Speaking of the Judah stoppage due to his cut over the right eye, what are the worst cuts you've ever seen in a televised fight? I mean, boxing by nature can be bloody sometimes. We're all used to seeing some blood in fights. But has there ever been a cut in a fight that made you instinctively look away?
Two cuts come to my mind right away. One was just this past Saturday night. Man, oh man... that one punch by Dirrell immediately opened up the ugliest gash I've ever seen on someone's forehead. Hell, even the commentators thought Paschall's nose was broken, but that was because the blood so quickly squirted out and ran down the guy's face. The doctor even had to dodge some blood that Paschall inadvertently spit out while the doctor was examining him. That was gruesome. That fight HAD to be stopped, or the guy would've collapsed due to lack of blood.
The other one that comes to mind was the cut eye that Vitali Klitschko suffered against Lennox Lewis. Geez... when they showed a closeup of that eye, it damn near looked like the guy had grown another eye just above it. Again... no way that fight could've been allowed to continue.
