I know it was early 90s but to me this was a classic result. Does anyone have any memories of this?



1992-09-15 Sonny Barch V Tex Cobb War Memorial Auditorium, Fort Lauderdale NC 1/6
time: 1:10 | referee: William Connors
Both fighters tested positive on cocaine. Originally a TKO win for Cobb.

indeed

yeah, I remember watching that on TV.
Barch looked like a big 'bully type who thought he had the fight 'in the bag"
it wasn't too long after that the article appeared in Sports Illustrated
and Cobb was later black-balled.
You can see high-lights of that fight at approx. 25:58 of this clip.

fantastic video
