after the 3rd knockdown by manny in their 3rd fight looking at someone at ringside with his arms wrapped round his legs and he gives a look and shakes his head.. Like he knew he didn't have it anymore.. Always gets me that
