Any boxers who wear glasses?

[CroZ]

Or are just short sighted? I've always assumed there must be quite a few but I can't think of any. I've heard de la hoya and Hatton wear glasses in the off time but can't find any proof of it. Wasn't there also something about Frazier getting his contacts knocked out when he fought Foreman?

I can think of a shit load of MMA fighters who wear glasses outside and contacts in fights but very few boxers. There must be some.

I've seen Shane Mosley and Edwin Valero in glasses outside the ring.. a lot of boxers have eye probs.. one of my friends and sparring partners lost an am fight once because his contract came out midfight.. and he wasn't supposed to have it in in the first place... he had had like 80 fights though and that was the first time it ever came out.

^^ In the sanctioned amatuers they give you 5 minutes to look for it if it comes out if you request it, but nobody does

I'm surprised it took that many fights to lose a contact. I don't train or anything, but I got into a scuffle once and my right contact sort of slid under my eye. It was really disorienting, so I resorted to wild swinging. Fortunately, that's what the other guy was doing to. :icon_chee

Well he was pretty hard to hit.. very smart guy.. he was an mp in the army and learned to box there.
