    I second that. Great fight.

      Michael Moorer was putting a beating on Foreman up til the final round. Seeing Foreman slowly stagger back to his corner was sad and I had to wonder how long they were going to let it continue.

        Was there ever a fighter who collapsed after he won a fight from a blood clot?
        Kevin Kelley against Derrick Gainer in their first fight. They were going to stop it until he pulled out a dramatic one punch ko. Same for Arturo Gatti against Wilson Rodriguez and Mike Weaver vs. John Tate.

          Gatti - Ward 1 ????

          Both guys took a lot of punishment in there. Ward got the decision but everybody thinks a draw would have probably been a better decision.

            I remember in the Kelley-Gainer fight Kevin took a bad beating. That punch or thumb he got hit with was sick, I don't think I've ever seen an eye close that fast before.

              Danny Lopez in his fight with Juan Malvarez was getting hit with everything thrown in his direction before pulling a big time one punch KO.

              Micheal Grant was also getting pounded by Andrew Golata before landing some bombs of his own and getting Golata to quit. Tommy Morrison's bout with Joe Hipp is also worth a mention, had his jaw and both his hands broken in that bout.

                Arthur Abraham vs Edison Miranda I is a good one.

                  Ray Mercer against Bert Cooper, Ray won but Cooper left his face bloodied and swollen.

                    Muangchai Kitikasem took some crazy punishment and was down three times against Jung-Koo Chang but his power came through in the twelfth when he KO'd Chang.

                    Wilfredo Gomez got his eyes bloodied and swollen up against Pintor an Ko'd the iron-chinned Mexican in the 13th.

                      Rogers Mtagwa against Tomas Villa. Got the ****e kicked out of him before pulling it out in the last round and looked horrible after the fight. I honestly thought that he was going to have something wrong with him after that one.
