Oct 25, 2007 Chicago Blackhawks David Koci
1pd 11:42 Boston Bruins Zdeno Chara
Comments: The two come together on the side of the Blackhawks net and the rest of the players on the ice pile in after them. They drop the gloves, grab ahold of each other, and skate away from the scrum. Chara throws three rights to start things off. Koci responds with one of his own. They each throw simultaneous rights and Chara gets knocked down. He gets back up and throws seven unanswered rights that include a mix of uppercuts and straight shots. The linesmen move in and break things up. Koci is bleeding all over the ice and has blood all over his face from a cut on the bridge of his nose.

Chara wins. landed more punches & reopened Koci's nose. Koci's got a lot of guts to fight a monster like Chara with an already injured face.

way to step in there with chara even tho chara sucks at fighting....only reason he bled that much was because he had broken it prior to the fight

Another baffling vote.
I dont care if its 1 punch or 15 punches...it is impossible to vote Koci the winner which some people did.

Why vote? Just say "I am a moron and have no ability to judge"

Chara did get rocked by a punch--but he landed several--and after Koci gets hurt--he checks his face and sees blood on his hand--Chara gets another one before realizing the guy is bloodied.

Koci is a good fighter. But Chara was the better tonight-and it didnt look lucky to me.

Wow....too bad Koci had his nose broken a few days ago. He should stop fighting for a while. Way to go Chara!

I didn't see any punches landing on the forehead maybe the helmet cut Koci on the brow from the severe impact of Zdeno's punches.

Koci showed a lot of moxie fighting with a broken nose but not alot of smarts especially against a beast like Chara. Good to see Chara dropping the gloves once again, hopefully he will continue to do so.

All credit to Koci to fight whit broken nose but Zhara won that fight

This Koci should maybe go back to where he came from, first Belak made him leak saturday night, now he picks on Chara? He's nuts! Lets trade McCabe for Chara ...straight up, ill drink to that one!

Koci is hard! had it not been for his broken nose, which could have given way because of a sneeze, koci wins the fight. everyone loves tomato soup. I credit Belak for this one. I give this one to koci despite the blood. he landed a harder punch than Chara.

Message for alesek- something, or something like that. I just canī t get the way you said it was a lucky win for Chara. Iīve got an answer for your silly question did the helmet cut kociīs stupid head? the answer is, no mate, the Big Zīs fist cut Kociīs stupid head, or maybe your mother, but I havenīt noticed that happened. A lucky fight? Mate tell you something, in this kind of a fight, thereīs no luck involved, but skills and toughness. IKoci will never kick Big Zīs ass mate, never, maybe in your dreams, where you having a wank staring at Kociīs pictures.

OMFG, Owned. At first glance i thought it was a Koci punch that ropped chara to a knee. BUt it was merely the force of his punch that took him down. Awesome showing from Chara.
