    Cheers Al.

    Wierd though, am pretty sure i just read that Kane couldnt get up in the 13th round, spent.

    The best flyweight fight anyone had ever seen, according to the writer of the book Benny by John Burrowes.

    Also says the fight was in front of 40,000 people in Shawfield Park.

    :huh

    Am truly confused.

    Forgot about the second fight, though the Liverpool fight is talked of like its the 1st in the book.

    Cheers though Mr Butt :thumbsup
