Worst cuts you've ever seen.

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.

It's crazy how they let Klitschko keep going even though his whole eyelid was gone. I was really hoping they would let Paschall get one more round, but it just was leaking like a faucet. I found these online real quick:

Jessie James Leija (vs. Ward)
Mentioned Klitschko (vs. Lewis)
Jujan (vs. Margarito). . . This one is pretty bad
Marciana (vs. Charles) . . . His nose is split in half
Winkey Wright

Good quick research on that, DC.
Welcome to the forum.

:cool:

Come to think of it, Tyson's biting a piece of Holyfield's ear off should be mentioned here. That was pretty grotesque.

:-X

Marciano had a miracle worker for a cutman, and had that emergency reservoir to kick it up a notch,

By the way, does anyone remember that nasty cut from what's-his-name in the first season of the Contender?

Corrales's Lip vs Casa was fugly

barrios vs freitas, barrios looked eff up.

Henry Cooper v Ali was a blood bath!

Anthony Jones "KO" of Vince Phillips.......looked like third eyeball

Marquez needed 70 stitches for this one. I've seen worse, but 70 stitches is a ton of work. Look at BHop in the background just grinning.

Ali vs. Henry Cooper. It was a bloodbath.

Cassamayor vs. Katsidis

Was that JMM the Terdsack fight?That was nasty.

Marciano again, but from the front. He's giving an interview!! How about going to the hospital??

Gatti vs. Gomez

I remember watching the corner try to pull the skin back over this one and use the vaseline like putty but the blood kept breaking the seal. The ref was standing right there - but they let them keep trying. . .

Pacquiao vs. Marquez
