    :happy

    .......not the best quality pic I know, but this shot sums up the ferocity of this legendary encounter between 2 of the greatest exponents of the 'Noble Art.'
    An irrepressible MMH swarms the increasingly desperate Hearns during their sensational slugfest............
    Still my favourite fight of the eighties, and one of the best of all time, for sheer, non stop, explosive action from start to finish....

    It was posted on ESB a while back (possibly in the Classic Forum).

    Is it any surprise Tony Zale suffered from alzheimer's in his later years, having taken punishment like this throughout his career?
    A powerful image, indeed.........
