    What is the most punishment a boxer took in a single fight?

    Which boxer took the most punishment in a single fight... of all time?

    In the history of boxing, who -- in your professional opinion -- took the most punishment in a single bout? From bell to bell, pillar to post, who was beaten up the most?

    Larry Holmes v Tex Cobb off the top of my head, Howard Cosell quit commentating because it was so one sided.

    Cobb had one of boxings great chins.

            Dempsey was pretty much allowed to stand over Willard as he was getting up from a count.. bad stuff.

              Vitali beat up Briggs pretty damn badly. He put him in intensive care.

                    Pac v Marg
                    Joe v Lacey
                    Lewis v Tyson probably deserves a mention

                    Quite a few really.
