To be fair, growing up and watching Eubank on ITV and then looking at the love Bruno got. Chris looked unbeatable for a bit, but Frank always...
Lol. Reading is fundamental ... You're absolutely right. On British Isles, for a short time, Naseem Hamed, Chris Eubank, Ricky Hatton, Anthony...
Add in Mike Tyson and Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Congrats - one of my fave posters when it comes to the feel for an Ali fight as it's clear that it was a big part of your growing up, watching...
I don't recall him breaking his hand but if so, full ratings. A bit like Floyd with the injured shoulder Vs JLC. Pete deffo showed in the rematch...
