    Mayweather vs Pac. Had a charity 10k with work to run. Glad I missed it tbh.

    I fell for all the hype at the time, thought tyson was unstoppable. When I found out the result the next day I was shocked. Can't believe i missed it live

    Me too, I thought nobody had a chance against tyson, and I always root for the underdog, and with buster such a massive one it made the fight even better, it was wonderful to watch, and such a shame they tried to rob Douglas with all that long count BS.

    Mayweather/Pacquiao. Was last game of the footy season the following day and we were away and kicking off at around 1ish, so instead of staying up through the night and suffering through the game, i thought i'll record it and watch it just before I set off to the match. Woke up about 6, turned the telly off standby, not realising we'd kept it on box office, only for it to come on and show Mayweather celebrating in the corner.

    Pacquiao/Hatton. Had a massive party at mine when was at University. Was going great, but I fell asleep mortal drunk at 4am. Woke up at 7m completely rattled that I'd missed the fight :(

    I missed Brook vs Porter because I was in holiday in Greece to be honest was better I watched it next morning at some English bar with a fry-up and Guiness. Recently I missed Joshua vs Povetkin to be honest, I could cope with that. I would have paid the PPV but I’m not overly excited at the moment unless AJ is fighting Wilder, Fury, whyte or Usyk.

    Turns out Jay Bright wasn't that bright after all eh!!!

    Besides even if they had the correct endswell etc etc Tyson was getting a hiding anyway, Buster was just way too up for it for Mike to do anything other than what he done...

    Bruno fought a great fight against Kid Dynamite, and paved the way for others who believed they could not do it, he gave them belief...

    Buster seized the moment.....
