Vicious Slugfests

Just saw this one and it is rough:

shit quality is all that's out there on this one but what a slugfest

Forgot how good Golota was besides the mental fragility.

For sheer drama in a quality fight... I'll submit Round 15 of Larry Holmes vs Ken Norton... June 9th 1978.

Good move on that one Titofan. That fight (and esp. that round) always gave me chills.

not a heavyweight bought but this one always stands out as one of my favorites....

I miss everything about fights like this. The casual predictable roll out of top boxing on a weekend afternoon. Production, instant fighter build/short bios. Fun scrap

vicious, vicious slugfest, the kind we love boxing for:

here is a vicious, vicious slugfest which I had not seen until now:

https://youtu.be/EkNwGdwSv6A RIP Mitch and Hamed US network debut! On a side, Liles and Roy would have been a decent 168 Unification :scratchchin:.

Merqui Sosa vs Prince Charles Williams was stopped by the ref and declared a draw because he felt both had taken too much punishment to continue. That was the first time that had ever happened and I don’t think it has happened since. How brutal is a fight if the ref declares both guys unfit to continue?

That was a rough fight. Shame is that Mergui was well in control and actually boxing on his toes last couple in spots albeit with a badly swollen right eye. Got Williams in the rematch too.

What a first round and what a fight! Not seen that fight before Tic but that was a vicious slug-fest.

i was surprised it went that long after that first round. the fight was part of the contender season three tv show

Between Bika and Greene, Codrington's been to space more time than most astronauts...

Steve & Beanz, this was the fight I was talking about with the French commentators

Wilfredo Gomez vs Lupe Pintor: Dec 3, 1982

Quality Tito! THE last "super card" with multiple HOFs in what should still be a major fight venue N.O Superdome. All time great fight with Pintor coming up for it and Gomez would not be denied late.
