Thread: Best boxing carnage

When Morrison almost got decapitated by Ray Mercer

Ricky Hatton....

Marcianos split nose....

Thats it those are the ones I had in my boxing pictures....

That I remember Gomez looked really bad after the Sanchez fight, Tapia after the MAB fight looked like he had been whipped on his face and upperbody, MTaylor after the 1st JCC fight looked beaten from the face really bad....

Vincent Pettway's knockout over Simon Brown in round 6.. Brown lay on the floor unconscious throwing punches like he was still in the match

Henry Cooper after Ali match.. deep cuts force the stoppage

CC!!!!

I have been looking for that pic forever. That is when the blood is wiped away too. Even on old grainy cameras you can see blood bubbling out of that cut and the cut flapping up and down everytime Marciano breathed. Not to mention Charles was hitting Marciano at will. I have always heard about the wonders of Marciano and seen his record picked apart and heard all the arguments of how vastly overrated he was, bt now that I have seen his fights, the guy was an absolute legend! I never realized how exciting of a fighter he was, he was Arturo Gatti without the boxing ability. He was just tough and that's all he was, and he had amazing power.

This pic doesn't do it justice and I will try to find a better one but the Basillio cut and swelling in his bout versus Robinson is probably one of the most famed cases of a fighter's face being absolutely mangled. Again the pic doesn't do it any sort of justice but it's the only one on my comp. And I can't find any better but if you've seen the fight you know. The swelling was the size of a grapefruit.

And I don't have a pic but one of the worst swellings outside of Rahman and Vargas I've seen was Pramuansak Phosawan against Fernando Monteil in that World Cup of Boxing. That fight was allowed to go the distance when it should have been stopped 5 rounds earlier. The growth was massive and spanned from the outside of the eye to the back of his head. Phosawan was wincing in pain everytime he get hit in that swelling and Monteil actually stopped going to that side of the head and just worked the jab. I'm a fan of Raul Caiz and think he is one of the better refs in all of boxing, but he slipped up this fight imo.
