    He probably deserved to win that 2nd fight purely on having the stones to survive that 2nd round.

    A lot of trainers would have pulled him after that..... it was as bad as the three minute hiding Paul Lloyd took from Barrera.

    Great Post. The Bruno win choked me up. That was when Britain united. Not always does a nation pull behind one man but Frank was such a nice guy that everyone wanted him to do it so badly. Warren did a great job. Fitting night and a night i never forget. Stuff of dreams...that night.

    Sad but true mate :good. Ike was a beast. When you look at the depth back then it's amazing. Now we only really care for a few domestic heavy clashes and Klit's vs Haye. The depth just isn't there nor are the characters.

    I bet if the General was around in those days Ruiz would have been labelled a glass-jawed joke/fraud etc.

    ****s.
