    When I was very young I saw a bunch of early Tyson fights. But the first first that I have a clear memory of was Tyson v Douglass. I was only 9 and a half years old.

    First fight I remember sitting down and watching live was Ricky Hatton vs. Michael Stewart. His last fight that was free on Sky.

    I've watched other fights before that, but I can't really remember which ones. I remember Naseem Hamed, Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson.

    Luisito Espinosa verses Manuel Medina. Was a wee lad back then. Was watching while my dad was downing a San Miguel.

    I don't recall, but I'm sure it was a Joey Gamache fight. He used to live in the same building as a friend of my family, so we would go over all the time and I'd play out from with his nephew. I remember he always had a large bowl of Tootsie Pops. Anyway we would go to all of his fights here in Lewiston. I was pretty young, so I don't remember much.
