    Bramble said Rosario thumbed his eye when he got KO'd.

      Hypocrisy is a second language here in NSB.
      I saw what caused Matthysse's swollen eye, it was a small, quick left hook on the inside. I would be surprised that something so small caused such a hematoma, but we are talking about the GARSH.

          I wasn't specifically referring to one fight really but rather was using it as an example. Is there any fight where a thumb to the eye was clearly visible?

              The infamous "thumb to the eye" is sort of like bigfoot, elusive, and ultimately probably just a myth.

                Or maybe more prevalent with the older, smaller gloves?

                      at the time of the eye injury he was ahead on a lot of people's cards and at worst even on the others. so you were wrong. just admit it and never post again. no hard feelings.
