I will always love old time hockey. Michigan born and raised. It’s so exciting watching the bruise brothers duke it out. That first punch Probert threw with his glove on...I can only imagine how that felt. And then Kocur smacking him twice after that...god damn. The 2 best NHL enforcers of all time.

Love that enforcer mentality by both men. A Ranger tripped Keith Primeu before the faceoff, Probert is there to fight the guy in a blink. When two other Rangers try to fight off Probert, Probert starts to fight them both at the same time. Then Kocur pushes aside both his teammates so that he can have a proper fight with Probert.

Probert even said in an interview that at first he had no idea who he grabbed a hold of at first. Once Kocur started smacking him hard, he started getting pissed & then realized who it was.

Tom Quinton Don't forget Adam Graves, a stud player who loved to scrap and damn good at it. Been a Ranger fan since '65 and it's true if they were tougher in 1970- 1974 they very well could have won a Cup or maybe two. When Smith added Joey to this group they might not have needed him, but I'm a firm believer in the saying, " you can never have too much speed or too much toughness." Fred Shero used to say about Dave Schultz, " Schultzy gave us courage on the road". Anyone can play tough at home but going into another teams Barn in the NHL is whole different ballgame. Joey (amoung others) did that for the Rangers.

Probert and Kocur were like brothers to each other. They were both tough enforcers who played the game clean and stood up for their team and put their organization first and foremost. They fought each other because it was in their blood to instinctively protect and avenge their opponents' wrongdoings against their own teammates, and they just happened to have opposing jerseys on. Their fight was nothing personal between them. I'll be willing to bet any amount of money that they both sought each other out after this game was over, shook hands and hugged each other and then went out for a beer together, knowing full well and understanding that this situation could and would arise again when their teams played each other the next time.

Probert had the long drawn out fights fairly often and he was a beast, but Kocur came in with bad intentions from the very start and he tried to hurt guys, As a Michigander I will always be a fan of these two and respect them both equally.

This whole thing with how Probert couldn't win a fight unless his jersey was shed is beyond asinine. It seems most of you have not seen the famous Probert vs. Mcsorley fight from '94. A very hungover Probert damn near pummels up a healthy, sober and an equal heavyweight in Mcsorely in a 2 min some scrap. Then take a close look who's sweater is shed. I'll tell one thing...it's not Bob's.

If the fight had been allowed to go on, either Probert would have used his reach to keep Kocur away, or Kocur would have got in close and did some damage. We will never know because of Bettman and the refs. Probably just as well.

A little to late kocur had two major punches landed from the beginning of the fight. There’s a reason why he has KO in his name. Probert had plenty of time to do something but didn’t succeed with that upper cut.

Their primes occured at different times!!!!!!!!! In the mid-late eighties, Probie was beating fighters who beat Kocur, such as Craig Coxe, Bob McGill and Marty McSorley!!!!!!!!! Whereas towards the mid nineties, I'd say Kocur was probably better, as Probie was being pressured to come off his coke by the league and the Blackhawks, whilst Kocur was still throwing his recklessly hard punches with abandon, and terrorising the league!!!!!!! I'd say that by the late nineties, Probie was better again, as Kocur was realising his fists weren't indestructible, and Probie was always a better distance fighter than him!!!!!!!!! I don't remember ever seeing Kocur win a long fight against anyone!!!!!!!

​​​​​@@STEJTHEGREATEST Fighters had stretches in their careers where they fought better due to experience, physical strength and of course tactics and supplements we call them. Newer competition and Tie down rules could change any fighters performance to decline. As you've mentioned that Probert's cocaine usage came under control. He was probably less willing to get beat on. The pain meter escalated without cocaine in the system. The competition was getting bigger in size and more juiced up on roids! The old saying goes, every dog had its day. I believe that Probert's best years were from Jan 9,1991 too April 1994. He was also very good in the latter. 1987 1988 season. Kocur moved up too number 2 during the 1989-1990 season. Probert had issues with drugs and prison related problems and slipped to number 3. You are more than likely accurate with what you've put forward regarding who was better between them at the time frames you've indicated. Funny how Coxe dropped Kocur quickly. Coxe could fight with Probert all night long. Certain fighters had the other guys figured out I guess? I've watched this fight and believe it was a slight edge win for Kocur here.

Probert was The GOAT but you can tell he respected Kocur's power by keeping him close and not eating a few punches like he would with other fighters. If Kocur was 6'4" and 250 there would have been a lot of hospitalized fighters.

Looks like Probert doesn't really want to fight Kocur. Obviously their probably friends doing a job for their team. Probert is trying to hug Kocur so that neither of them hurt each other too bad. Not usually how Probert fights when he intends to hurt someone. Both tough guys though.

Probie let up on Kocur first then Kocur threw two big shots. They then grappled for a bit with Probie getting madder and madder and Kocur thinking maybe they should end it. If you're going to say Kocur let up on Probert then you have to acknowledge Probert's half heartedness at the start.
