I was going to say the same thing about Trinidad-Thiam. However, you are wrong! By the time the bell sounded ending the first round, that eye was swollen shut!

Sebastion Lujon having his ear almost taken off by Antonio Margarito was pretty grim.

And of course there was Arthur Abraham parading his new slack jaw look against Miranda

I've shown that Lujan picture to just about everyone I know. Discusting but Lujan wore it like a badge.

Here's that one I mentioned from the first boxing world cup. It wasn't Vorapin, it was Phosawan who was facing Fernando Montiel. The pictures don't give you a full picture of the swelling, but they give you the idea. Montiel has a little mouse, but check out the right side of Phosawan's face.

I remember a fight with Hagler where both of his eyes were shit and he wouldn't quit he wouldn't let his corner throw in the towel.

Then another one with Kevin Kelley his corner throwing in the towel. Sad sight Kelley telling his corner "my eyes are almost shut" and his corner said "fights over kid...there's always tomorrow.." sad because Kevin looked heartbroken after that one

Just thought I'd add Morales pic to this thread...
Seeing as we got a nice little collection going.

Shit, his eye was even worse than I thought from the footage. So Morales genuinely almost beat Maidana with one eye. Ha. What does this say about Maidana and even Khan. Interesting. If Morales had of picked up a cut in that at any stage during the fight it would have been curtains without a doubt. Probably would have opened up like a muff. Ha.
