    Glad you enjoyed.
    I saw it live on the MSG Network.,,,,,

    Ike Padilla 3-0-0 (3 KO's) had just signed a 1-year/10-fight pact with
    Madison Square Garden.
    They were going to build him up, as the NYC groomed Heavyweight.
    He was big NYC Golden Gloves star.

    Leland 'Sugarman' Hardy 3-2-1 (2 KO's), also a Tae-Kwon-Do expert.

    The power of their warrior spirits must have allowed them to battle on in such crippling heat, those guys wanted to FIGHT! :!:

    darnell wilson vs emmanuel nwodo back in 2007 on espn fnf - there was no skill involved..swinging for the fences ended in one of the most brutal ko's in recent memory

    No fight excited me more than Benn-McClellan, yes the tragic ending was horrible, but this was the most brutal & vicious slugfest i've ever seen, with incredible warrior hearts shown by both, as they traded atomic bombs.

    The other isn't on youtube--Kenny Keene vs. Terry Ray I

    usually most ppl focus on what happened to gerald which is very tragic, but nigel's injuries were just as bad....broken jaw, broken ribs, torn muscles in his neck, a shadow on the brain, involuntary shivering...it was a brutal fight
