Is it just me or does anyone else like watching footage of the pro debuts of boxings stars/champions? I always find it interesting to see how they start out and then watch there later fights and see how much they've progressed and wat they've changed or kept the same. Anyone got any good footage of the pro debuts of some big names in the sport???

Impressive stuff by Joel.. certainly didnt waste any time in puttin to first touches onto his pro legacy.. His opponent looked like he had no clue what he'd gotten himself into haha. I think though a 0-1-1 opponent for his pro debut is a lil soft though. considering Joel was pretty much a complete boxer coming from his almost 400 amatuer fights. guess match makers were just tryin to test the pro waters with a soft touch to start with but its pretty obivous El Cepillo was always gonna dominate that fight. also i just punched El Cepillo into google translate.. detects spanish and translate to 'Brush' in english? :huh can anyone clarify if thats correct?
cheers for the input guys! keep them coming! I'm trying to make it through every video but my internet connection is pretty slow at the moment so may take a while..
