    'Hitman' Harding was surely one of our greatest ever warriors! Haven't seen the Tiozzo bout - must chase a copy of it.

    Not sure I envy you being Jeff's sparring partner - how's the right hand side of your head these days?

    My three favourites were -

    Kostya v Judah - It was unbelievable when Kostya hammered Judah and sent him into a chicken dance ! Bloody Beautiful !!!


    Darchinyan v Mijares - Vic was a massive underdog and fought in front of thousands of mexican fans in LA. When he landed the wicked uppercut in round one I thought the Raging Bull was back to his best.

    Mundine V Green - It was more so the hype and the spectacle of seeing 30,000 people watching boxing. I hope it happens when Green V Jones eventuates.

    Just loved that Chicken dance - and it couldn't have happened to a more obnoxious ***** either - a great moment in Australian sport!

    What a pity Mundine vs Green didn't live up to its potential as a contest - had all the buildup to be one of our very greatest home-soil bouts too.

    Peden v Campbell II. I was lucky enough to spend the day of the fight with Robbie, which was fantastic. The celebration beers afterwards were even better!

    i think the briggs vs adamek fights will definately stick in my mind for a long time, darchinyan vs mijares for how much vic hammered a pfp fighter and who hasnt won since, is that the defination of shot?
    and ndou vs rabah that was a war!

    Involving an Aussie fighter?

    Les Darcy vs George Chip. Even Bat Masterson had given Chip a 'heroes farewell' from the USA enroute to Oz, claiming he was the hardest punching and best M/W to venture to Oz. After wearing some of Chips famous left hooks, DARCY FLATTENED HIM!!!

    Michael vs Carter.... makes Fenech vs Villasana look like a sparring session. Carter landed more bombs than the Luftwafa.

    Vic Patrick vs Eddie Marcus... one straight left, nye nye Eddie.

    Ellis vs Sequenan I. Lester takes a terrible belting early... Sequenan cops a reciept later.

    Hardies vs Andries I... Obvious reasons.

    Mat Powell-Mohammed Elomar I always makes me laugh.

    The rematch had me crossing my legs in sympathy.
