    You got Lederman (RIP) appreciating Chavez work yet to a more attentive, (non-casual) eye, this battle was a masterclass in counterpunching.
    There is a fragment of Chavez parents huddling together anxiously after watchin' their son eatin' so many punches.

    This was helluva slugfest in full Holyfield style. Stewart couldn't outbrawl the atg warrior. Now I wonder how Stewart child felt watchin' his dad being overwhelmed by his opponent and havin a face so full of bloody cuts.

    Similar to the first match I posted, I couldn't imagine being Lenny and not reactin like "Look how he massacred my boy" after assistin' this. Would have stopped it sooner yet I'm surprised Mancini wasn't ruined after takin' such punishment in young age, a legendary encounter fo' sho'.

    I don't have any film clips but I've read that Smokin' Joe's family all went to pieces after his 1st fight with George. I think one of his sister's fainted and of course, it was a shock for Marvis to have to witness.
