    Below is a five minute highlight clip of Tua vs Izon sometime in the 90s. These guys stood toe to toe and just traded for 12 rounds. You could have eliminated the use of a ring and just had these two fight in a phone booth for as little real estate as they used. Great fight.

    Great post.

    I miss this kind of heavyweight boxing. Fast hard hitting guys. Relatively rare these days since the heavies are so monstrous.

    I agree. Thank god the Cruiserweight division has been so good the last few years. Some of these heavyweights today are so stiff and robotic.
