    i've posted this here before...but its hidden away in some thread way back in the archives here somewhere...so i'll stick it up here again....its from a book i have that is full of newspaper reports from 1910 onwards....this has a picture so i might just about get away with posting it here...
    what i liked about this was the style of writing, you'd never see a fight reported like this nowadays...how it describes how battered and broken the boxers were afterwards...

    anyway..

    Christ our newspapers are dumb when it comes to boxing! :lol:

    It never would've happened, Tyson loved Ali too much as a hero to even dream of hurting him.

    Another of my favourite fights ever - the stubborn Tommy Farr's brave stand against the prime Joe Louis
