Fights in which the winner was worse off than the loser...

...and not necessarily robberies. What are some examples that come to mind?

 

Bowe-Golota

 

Griffin/Jones I

 

I suspect Leonard was feeling the physical effects of Leonard/Hagler a lot more than Hagler a week later

 

Sanchez-Gomez.

Gomez ended up brain damaged, but at least he didn't burn to death in a Porsche.

 

I suspect that Ray celebrated with so much coke that he didn't feel a thing.

 

That was the first one I thought of.

 

Bradley - Provodnikov
Jones - Tarver 1

 

Hagler also got paid 8 mil more than Leonard for the fight, 20 mil to 12 mil, so yeah, I guess he did come out better.

 

He did? Wow. Would not have guessed that .

 

MAB/Morales I

 

Yup. Back then being the champion actually meant more than being the A-side... what a concept!

If Leonard-Hagler happened in 2018, Leonard would make 100 mil and Hagler like 15.

 

Absolutely 100%. Leonard acted pretty "A sidey" back then, can't imagine now.

 

vs

 

Scott Westgarth against Dec Spelman, because he died.

 

Ali-Frazier 1 absolutely.

Joe won but took so much punishment and went on to lose the rematch and the thriller.

 

Definitely

 

Hagler Leonard is a terrible example, neither of them took much damage

 

Fights in which the winner was worse off than the loser...

 

yeah exactly. There's nothing to suggest that Leonard was worse off than Hagler. It was a pretty low damage fight and both of them finished pretty much unscathed

 

Hearns Leonard is a much better example, since Leonard eye was severly injured in that fight.

 

I am pretty sure Sal Sanchez was on a motorcycle.

James Dean was in the Porsche.

EDIT: Wikipedia says a Porsche,but I read an account, in a book no less, of how he was on a motorcycle, attempted to pass a car, and hit an oncoming cement truck, and was identified by his dental records.

 

Hagler clearly landed the better harder shots in that fight

 

Sounds more like Duane Allman

 

Corrales-Castillo 1?

I remember Michael Katsidis beat some guy on the Hopkins-Wright undercard and Katsidis looked fucked up.
