Boxing is not a sport for the faint-hearted. Fighters put themselves on the line when they step into the ring. Every fighter knows the damage that can be inflicted upon them, but their bravery to still step into the ring makes the sport what it is. Boxing can prove to be life-threatening for a fighter. The damage incurred by a boxer can lead to long-term damage and alter the rest of his life. But all these aspects of boxing are what add to the thrill of it.

In a recent video surfacing on the internet, fans were shocked to see what prevailed during a boxing match in which one of the fighters experienced a gruesome defeat.

A brutal knockout!

A video posted on Twitter by Cerebral Vigilante, two fighters engage punches before one shoots a robust right hook on the opponent’s neck during a boxing match. Next, what prevails has left the boxing community worried.

After the hook, the opponent falls right on the canvas, unable to breathe. The hook twisted the opponent’s tongue, and he began to choke on it. The referee rushed towards the fighter to see what was wrong. But, soon, two gentlemen made their way to the ring and helped the referee to untwist the fighter’s tongue.
