Jones-Hall will always be the first fight that pops in my mind when I think of a bad beating. The ass whuppin Bowe gave Jorge Luis Gonzalez was pretty bad too.
Ali vs Cleveland Williams Ali vs Frazier 3 (both took punishment, but frazier absorbed heaps of it later in the fight) Tyson vs Biggs - anyone who lasts a few rounds against a peak mike is in for a beating Lloyd Honeygahn vs Don Curry - a huge shock, but Curry took an asswhuppin Marvin Hagler vs Alan Minter - terrible beatdown, some racist 'fans' went beserk after the result. Jack Johnson vs Stanley Ketchel was pretty bad aswell. as was Dempsey vs Willard.
hopkins-joppy - i really thought joppy was going to be killed in that ring that night the way his head was expanding darchinyan vs burgos and guerrero - both fights i screamed at the tv for the ref to stop the fight cuz vic was obliterating them round after round merqui sosa vs prince charles williams - ive talked about these fights enough on here...they both beat the **** outta each other
Yeah that was one frightening beat-down. Perhaps the most prolonged beating was the one Battling Nelson got when he lost the LW championship to Ad Wolgast. At least the newspaper reports is gory stuff.
