I think Tyson vs Spinks was the first fight I remember watching with my father...I was about 6 at the time
Hagler vs Hearns. I still remember the posters. They looked like superheroes. They made them all muscular. Neither looked like that in real life so I was kinda bummed out. I was expecting these two super humans fight.
Hagler v Leonard was the first fight I can actually remember watching and I was 11. I remember thinking Hagler won also lol! That fight I watched because my uncles had a fight party to celebrate on of them buying a new house. It made me a fan of the sport. The first fight I watched no my own was Starling vs Breland on USA network Tuesday night fight or something. It was their rematch and although I vaguely remember I know it was a good fight and ended in a draw but I thought Starling had won. da fuq did I know at that age lol
Watt v O grady then rain lashing down the blood was like a horror film .Also Hagler minter with my nan making some interesting comments about race . Bless her
Cool fight! For me it was Foreman-Frazier on closed-circuit tv. All I remember is Cosell screaming and my dad's eyes and mouth open wide. Noone in the room could believe it.
First high profile match that I remember specifically was Lennox Lewis vs McCall rematch in 97 when I was about 3 or 4. I remember it for how bizarre it was and remember McCall crying during the fight and more specifically my dad cursing him out in Spanish through the tv screen.
