    tell you what you guys are lucky as hell to have lived through that like the Fab Four and Tyson age. Pacquiao is the icon of my generation and he is amazing and up there with them but it aint the same

    I remember just before football focus they showed a clip of Tyson bobbing and weaving and taking shots then BANG...KO...:nut That was the first time I saw Tyson...:yep

    Some great nights in our house watching McGuigan as a kid...:good

    I remember his fight with Juan LaPorte like it was yesterday when he swallowed that shot in the 9th and held on in there...!

    The first Ali-Spinks is my first Ali fight. The first domestic one was Watt-Nash, it never gets mentioned now but that fight was all over the press because of the sectarian angle.
