    I saw it live as well, Herol Graham was running away with the fight, miles in front. But as always with Julian Jackson, he just needs to hit you once and it's over. That guy had venom in his hands.

    here's the link.

    Michael Nunn was considered a top3 P4P figher at the time he met Toney, he was a fantastic undefeated boxer with an iron chin - while Toney was only a green prospect and considered an easy title-defense for Nunn. The fight was in Nunns hometown of Davenport.

    Nunn outboxed Toney for 9 rounds. He didn't school Toney, but he clearly won every single round. Toney slowed Nunn down with effective bodypunching however. Round 10 was a big round for Toney, and Nunn was dead tired. In round 11 Toney went for the KO and he got it. Look how young and skinny Toney looked at that time, you nearly can't believe this is the same fighter who now competes at HW nearly 20 years later.

    Marciano vs Walcott. Rocky was down in the 13th by quite a few rds.

    Blam!!! The hardest short right ever landed turned that fight around! This was back when boxing was a rough sport. watch the ref basically roll walcott around..he might have paralyzed walcott! I was yelling Lollapalooza rock Lollapalooza!

    Not really.

    Froch was ahead on one card and had won the previous 5 rounds+ and made a case for more.
