    I remember watching Eubank vs Thompson the other day and Chris had Thompson crashing to the canvas and was severely hurt but Chris just stood right there and did absolutely nothing.

    Didn't try to chase him, finish him or pressured him. Nothing, absolutely nothing.

    Zab Judah getting KO'd by Tszyu (a funny moment in itself), then throwing a tantrum and lobbing a stool at the ref.

    The outcome of Stribling vs. McTigue was quite bizarre.

    I wanted to mention this, but I remembered another bizarre situation regarding Holyfield. Biting Holyfield's ear.
    As well as Golota's double justified disqualification against Bowe.

    We’ve often seen head butts - but the ones Fireman Jim Flynn consistently launched at Johnson with deluded impunity were insane.

    Johnson was the epitome of cool taking those head butts whilst continuing to slice and dice Flynn as he pleased.
