    I've got a son and I'm not pushing him to get into boxing but it'd be cool if he liked watching the fights. So I'm looking forward to telling him about some of the great fights I've seen. Eubank v Benn 1 springs to mind.

    What about you guys?

    IMO.... the Grand kids will be talking about fights from the 70's, and back from there, and a reasonable selection form the 80's. Most from the 90's 00's have been fly' by' night' champs.

    We dont see too many fight worth remembering anymore....especially for nostalgic reasons.

    the game is a mess, and I feel sad for any teenager who's interest is genuine.

    i was always a casual fan of boxing but after castillo-corralas 1 boxing became my #1 sport.
