    Mention some great wars that were also super bloody.

    So it is 2 things combined, so Gatti vs Ward doesn´t make it because there was no blood. Same with Bowe vs Holyfield.

    I don´t think I can mention one of the top of my head !

    In the modern era, it's Galindez-Kates I FTW. Just take a look at the ref's shirt in the final round:

    If only for one round, Young got super bloodied after a slashing uppercut from Cooney.
    When he returned to his corner, the doctor immediately waved it off, if I remember correctly.

    Mark Kaylor v Dwight Walker - the ref looked like he was wearing a butcher's apron at the end.

    Ill add Diego Corrales vs Joel Casamayor. This fight was so bloody the ref had to stop the fight after round 6th because of how much blood Chico lost.

    Pavlik had cuts on both eyes against Sergio Martinez and had half his face drenched in blood from the 8th round onwards iirc:
