    Between the two I'd say Williard took a far worse beating than Frazier did.
    Dempsey was brutal and unlike George, he was allowed to stand over opponents as there was no neutral corner rule.

    But their fights were too short to consider them the worst.

    Tyson vs Douglas was a sustained beating that lasted 10 rounds.
    Vitaly vs. Briggs was also a sustained beating that should have been stopped sooner.
    Pacquiao vs. Margarito was another sustained beating
    Hopkins vs. Trinidad qualifies.

    Generally the longer the fight goes the worse off it is.

    Indeed, sustained beatings are the worst.
    Holmes vs Ali was another one, with only Ali's amazing chin holding him on his feet.

    Willard had his face reconstructured. He had several broken bones including his orbital.

    Willard, of course. He went down and then dempsey would be right on him when he got up.

    How anyone can doubt Dempsey had his gloves loaded against Willard is beyond me.

    based on these, willard took the worst beating

    all time wolgasts beating of nelson or grebs destruction of tunney rate pretty highly
