    Default The Dark side of Boxing.......!!!!!

    The losses of brain cells , madness and organs loosening those are just a somes of gravely consequence inside of boxing......
    In February 15 of 1986 , Wilfredo Benitez Ex-World Champ in the JWW Div. faced in Quebec with a Canadian Mathew Hilton , in where Benitez with 28 years old , had been receiving a punishment by Hilton during the whole fight.........
    But nothing prepared him for what happened him in the 9th round.....
    Just missing 15 sec..of the round , Hilton gave him a left power hook to Benitez chin and that shot make Benitez fall down dismay , while his head been making the movement as bobblehead.......
    Benitez with his face in floor , scatterbrain , with missing looks , shacked his head like he doesn't believe what happened to him and then tried to get up and felt again........
    And that was the End of the fight and for Benitez......

    The Brain damage is the most that worry us because is irreversible. The Brain Cells die and theres no way how to avoid it..
    The Damage is permanent..........
    Here is some pics of Wifredo Benitez with his mother.......

    That's really sad.

    I think Muhamad Ali, Meldrick Taylor, and Rolando Navarete are experiencing the same thing. I'm sure there's lots of others.

    I guess that's what most fighters get when they've been into many wars with lots of unforgiving punishments.
