Any of you boxing fans out there probably heard about this one... Look at what Evander Holyfield did to his opponent (Hasim Rahman) last Saturday. The fight had to be stopped.

Yeah, its pretty damn grotesque, but isn't that why you're still gawking at it? Incidently, Tyson claimed he bit Holyfield way back when because Holyfield was headbutting him -something Holyfield has been known to do, and it seems like Mike may have just not wanted to look like this guy (they counted at least 2 headbutts in the fight).

Ever heard of the term "Baseball-sized lump."

Cartoons weren't kidding, folks... They can happen -if you're hit hard enough.

Dude, what the hell is that thing filled with? Blood? Did they determine that was caused by the headbutts? Damn Evander and his cheap illegal tactics to try and stop the match in his favor due to his opponents innability to see. Headbutting and opponent in boxing in order to swell his eyes shut...blah. Use your fists you big pussy!

I want to pop it!

Holyfield, is one damn cheap boxer. A known headbutt artist who got his ear swallowed for grabbing and butting. He needs to retire so we have the luxury of not being able to see his victims like this "unforntunate bastard".

Yep, thats a hematoma. It's what happens when your head is hit very hard causing blood vessels to break and the blood clots and causes that.

It wasn't holyfields fault anyways. Both guys keep leading with there heads so someone was gonna get it.

It didn't even look like much of headbutt at all. Rahmnan must have a sensitive cranium.

Evander Holyfield is dangerouse. Thats why Mike had to bite his ear off.

I was watching that fight and man did it look bad. When holyfield accidently head butted him the second he did the swelling started, you could actually see it swell up.

My head once looked like that when I held my breath for too long and passed out and bashed my head on the edge of a coffee table. Doctor said I might have brain damage.

I like stories.

Yeah right its never Holyfields fault.It was just a coincidence the he viciously butted Tysons eyes to shreds in 2 fights, its a coincidence he butted Lewis in 2 points to a stage where Lewis said "Holyfield is the biggest cheat in boxing and I know why Tyson retaliated".....and now this

SpimasterX, You're damn right! Is there any stronger punch than the Galactical Phantom ? NO. Ralph should kick Holifield, Tyson, Lewis Asses for sure! Oh! It's just an SNK character! :D :rolleyes:
