As bad as this? This content is protected also, this was a ko and not even boxing, but fits the category of candidate for 'worst beating' I think. The guy went from 'regular' to 'cronenberg' in about 6 minutes This content is protected
Calzaghe vs Lacy was a good example of death by a thousand paper cuts. Whilst I concede Lacy was vastly overhyped, he genuinely was a better fighter pre Calzaghe, than he was post him.
If we are talking in colour, yeah, Vitali over Shannon. Vitali literally made him into his son. This content is protected I do not understand the science of it.
I think there was some story behind it too. I think They had a little bet, or if not - at least some sort of argument - where Joppy said that there's no way B-Hop will stop him. Turns out He was right, but not sure if it was worth it.
Think Briggs v Klitschko is the poster boy for bad beatings. Lol But it was painful to watch. Chavez V Camacho was a bit of an ass kicking over the distance.
While Lacy was a hype job that fight should have been stopped. It made matters worse when he hurt his shoulder in his next fight which took away his power.
Pacquiao-Margarito was very brutal. Margarito had some nice moments, hurting Manny to the body, but got the crap beaten out of him. He suffered a fractured orbital bone. I also think this was the last we really saw of Manny at his best, as he already had a lot of wear-and-tear on him to begin with and it was still fairly tough physically for him. Tyson-Ruddock 2 was actually fairly competitive, Ruddock landed his share of hard shots and took some rounds, but he took a dreadful beating. He suffered a broken jaw, one eye was badly swollen, and I think he may have suffered a broken rib too. Howard Cosell quit commentating boxing after the beating in Holmes-Cobb. Tex Cobb said he gave the boxing world a big gift by causing Howard to quit. Vitali-Briggs was grotesque.
