The shortest fights in boxing history – number one

Let me present to you the shortest boxing fight of history.  While the fight was extremely peaceful, one of the fighters still gained minor injuries. We wish him well from here. On Dec 16, 2019, Ruan Visser was stepping into the ring against Tian Fiss with the south African heavyweight champion title on the line. Warming up is one of the most important things when it comes to the bout. Visser made a mistake during his warm-up.  And this mistake was that he trusted the ring. While he was trying to lean to the ropes and bounce back from them, the rope gave up the fight. Visser fell out of the ring. Before even starting the round it was over without a punch.
