    Not sure mate, but its definiately valid. 60 minutes had a great time 'airing' the audio/footage. The fooatge is factual, the audio is factual, the entire thing is factual. Yes its real, as alll who have the entire fight, will also have the same sweet words from Fenech towards King.

    Bit of a different nature to the ones already mentioned this one, but i liked it-

    'If i would have fought him in his prime i wouldn't have stood a chance'

    On the topic of Mike Tyson:

    Kind of trying to remember it word for word but I'm sure I'm off a little bit.

    "Everytime I hit him he was making little noises like a woman would make. Every time I hit him in the body he made cried like a girl."
