Kocur - Neely (1985)

[vincenzosupernova]

It would be a great fight if they were both in there prime.

[phille22]

broke his hand?

[Devlins10]

fighting kocur was in and of itself took alot of balls. one solid shot from one of his hammer rights is crippling

[HiredGoonage]

Neely's lucky he didn't catch one of those square or it would have been hospital time.

[phille22]

I can actually hear the helmet break

[stinkfinger630]

How the hell could Kocur throw bombs like that, hit Neely's helmet and not break the shit out of his nuckles!!??

[PGFIGHTS]

thats why kocur stopped fighting in the later years his knuckles were mashed potatoes

[Lancerboy2000]

Kocur wudve killed Cam..even though Cam was tuff

!

[jscottrockford]

This fight is classic because on other versions you can actually hear Kocur's hand hitting Neely's helmet 3 or 4 times. He probably stopped punching because he got tired of hitting it and wrecking his hand

[bareknuckles2u]

Neely was a terrific player, and a pretty good scrapper, but he was lucky he didn't catch one of Kocur's bombs in that one.,

[2382224]

Neely hung on for life as soon as he

realized he had no shot.

[RustBeltKitchener]

huntercalgary and bosoxnation1972 are the same person

[huntercalgary]

rustbeltkitchener and micheal jackson are the same person.....lol

[sparwood8]

@RustBeltKitchener

Nope, neither one is a person. Look up 'Internet troll'

[ottvalley]

Neely wouldn't beat Kocur at any time in his career

[sparwood8]

@ottvalley

IN a best of 5, Neely'd take one

[znogypogy]

@sparwood8 neely would take 1 of 20 with kocur. cam with a broken stick was a better player than joe mind you...

[sparwood8]

@ottvalley and he'd have to be lucky

[benolv]

Kocur has punch like boxer... really powerful

[flyers22]

Shit, Kocur threw lethal bombs. He was scary

[wlfman11]

Those are the ugliest uniforms ever.

[aljanadcob]

Beautiful.

Cam didn't know that Joey could fight.

Must've thought he was fighting Chiasson or Gallant, lol.

[cjlang1213]

Cam was till a growing boy at the time, maybe 19. Kocur was definitely tough, but a couple years later it would've been a better matchup

[aljanadcob]

Yeah, a couple of years later Joey would've still beat the shit out of him, haha!!

[huntercalgary]

lol.....sad...................­...

[aljanadcob]

it lives.........

[huntercalgary]

it lives on about 20 other vids..clowning you....lol.....good luck finding them all geek....youre the only one who cares....lol

btw, twerp....owned...lol..........­.

[JimmySmers]

Not really, Neely was never a Kocur level fighter.

[driverdad71]

If Kocur would have really connected on any of those bombs he'd have killed Neely. Kocur was truly bad ass

[WarmothGuitarist]

If you really watch Kocur in this video...you'll see his signature move.

As Kocur would draw his arm back, he'd push his opponent away. As Kocur would swing, he would pull his opponent back in. He basically used his opponent for leverage in order to hit them. He ruled the NHL heavyweights for over a decade.

[HiredGoonage]

Kocur didn't rule, but was the most feared puncher.

[dcz28]

Saw Neely on "Off The Record" (TSN) once and he said Kocur had the hardest punches of anyone he's ever fought. He also said Kocur once cracked his helmet with a punch but i don't know if this is the fight in which he did.

[deebodeez2]

it was this fight, it was that punch that broke his hand, u can hear it,

[geoabe302]

Those two are both heavyweights, and Neely was a great scorer also. If Kocur connects with one of those haymakers Neely is on his can.

[fisherflyers]

these guys are tough!

[blr4ever07]

It shows that Cam Neely is not afraid of Kocur,and Joe was known for his KO punches. Neely went after him and did allright. Lucic wouldn't fight Kocur because he would be scared. Lucic the next Neely. YEAH RIGHT!!!

[canadianhockey1924]

neely didnt do alright here. he didnt do a t hing really. i love bam bam cam but sea bass didnt do a thing here but have a couple of punches knock his brain lose by one of the greats, the second bruiser brother joey kocur.

[detroitkillers313]

wow neely got tossed around like a rag doll.

he was more concerned about not getting his ass knocked out then fighting.

the second neely got a chance he just hugged kocur and stopped the fight

[huntercalgary]

just like you hug your priest...lol....sad

[flyers22]

LOL! Look at those bombs Kocur was throwing! Duck Cam!

[BCU84]

haha neely loses to kocur who is one of the all time great fighters...and hes a pussy? wow kid watch some more videos or at least know what you talking about.

[habs24cups2008]

Neely was swinging like a pussy. Typical. he got his ass kicked.

[Christoned3]

You can clearly tell that Neely's helmet was over his eyes at the end, lets see another guy who can score 50 goals who will stand up to one of the toughest guys in the league

[HolyHellPreacher]

Christoned3: Brendan Shanahan comes to mind.

