I had no clue that Hasim Rahman fought Trevor Berbick. Has anybody seen this fight? Does anybody have this fight? Send me a personal message if so please.
Yeah, I have it on tape in my box of tricks.... This was back about 10 years ago---Circa 1997 / '98.... Rahman was young and wins a decision over the aged Trevor Berbick.... Christ, Berbick had to be 40 at the time.... It was televised by the USA Tuesday Night fights with Al Albert and Sean O'Grady calling the action.... NOT a great fight at all....:-( MR.BILL
I got it labled. Let me poke around some boxes... I'll find it... Hell, I just saw it somewhere a little while ago while I was searching for other ****..... E-Mail me.... This content is protected :think ... I'll make you a copy... MR.BILL
Far as I recall, it was almost all Rahman sticking the jab for 10 rounds and Berbick unable to close the distance. I also know that Larry Holmes personally congratulated Rahman for the win afterwards...still a bit of bad blood there obviously.
if i remember rahman actually dropped berbick in the opening round i think...i know berbick did go down in the fight though
You're absolutely right...Berbick was down in the 1st, and against the ropes for the rest of the round. Rahman always had him wobbling in the 4th.
I found my tape:nut I got do a quick review of it... Rahman was just too young for Berbick... But Berbick did try...:| MR.BILL
