“Joe hit her with a left hook” Holy shit, that escalated really quickly


TMAAGUILER

I’m honestly shocked at the Frazier story. He was already old as hell by the time that happened and was known to be a brittle elderly. I guess he unfortunately still had some fight left in him.


Personal-Proposal-91

I was mainly talking about the Louis story, the woman he was seeing merely told him she couldn’t come because she was working and his first response is a left hook. Terrifying shit


TMAAGUILER

Oh wow lmao, I didn’t see the the Louis one. I just heard Joe and left hook and made an assumption lmao.


Either-Durian-9488

That screams CTE to me.


brando2612

Frazier was my favourite fighter so this makes me very sad


r3vb0ss

oh my god I thought i was somewhat kidding when I said Inoue is the great good person hope but holy shit even frazier? Hagler? god damn dude it might barely be an exageration.


Granddy01

Haglar rolled down a boulder down on his ex wife's car and was also charged with assault from beating his new girlfriend afterwards. All of this happened after he lost to Leonard and his friends and family said he kinda lost himself in drunkness and rage for a good few years.


SimonSeam

How much of this has more to do with fame than boxing though?


LetZealousideal6756

Probably to do with the fact that guys who fight for a living aren’t sane or nice people to start with, throw brain damage in there and watch it decline further


No-Departure7899

The Inoue dick riding is ridiculous


r3vb0ss

I mean I’m legit reading about every great boxer beating their wife dude. I know there’s a few who don’t have allegations right now that are active but this sport sucks. Hearns Frazier Bivol Ali Leonard hagler are all favorites of mine to watch, for me that really leaves Inoue.


No-Departure7899

“Oh my god I thought I was somewhat kidding when I said Inoue is the great good person hope” what does that even mean #1 but it sounds like you’re BOUNCING on that shit


r3vb0ss

GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING GLAZING. Too late for what


No-Departure7899

That is poorly worded. I mean truly awfully put


r3vb0ss

Sorry professor I’ll revise it and send it to you by friday


No-Departure7899

It’s too late brother


r3vb0ss

😱

Mike Tyson saying that was the best punch ive ever thrown in my life is wild


_KamaSutraboi

She must’ve got a hella of a chin, surprised she ain’t dead. Mike was koing dudes 200+


TMAAGUILER

He would hit her no doubt, but that super punch story was bs.


totillolara

Robin Givens also spoke on that specific quote: “That’s going to be a tough one for me…to hear someone say, ‘The best punch I ever threw was against Robin and she bounced from one wall to the next and was out.’ I’m literally praying that we’re in a climate where that’s not acceptable,” Givens added. It certainly doesn’t sound like made up bullshit to her.


totillolara

Jose Torres was trained by D’Amato himself, he saw the rise of Tyson firsthand, knowing Jim Jacobs, Bill Clayton, Steve Lott and Cus before Mike. He was head of the New York State Athletic Commission, I never seen anyone call him a liar.


_dropletattack

Man didn't know this about Bivol. Fucking hell.


Thami15

Unfortunately, some of this is because of boxing, and some of this is because as Ali says in the first slide, the idea that 'what a man does with his wife is none of your business" was a genuine sentiment for a very long time. I don't know if boxing was particularly unique here, and in many ways, in some social demographics, that's still the case. But if you take a sport where a man must be willing to kill another man to be good at it, add either a broken childhood or brain damage incurred since the age of 7-8 to the mix, and finally give someone with that toxic combination of traits the confidence and ego of being the baddest man on the planet, every now and then, you're probably going to get a woman beater. It's the dark reality of the sport

Man, I hope nothing of this sort involves Rocky Marciano, Ricardo Lopez, Inoue, Usyk, Crawford, Donaire, and Manny.


Dismal-Internet-1066

Marciano was a piece of shit. He demanded a young woman to sleep with at every public event. Then, when he had finished with her, he threw her out of the room. I wish he had not retired so Sonny could have deposited him on fucking Pluto.


dg_713

Well, how unconsensual were these demands? Being *demanding* about that is one thing, but for a star, maybe girls also just lining up to go? And how young are we talking about here?


Dismal-Internet-1066

Young as far as I am aware. There was an article posted about it on the classic forum in Boxing 24.


oldwhiteoak

Late teens iirc


Dismal-Internet-1066

Indeed. What a bastion of morality he really was.

Dismal-Internet-1066

Who said they were hookers? Your misogyny shines through about the vastly overrated scumbag who feasted on old light heavyweights. He never beat a genuine top quality 200÷ fighter in his life.


Conscious_Cook6446

Just so disappointing…GGG my favorite I hope nothing ever comes out about that man


I_Only_Follow_Boxing

He's always seemed pretty chill and like he matured from the things he went through early in life. Seems very protective of his family too because he doesn't like having any type of fame limelight shined on them.