[HiredGoonage]

Although it was pure luck that he escaped getting knocked out in this fight. Just one of those punches would have busted his face.

[damnyanq]

ya,its a good thing he didnt go to montreal,he wouldnt have even fought.other than hockey and stinky french wannabes,white flag waving cowards,what else has montreal got?pepe-le pew

[aljanadcob]

well Cam lived through it.

[petershala]

wow some very heavy rights

[gqnelly]

Kocur's right hand...was there anyone with a bigger jackhammer? I think he did split his helmet in this fight...damn!

[pagedoll]

Holy shit! Look at Neely's helmet! It's split down the fucking back!

[XxskaterJCboiixX]

true

[HughGeeRekshin]

You can hear Kocur land punches to Neely's helmet at :08, :10, and :13. That only seems to make Kocur throw HARDER. He's enraged at Neely's early left that lands you can hear it at :04, it almost knocks Kocur's helmet off LISTEN

[susdlnskafw]

yeah, Neely's a wimp taking on one of the most feared fighters in league history (insert eye-roll here). Do you think that pussy gretzky would ever stand up like that?

(Bobby Orr, the real great one, might though)

[XxskaterJCboiixX]

bobby orr is not the real gr8 1 gretzky is a way better player

[RiderwithaLeftHook]

Neely is a punk, he started throwin first to get Joey by surprise, when Joey gets his right hand loose Neely punks out and grabs him...he's a wuss.

[kallistobone]

holy shit im giving massive props to neely cmon guys that was impressive kocur can break through stone can you blame neely for trying to get outta the way and think about it in a fight do you just smile and let someone pound you face nope ill call it a nothing fight because i doubt a good hit got landed....

[ianc77]

I think this is the fight where Kocur broke Neely's helmet with his punches; it is so quiet you can hear his punches land.

[reflectiveintrospect]

If Kocur didn't win this fight it is because Neely did his impression of a turtle standing up. Look closely. Neely couldn't get anything going because he was trying with everything he had to duck into Kocur's chest so he could slow down that runaway freight-train of a right hand! Neely was very fortunate here.

[wyldebuzz]

Neely is lucky the haymakers didn't land

[ronibugs]

How the hell did Kocur win this fight? He never landed a punch. Every time he threw it would go over Neely's head. You people must be talking about another fight. He never won this fight

[tacular3]

WOW! duckin the haymakers!.... Fuck the old coleseum.. you can hear whispers nobody showed up cause the canucks sucked!

[Waycooljr2270]

Neely was gonna get his ass kicked.

[lilpineapplehead]

fuck for some guy who is this great power forward the guy can'nt fight.

[haggggs]

you're clueless

[thefernace]

Neely fought mostly hacks. Any legit tough guy he would fight, he most likely would loose. He was tough and mean though. Not too skilled in the fighting department though.

[boston4877]

Lucky to be alive? lol You are an idiot, since no hockey player in NHL history has ever died in a fight. Sure, Kocur gets the decision here, but it is far from an ass whooping. It's a good scrap. Kocur trained with the Kronk boxing team and didn't have 1 tenth the talent as a player than Nelly, but he was a better fighter.

[jcnyut000000000000]

What'r you defending every fuk'n dripping pussy that plays for boston?

[boston4877]

lmao defending? No, I am saying that Neely definately lost this fight, but you cannot name a 3 time 50 goal scorer in NHL history that Neely wouldn't destroy in a fight. Oh, and if Neely got destroyed by every legitimate heavyweight thefernace, then I guess Basil McCrae, Ken Baumgartner, Rick Tocchet, Chris Nilan, Lindy Ruff, and Lyndon Byers were all pussies. (all lost to Neely, Byers lost in Neely's first practice as a Bruin. KO)

[bruthav]

You're a liar. Tocchet beat Neely. He cut him over his right eye. No one can objectively look at that fight and say Tocchet lost.  Enough with the Boston homerism.

[boston4877]

First of all..Tocchet opened a cut from where a puck hit Neely in the first period. (not making excuses, he still nailed him with a good shot) The fight you are referring to was pretty even, all things considered. That was not their only fight. neely one punched Tocchet in another fight and it got broken up too quickly before it could get going again. Tocchet was a Bruin when the Bruins had a tribute to Cam Neely and Tocchet talks about both fights.

[boston4877]

By the way, even if you listen to the Philly announcers calling the fight, the announcer is about to talk about Neelys eye already being cut. Yes, Tocchet showed class when they each had each other tied up, and they each tapped each other. Hell, Shane Corson had a similar fight with Neely where Neely had a 12 stitch gash from a first period puck, and Corson opened it and Cam was absolutely covered in blood. Cam won the fight, but if you looked at them when it was over, you give it to Shane.

