    Andries vs Harding I. What a barnstormer of a slugfest that was.

    I remember seeing Tyson win the world title against Berbick on a delayed showing. And I remember the Bruno and Douglas fights. My first real memories, Tyson was pretty hard not to be aware of back then.

    Benn vs Eubank, or Eubank vs Watson 2, I wanted Eubank to win as id become a bit of fan having seen him fight on ITV before, although i dont have as good a recollection some of those fights as i did this one, probably due to the nature of how it ended, and more significantly, because Eubank was disliked, and that my moms boyfriend at the time, and my bros, were all rooting for Watson, whilst i stuck with Eubank.

    Harrison and Williams would n't be a good place for a boxing fan to start ! I just feel sorry for anyone who started off with Carlos De Leon - Johnny Nelson !!!

    I was very young, my Dad took us to the Olympic Auditorium in LA. There was a colored fighter.(I forgot his name) But he was saying he could defeat any Mexican. He was matched with Armando Muniz. Well Muniz knocked him out in the first round. It was all very exciting!
