Horrible luck for Zepeda. Nasty scene in that corner.
This reminds me of Pascal-Diaconu II. Pascal’s shoulder got “dislocated” (excuse my french!) something like three times during the fight, and his cutman (Russ Anber) had to pop it back in each time… ouch!
Yeah I was gonna say I’ve seen boxers fight on with dislocated shoulders before. Zepeda’s dislocation looked particularly bad, though. What a horrible way to lose a world title fight & your 0.
Ack! I’m sweating just thinking about that.
