    Thought it would make a change from the usual heavyweight threads !

    All joking aside it surely was a big build up in th UK and genuine grudge match.

    I remember a big fat guy marching down from the gods shouting out to a black lad nearer the ring."I'll have you son"! Some out of the ring action that night.:lol::bbb

    Brilliant publicity to make a fight between two fighters, who only the fans of the two fighters and the boxing fans were interested in, into a 'mainstream' fight.

    Call me paranoid here but watch the final knockdown.....

    Christie goes down then watch him nod to his corner.
    For that split second at 2.25 he appeared to have all his faculties back in place before failing to beat the count.

    Never noticed that before just now and having kept replaying that instant i welcome others views...could he have beat the count ?

    You have to watch his eyes very,very closely.

    Errrol Christie was tipped to be the British Sugar Ray when he first turned pro.
    Even after these defeats they kept building him up.
    He WAS pretty good, but his chin got worse and worse.

    Yeah christie was going to be a big star according to the pundits then his promoter stuck him In with Jose seys who was a light heavy from Belgium and error giving away some weight he got ko'd and that was really the start of the end of his career