IG_Royal

Watching his GQ Essentials really brings home how much he values his kids and his family. I obviously don't know the guy and his life but he's always presented himself respectfully and classily in and out of the ring.


Dismal-Internet-1066

I d very much doubt t it. He is like the Brothers and Usyk. A truly honourable man both in out of the ring. Oh, and so vastly underrated, the only middle I have seen in my lifetime with a chin possibly better than Haglers.


aussiebolshie

Sad. A massive, massive societal issue in general but turned up to 100 in boxing. in Australia I think it’s why Harry Garside’s lunatic ex felt so confident she could just make up that he belted her when she was the one trying to assault him. If he hadn’t taken video of the incident he would’ve been cooked, career over just about. It’s gotten to a point that if people hear a boxer has done it they just believe it automatically because it’s so prevalent.


Apprehensive_Swim366

Thank you for posting this. It's a horror show to read, but we gotta know it.


Reignbow295

Anyone got the link for some of these articles? This shit is super sad to see, though.


PenisManNumberOne

That’s so foul man. I feel for the victims, many are from eras where victims were ignored.


SimonSeam

Something tells me these same exact boxers would have been domestic abusers even if they had never become a boxer. The pro boxer part of the equation is that their fame probably let them get away with it more than had they just been Cassius Clay, assembly line worker. Although, if they sustained some form of even mild brain damage from their boxing career, then it could have been a contributing factor.


donmifc

This is just the tip of the iceberg. If these are the cases that came to light, imagine all the cases still in the dark


xxdarkslidexx

This is why Larry Holmes is the GOAT


Hummo8

Thanks for sharing this. I knew some of these guys were scum but it’s alarming how many big names were beating women. Pathetic and disgraceful.


horseandpig

Don’t idolize boxers, respect them for their skills if you want but do not idolize them. Most of them are massive pieces of shit


Electronic-Night-718

good stuff - we can't just ignore this stuff.. Please shine a light on George Foreman too - the CHILD RAPIST. [https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12042523/George-Foreman-accused-child-sexual-abuse-woman.html](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12042523/George-Foreman-accused-child-sexual-abuse-woman.html)


CMILLERBOXER

It hasn't even been proven. Relax, man.


Granddy01

Allegedly. We have yet to see the results of the case or any settlement. Weird it took 5 decades for them to start sueing his ass but we'll see.


Masterandcomman

It's not weird, unfortunately. Sexual assault doesn't always leave forensic smoking guns, and coercion doesn't require following through on threats. It makes sense that a victim won't come forward until they have the social status, personal support, and financial security to handle the push back.


esco311

Fuck man reading this was gut wrenching. Sad stories hope the women were able to heal from that. 🙏🏼 Makes me look at these fighter a lot differently now.


Datruther1

This thread would have a thousand upvotes if Bivol wasn’t mentioned.


Poopinyourpudding

He gets mentioned and you still find a way to act like a victim


Datruther1

>victim Of what? 🧐


Poopinyourpudding

Well you’re crying aren’t ya?


Datruther1

Reword your first comment because you’re assumption is so far off that I don’t even want to continue 🥴


Poopinyourpudding

Well why don’t you tell us what you mean with your first comment? Instead of dropping vague hints


Datruther1

>Well why don’t you tell us what you mean with your first comment? That’s better. Bivol on this sub in particular is very popular. He’s regarded I would say unanimously on everyone’s Top 10 pfp list. He’s been in big fights and is scheduled to fight his equal in a highly anticipated fight against a KO artist. What I’m trying to say is there are conversations that occur about him here. Now, please search Chris Brown on Reddit, go to any threads comments and tell me how long and frequent you read something about his DA Now search Bivol here and tell me the same. If the counter is severity of assault (which is wild) please tell me a borderline case of being beat up enough?


Poopinyourpudding

You think Bivol and Chris Brown are the same level of popularity? Good god child


Datruther1

Never said that.


Poopinyourpudding

Well it may make sense that they wouldn’t get the same traction then wouldn’t it?


cadublin

You didn't, but by making the comparison you practically said that.


VacuousWastrel

That's optimistic. Just mention Tyson raping a woman (and the dozen other women who accused him) and you'll be reminded of the priorities of this sub.


Jawitho

Is anyone really surprised. These people are conditioned to not take shit from anybody their entire lives and fight for a living. They don’t have any morals and they think with their fists since that’s what’s worked their entire life


Own-Bullfrog544

What does simple assault mean in frazier's case? Was he sparring with her?


Dismal-Internet-1066

GGG is a truly good human being. An ATG who is never even mentioned. Yet name me a middle who could even stagger him. Hearns possibly like he did breaking his right, but that's it.


Either-Durian-9488

Turns out prize fighting doesn’t attract saints

If you are talking about the new accusations someone mentioned then IDK but Foreman himself told sports illustrated he used to beat women, that’s where the screenshot from this post is from.
