Worst pre-existing injuries fighters entered fights with?

[elfag]

The sergio martinez comeback thread got me thinking about his Cotto fight with his knees completely busted, he was hobbling and could barely walk that fight and came in with supports on both knees.

I guess there are a ton of "is it really fully healed" type of injuries, like fighters who broke orbital bones.


Are there any obvious ones you could think of that make you go, how did the commission clear this guy to fight?

Ryan Garcia sore V@gina

Heliand vs. Charlo. Dude was limping badly during his ring walk. And could barely stand up in the ring!!! Worse than Sergio by far!!

Gamboa vs. Tank

[Tatabanya]

Curtis Harper vs Efe Ajagba.

Harper's fecal incontinence reared its ugly head as soon as he looked at his opponent.

- -Cotto got his first gift vs Yuri Foreman who literally was going down while maneuvering on the most obvious bum leg in history.

Mercante Jr completely botched the fight making Yuri continue falling down in spite of his corner throwing in the towel.

Chavez Sr walking into the ring vs Oscar 1 with a one inch long oozing cut over his eye. DKing promotion...

Patterson's back (vs Ali) - Buddy McGrit with a NOT properly repaired rotator cuff - any fight Ali took after Spinks II (does brain damage count?).

Curtis Harper vs Efe Ajagba.

Harper's fecal incontinence reared its ugly head as soon as he looked at his opponent.

Hahahahahhahahaha!
