62 years ago today, Rubin “Hurricane” Carter blasted Emile Griffith out in just one round, scoring a shocking TKO to move his record to 18–4 (12 KOs). It was the first of only two times the great Griffith was ever stopped, a reminder of Carter’s raw power and ferocity at middleweight during his brief but explosive prime. #OnThisDay #Boxing #BoxingHistory #RubinCarter #HurricaneCarter #EmileGriffith #Middleweight #Knockout #FightHistory | BTR Boxing Podcast Network
