I was in the 4th row from the ring this day in Erie and no knockout was more brutal than Roberto Duran knocking out Lou Bizarro. And I was at the MOORE FIGHT but Bizarro was crushing
Here's a fairly obscure one, Acelino Freitas winning his first world title back in 1999 against Anatoly Alexandrov. This content is protected
It has to be Griffith over Paret because of his arm getting caught in the ropes. The sheer # of punches Emile got off in a few seconds. It's ugly. Don't watch it. Then the Doctor at ringside I guess with old school education jumped into the ring and added to The Kid suffering by shooting him with adreline and cause him agony. He was already gone and he brought him back to life. It wasn't good.
I wished Duran could have divided up that punishment 80/20 with the 80 going to the sleaze promoter Don Elbaum who fixed the fight. They were gonna steal Duran's title. The ring was the size of Texas. Bizzaro just needed to run and run. I guess he got tired. Ray Arcel took one look at the ring snapped at Elbaum "I thought you had class!"
