    Amonsot vs. Katsidis (I was in the arena and it was sad to see people checking texts and e-mails, especially as the main event wasn't too exciting).

    Eubank vs. Thompson 1.

    or Walker Smith!
    As it happens I always think of Neary as Jimmy as I knew him in the early days. My old fella trained him for his first few fight along with George Schofield. I remember asking my dad what he thought of Jimmy back then and he said "He's a hard man"

    Great shout. Two good friends slugging it out, underrated classic as is Simons clash with Tyrone Trice.

    Not a "great" fight, but Lewis-Biggs was exciting in '91, on the undercard of Holy-Cooper.
