What injuries did Muhammed Ali sustain while fighting?

Answer by  dcrusher59 (590)

Probably his most significant injury was when he fought Joe Frazier and had his jaw broken. It should be noted that he did finish the fight and won it on a split decision. Looking at him later in life i would say that he has sustained some kind of blunt force trauma to his brain.

Apart from the usual injuries that boxers get, cuts to the eyelids, he suffered head trauma that progressed to parkinson's disease that has come to affect him later in life. Mostly he got swollen faces due to the blunt force trauma to the head, swollen eyes resulting to the same, same blunt force trauma, caused by boxing.
