Yes - he had his jaw broken during the first Norton fight. Lasted through to the end, but he lost the decision quite fairly.

Joe Frazier got up 6 times afrter George Foreman nearly took his head off in Jamaica.

Jess Willard had his jaw broken in four places, 7 teeth knocked out, two broken ribs, liver and kidney damage and a fractured eye socket in the FIRST ROUND against Jack Dempsey.

Unbelievably, he gutted through, absorbed a horrific beating and was finally pulled out in the third or fourth.

You're right, everybody's human ........ it's how people respond that differentiates the greats from mere mortals!
