    I take it the majority of the listed fights encompass fighters who no longer deal with the same promoters........

    Amazing the consistency of the name O'Neil Bell.. He was a tough fighter here in the 1940's or 1950's... I hope the name is carried on through immediate family line.

    Was only watching Kali vs Brewster the other day.

    Kali started well, but IMO the fight was closer than most thought.

    There was a late round where Kali absolute dominated, and nearly finished Brewster. Kali finished over the top of him too, though from memory he was out on his feet at the final bell. Couldn't see how Kali didn't get the nod though!

    fenech nelson 1. there was a moment when don king walked past fenech in the ring after the decision. you could read by fenechs posture that he had it in his mind to break the ****s jaw. pity he didnt. it would have been the greatest punch ever thrown....

    Can't argue with you there Sally.

    Haven't seen too many more pissed off fighters after a decision than Fenech was after that particular fight...and with just cause too!

    ok...heres one.

    the doctor took too long to check on mundine after he was ktfo in germany.....however, the doc may have been confused by all the cheers of australians..as well as germans.

    next time, i hope the doc gets there quicker.....

    I don't agree with Juarez v John if they are suggesting that Juarez should have got the nod
