Thread: Ever in the history of boxing..?

Has a fighter injured himself in the walk in to a fight and the fight has been called off? I know its a random question, but im just curious

Monte Barrett came close...

I know that one, that was funny!! thats what made me think about it

Bruce Seldon against Mike Tyson.

No, wait... he actually got into the ring. But I bet he wishes he would have thought of the idea on the way to the ring.

Can't think of one. The only thing I can think of is MMA, where many years back Kevin Randleman slipped on some pipes backstage and knocked himself out before a UFC HW Championship fight lol

Bruce Seldon did actually injure himself , on the way to the ring to face Tyson.
He got a hernia because of the extreme amount of SHIT he was carrying in his pants.

LMAO!

It wasn't a TOTAL loss, however. Word is he got invited to a tryout with the U.S. Olympic Diving Team shortly after the (cough) "fight" was over.

In that case so did Bruno ... and Spinks.

One fighter got cut by the camera man during the round and the ref called it off.

I can't remember the fight or the boxers but I do seem to recall a fighter passing out in his dressing room just before he was heading out for his ring walk. The had weight drained himself to much and had passed out while in the dressing room. Probably saved his own life by doing so.

I remember the Spinks-Qawi fight geting cancelled 30 min before they were supposed to go into the ring. I can't remember the reason I'd have to grab the Ring magazine from the collection and do some research.

A young Adolpho Washington getting battered by Virgil hill yeh.As if that wasn't enough,the camera reached out and cut him right after the 10th.

Surly this weirdness has happened,vaugly remember a guy getting poked in the eye badly by some over zealous fan on way in,for the life of me cannot be sure who it was.Had more than a few leave the ring in handcuffs as police show up at the fight to arrest them after.

There is some fighters the public were willing it to happen to, but alas it didnt.

Naz Hamed falling off his rug would have been one time for sure.

Or him getting all tied up in the ropes on one of those backflips into the ring would have made my day.
