Julio Cesar Chavez broke many ribs, remember Taylor?

I thought I heard Castillo broke one of PBF's ribs but Im not sure if thats true.

I can't recall but there are tons of fighters who kept fighting with broken ribs.

Ricky Quiles a lightweight with 8Ko's in 39 wins did serious damage to Kostya Tszyu's ribs in sparring.
Not sure whether it was broken or not but they nearly pulled the plug on the Mitchell rematch for the second time but he knew that he wouldnt keep his belt if he didnt fight.

Shows you dont have to be huge puncher to do damage.
