	The April 1951 issue of ''The Ring'' published a photo from the fight (page 21) showing Simmons's face grotesquely distorted as ~~Maricano~~'s glove grinds into the flesh from the side. This picture surfaced again in many ~~European papers~~ and ~~men's~~ magazines in ~~early 1974 as an example~~ of ~~boxing's terrible aspects. The reason was~~ a ~~syndicated interview with the~~ British ~~brain pathologist~~ Nicholas Corsellis (1915-1994)~~, who presented a collection~~ of 15 boxers ~~brains in formaldehyde~~. Dr. Corsellis ~~had made~~ a ~~scientific study~~ of ~~these~~ brains and ~~pointed to damages common to them which had led to mental illnesses~~ and ~~sufferings in his~~ 15 ~~deceased cases~~.		In his book ''[[Rocky Marciano: The Rock of His Times]]'', Russell Sullivan wrote: "Marciano was in trouble early before winning—and not before drawing some boos from the Providence crowd for hurling a few low blows."

			Simmons, who became a sparring partner for Marciano when the latter became world champion, said of the Brockton Blockbuster, "Whenever he hit you, wherever he hit you, he hurt you.”

			The [[:File:51Apr.jpg\|April 1951]] issue of [[Ring Magazine\|''The Ring'']] published a photo from the fight (page 21) showing Simmons's face grotesquely distorted as Marciano's glove grinds into the flesh from the side. This picture surfaced again in many newspapers and magazines in 1973 after the publication of a study by British neuropathologist Dr. John Arthur Nicholas Corsellis (1915-1994) on the brains of boxers.

			Dr. Corsellis headed a research team which examined under microscope the brains of 15 dead British fighters, 12 professionals and three amateurs. The brains were preserved by the hospital pathology departments with the consent of relatives. Most of the 15 fighters at the end of their careers suffered from slowness of speech and loss of memory. "The paramount reason for the insidious neurological and psychological deterioration of so many of the 15 men," Dr. Corsellis wrote, "was the brain damage incurred while boxing."
