Tony Twist vs Francois Leroux 3/26/96 (Lots of Replays)

[MrFireworkssafety]

If my hockey memory is correct, Twist was on a bum ankle at the time and was a game time decision, but even watching this now it looks like either the helmet or taped hand cut him open. If the refs don't step in, then an ambulance would have been needed.

@MrFireworkssafety Not to mention, I think huard split him open on his pervious fight. He may have opened up that cut....

i have never seen twister get rocked like that so props

Obviously there's a lot of Tony Twist fans here, and I liked him as well. However, give Francois Leroux some credit, he wasn't exactly the bitch of the NHL. Not many people could give Tony Twist a good fight, but Francois Leroux was one of them that could.

i'm putting on the foil coach..thats why i taped my hand up

[teeoh38]

what slewfoot? do you even know what a slewfoot is?

[MrJuha82]

@teeoh38 he kicked Twists leg which caused falling to the ice, clear thing in this fight.

Leroux was cocky, doesnt deserve a victory in my book.

DRAW.

[calvinl33t]

half of leroux's punches were on twist after he (twist) was tackled and cevered by the ref... and twist got him good in part 1. lol 3:16, twist is grabbing, trying to punch, leroux is diving away. XD

[bern1417]

@calvinl33t wrong he only hit him 3x's after the ref tackled him.

[BradyMVP66]

i like the ref hanging on to his leg. lol

[MrJuha82]

NO WINNER because Leroux slewfooted Twist!!!

no points.

Twist won the first half of a fight, landing couple/few big punches.

[brunobrandy]

Leroux kicked his ass.

[cptjrkov]

& he supposedly had something on his knuckles

[BradyMVP66]

@MrJuha82 i didnt see the slewfoot. Im a pens fan but was rooting for twist. he was awesome and Leroux was a bum

[Sharksfan27]

Not only does Leroux tape his hand, he throws multiple cheap shots when the referees are there.

[alanbrenthatten]

I stand corrected Leroux knocked the Twister down when Twist was with the Blues.

[hamischlammengamen]

I think that was an old cut, from the time Twist got TKO'd by Bill Huard just before this because at the end of the Huard clip, the linesman are shoveling blood off the ice.

[nyerinmo]

What?? Leroux got a MATCH penalty, for taping his fingers! ILLEGAL.  Tape tears the flesh, that's why he cut him. I guess if Laroux had a bat, that would be ok too....LOL!

[Sharksfan27]

woulda needed one to go toe to toe with a real man..

[WangoWasabiPictures]

knocked the ref on his ass lol

[nyerinmo]

Leroux had his fingers taped, which is why Twist was cut. Leroux was a total coward the second AND third time they went at it, getting beat like a dog!

[Camel22221]

Taping hands was legal prior to the 1975-76 season when they outlawed that as well as hair pulling.
