    December 10th seems to be a special date for boxing

    KTFO6 also happened a day or two from then

    Astonishing fight.

    Would've been stopped in the first if it took place now.

    Watching the original Frazier v Ali recently, it was great hearing Archie Moore do the special comments.

    All those fights over all those years & he still had his marbles intact.

    Definitely one of the greatest fights ever. I remember watching this in a bar in Spain while I was on a stag do. The stag do was terrible so both me and my mate just ended up watching the whole fight. I'd seen it before but my friend hadn't and was blown away by it.

    These names are too obscure for me. Not watching this weird old stuff. Gonna go listen to Capital FM instead.

    Iggy was one smart fighter...my favorite Russian heavyweight...better than Chagaev IMO.
