In September 1994, promoter Bob Arum officially announced the highly anticipated title fight between undefeated fighters James Toney and Roy Jones Jr.[1] Toney came into the fight as the IBF super middleweight champion, having won the title on February 13, 1993, from Iran Barkley and having since successfully defended the title three times. Jones, the reigning IBF middleweight champion since defeating Bernard Hopkins on May 22, 1993, had defended the middleweight belt only once before vacating the title in order to move up to the super middleweight division and challenge Toney. The men were considered to be two of the top fighters in the sport.[2] Toney was ranked number two in the pound-for-pound rankings, while Jones was number three. (Photo by Alex Rinaldi)

This is what two boxers who just had a fight that lasted 110 rounds look like! Yes 110 rounds took seven hours and nineteen minutes (7 hrs. 19 min.) to complete. It took place on April 6, 1893, between Andy Browen and Jack Burke. The fight ended in No-Contest because at the call to begin round 111, the two exhausted boxers were unable to get up from the stool to resume the fight.

August 10, 1937 – Pompton Lakes, New Jersey. Without danger of winding up with a manslaughter charge against him, Heavyweight Champion of the World Joe Louis lets go at the heavy bag which absorbs punishment like a blotter does ink. Joe is preparing for his bout in Yankee Stadium against the Challenger and British Champion Tommy Farr in the first defense of the title he won from James J. Braddock on June 22, 1937. In the Farr fight Louis was a 5-1 betting favorite. The total attendance was 36,903. Gross receipts were $265,753.11, and the net was $222,463.80. Movie and radio rights were $60,000. Louis made $112,987.52, and Farr received $60,000. There were no knockdowns in the fight. The Associated Press reported: “On the official score cards, referee Donovan gave Louis a 13 to 2 margin in rounds won. Of the two judges, Kid McPartland gave Louis 10 and Farr 5, while Charley Lynch scored eight for Louis, four for Farr and three even.” The AP had Louis winning 8-5-2.

June 12, 1940. Carmel, New York. Former heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey (L) and Chilean Challenger Arturo Godoy (R) who is set to meet heavyweight Champion Joe Louis in a return match at Yankee Stadium on June 20, 1940, spar at the Training Camp in Carmel, New York. In the first bout at Madison Square Garden, Louis won by split decision. Joe declared afterwards: “This was the worst fight I ever had.” Godoy, as expected, disagreed with the decison and said, “Of course, I think I win. Certainly, I should get no worse than draw.” In the return match Louis was a 5-1 betting favorite. Godoy’s face was so badly battered that the Associated Press reported that his face looked like “barbecued beef.” Godoy was floored late in the seventh round. He got up right before the bell rang to end the round. Louis dropped Godoy twice in the eighth round. After the second knockdown, the referee stopped the fight without a count. Godoy tried to go after Louis when he got up, but he was restrained. Later, when he had calmed down, Godoy shook Louis’ hand and congratulated him.”That’s the worst beating I ever gave a man,” Louis said after the fight. meanwhile, Dempsey, donning gloves publicly for the first time in seven years sparred two one-minute rounds with Godoy. Jack is training for his fight with Cowboy Luttrell in Atlantic, Georgia in July.  The fight was booked for the night of July 1 at Atlanta’s Poncede Leon Park.  When Dempsey returned to Atlanta a few days before the match, thousands greeted him at Terminal Station. There followed a boisterous, police-escorted parade through town. On fight night a crowd of 12,000 showed up at the stadium. People cheered as the 205-pound Dempsey who made his way to the ring. But the man who had drawn the first million-dollar gate, in 1921, and had packed Sesquicentennial Stadium in Philadelphia with 120,757 fans for his first bout with Gene Tunney, in 1926, now found that his corner stool was an empty beer crate. The bout was as quick as it was brutal. Dempsey, his foot and hand speed gone, nonetheless pounded the clumsy 226-pound Luttrell to the canvas four times, battering his face into a bloody mask. Early in the second round,  Dempsey caught Luttrell flush on the jaw with a left hook, knocking him head over heels through the ropes and into the first row, where he struck his head on a camera case and lost consciousness. The crowd roared. Dempsey, gasping for breath, was exhilarated; he had earned only $4,000, but he had the old feeling. As for Luttrell, he woke up in the hospital an hour later, $800 richer.

Top-rated heavyweight contender Ingemar Johansson destroys Floyd Patterson to capture the heavyweight title on June 26, 1959 at New York’s Yankee Stadium.

The fight was broadcast live on ABC radio and available in 170 locations in 135 cities on closed-circuit television through movie theaters and drive-in theaters. Prices for the fight at Yankee Stadium ranged from ringside at $100 to the upper bleachers at $5. Johansson was guaranteed $100,000, while the heavyweight champion Patterson was guaranteed $300,000.
