Boxers fighting on through broken jaws, broken hands, and even broken shoulders and collar bones has happened, but this is grit and toughness.
Fighting on something like a broken leg or broken foot is mostly thought to be impossible.
As without your legs and feet under you, no matter how tough you are, that is pretty hard to fight on, impossible.
Not the case per the above’s horrific post fight photo this weekend from one Cesar Juarez.
He didn’t mention the extent of the injury other than posting the above image on social media, as scans will need to be done.
Suffice to say though it is a badly broken foot.
He lost the fight on stoppage but lasted remarkably until round 7 with the injury thought to have happened very early on in the contest.
To actually continue that long on a broken foot in a professional boxing match is some going.
Respect.
Some good scraps this weekend in boxing, thankfully.
