    Yes,JG.When Brian London boxed Johnny Prescott.Was adjudged to have lost,shocking decision.Man came out of the crowd into the ring,towards London,who nutted him.Out like a light.

    Cant really remember,John.I was a schoolboy at the time.But I don't think anything was done about it.Thinking about it now,there'd be an inquiry or something if it happened now,as in Fury/Chisora.Dont know whether you remember,there was a brawl afterLondon/Richardson,where Brians old man got involved.That MAY be on youtube.

    Thought this was appropriate 'n ya might enjoy, T:

    When Roberto Duran was training to fight Carlos Palomino at Madison Square Garden, he worked out at Howard Albert's gym, an ol' factory loft in the Garment Center.

    It was summertime, 'n sweltering. Every Latino worker in the area-- and their families -- watched their hero train at lunchtime.

    The gym was a steam room -- jammed cheek-to-jowl with the adoring. They pressed so close Duran barely had room for floor exercises. When he was done, he jumped in the ring to shadow box.

    Spanning what looked like a crowded subway car, you could see chests swell – faces beaming with pride. Plump mothers holding babies in their arms stood at the ring apron, while their little ones looked up saucer-eyed at this God.

    In the midst of this love fest, somebody in the back -- unbelievably! -- kept shouting at Duran in Spanish: "PIPINO CUEVAS WILL KILL YOU!

    Duran paid him no mind and continued shadow boxing. But the heckler was relentless: "PIPINO CUEVAS WILL KILL YOU! "PIPINO CUEVAS WILL KILL YOU!”

    Finally, Duran fixed him with a glare, stretched as far over the ropes as he could -- just above the glowing faces of mothers and tykes -- and yanked down his trunks, grabbed his nuts and roared in Spanish: "PIPINO CUEVAS CAN SUK MY C O C K!”

    JG,even though Ive always thought of him as the perfect gentleman,I guess he could be crude under such extreme provocation.Find it hard to believe that the most ardent Pipino supporter would have such cojones though.True or not,great story,mate.

    Someone broke one of those big old cellphones over Golotas head during the Bowe-Golota brawl.

    And Golota answered with a punch :rofl
