    Does anyone have an interest in starting and maintaining a boxing trivia thread. The idea would be for someone to ask a question, and then whoever knows the answer can post it along with a question of their own.

    I know he went the distance with Mike Colbert, but not sure if it was the first guy to go the distance with him, that fight was back in 79 I think.

    Who the first fighter to knock Wlad down?

    Norris? I know the fight was back in 95 on Fox, I think Terry Norris fought on the undercard.

    Norris fought Vaden.
    Carl Daniels vs. Julio Cesar Vazquez was the first fight shown. It was also KO of the year for Vazquez.

    You know...being able to partially answer these questions feeds directly into backing up the notion my wife has that I watch ENTIRELY TOO MUCH BOXING....

    Thats it, I knew Norris fought on a Tyson undercard, I just forgot who he fought.

    I got one, who fought on the Tyson/Nielson undercard?

    Not on that one, I will give you a clue or two, the fight was fought in Denmark, it took place in 01, it featured one of the top 10 P4P current champs in the undercard.

    Ah yes that was Calzaghe's first fight abroad. Don't remember the lamb he fought, didn't see the fight, but remember reading about it.

    I will give you it, Calzaghe fought McIntyre(spell check), he made him look pretty bad in that one.