[dadblair]

i watched these guys fight in juniors and joey beat him all the time and its no knock on cam he is tough.

[313ESCO]

Typical Kocur!! I Remember when Probert took mercy on Roenick....

[zsmoke]

haggs ur stroking on neely nthats sick ur comments are wrong and ur mom is not proud

[haggggs]

you must be blind or just delusional! Search "Kocur Richter" for a sense of how tough Kocur really was. Kyte couldn't fight!

[MJkate]

I think Haqqqs is f***ing with you guys. Any fan of neely would know who joey kocur is. Or he is retarded.

[haggggs]

I prefer disabled.

[MJkate]

word

[haggggs]

I'd say if the thrid Red Wing haden't come in, Kocur would have been on the ice with blood coming out of his ears.

[stevecanuck16]

What third Red Wing? Do you even know who Joey Kocur is? Type Kocur into the search box up top, and then tell me who should've been on the ice bloodied.

[haggggs]

open your eyes and look at the video, don't post stupid comments.

[stevecanuck16]

Are you talking about the Red Wing and the Canuck that bump into the two at the start of the fight? That had very little impact on the outcome of the fight. Kocur is one of the greatest fighters of all time. Cam Neely is not. This fight ended the way it should've. And I'm a Canucks fan, fyi.

[haggggs]

yeah, and still bitter about losing the great one. Neely is one of the best fighters, however not a major league heavyweight, one of the most feared left-handed scrappers of alltime. And I like how YOU know how much of an impact the guy interfering had on the fight, Neely was just getting his shots when the third man jumped in between them. we'll never know, but I'd say it had a huge impact on the fight.

[stevecanuck16]

By getting his shots in, you mean the shots he got in before Kocur even dropped his gloves? Classy. Neely was not that feared. Kocur was arguably the most feared fighter of all time, at least he's up there with Twist and Probert. Search up "Kocur vs Kyte" or any of his other numerous KOs for proof.

[aljanadcob]

this guy's nuts.neely was just getting started?he was a good 50 goal scorer but he wasn't this stupid again.check his fight card.

[BoSoxnation1972]

He actually fought Joey several times in the juniors growing up, and they were all pretty decent fights. Joey never knocked down Cam, which is more than most people can say! (there are 3 fights as juniors that I've read about and seen 1 of them on tape. Kocur won 2 and the other was a draw)

[zsmoke]

SHUT up haggs your statements truly show ur knowledge ABout hockey and the tough guys. Don't disrespect us competent hockey and tough guy fans like this. i'm not sure if ya say this cause ur bored or confused dillusional or are just a prick and are like claude lemieux and like 2 shoot off at the mouth hidind behind a computer(or a face a mask). Either way go play tittilywinks and shut the f---up.

[haggggs]

okay toughguy, I think you're the one shooting off at the mouth and hiding behind your computer. Don't waste my time you dim-witted dipshit. I've never hid behind any computer or "face a mask." I also don't waste my time with half-wits.

[aryan0219]

hagggs your wrong man. Kocur was a legendary fighter. cam neely was an all around hockey player( scoring, checking) and would drop them if necassary. There is no comparison between them when it comes to fighting. Neely was lucky to be alive the way Joey was throwing them. Ask Brad Dalgarno how hard joey hits

[haggggs]

Kocur was a tough guy, Neely spent more of his time scoring but he could and would throw down with anybody and win 90% of the time.

[aryan0219]

neely's shining moment came when he dragged claude lemeiux around the ice like a little bitch and slammed his head repeatedly into the boards. Later Cam called him "a gutless puke". I am a ranger fan but I instantly loved cam neely after that

[haggggs]

yeah, 50 goals in 43 games was a forgettable event in his career. he would call a Spade a Spade, or in this case a Lemieux a Puke.

[HolyHellPreacher]

It definitely looked like Joey was throwin' pretty hard on that video. You could hear every shot that he landed! I'm sure Neely just wanted to get out of the place alive! Joe Kocur, Probably the most dangerous punch in hockey history. The "Jack-Hammer Right" BOOOM!! He knock many punks out (litteraly!) with that punch. Yzerman, Probert, and Kocur in Detroit in the 80's. They call that the Dead Wings!

[zsmoke]

whatever retard!!! just like every other poster has said joey whipped his ass. Your the only one that doesn't think so do you sleep with him?  You post garbage all over you tube we laugh at you in detroit and across the country and across the continent. But people like you really make us all laugh so keep it up!!!

[haggggs]

you laugh at me in Detroit???? lol, that's Laughable in itself!!

[alexjames27]

yeah, that or if the third wing hadn't come in we'd be referring to him as "the late Cam Neely"....

[JimmySmers87]

Neely was lucky he escaped from this with his face in tact.

[werbinator]

Neely was never really.... "Neely" untill Boston.
