Its got to be life altering, no doubt. After Griffith killed Paret he never had the same instinct to finish a fighter and he lived with guilt for years. He met Benny's son years later and was overcome with grief. If you don't know the story behind it than look it up, its tragic and understandable at the same time. These guys had some real bad blood leading up to their fight. You can also see the fight on YouTube. Its the second Emile Griffith-Benny Paret fight.
