    Definitely. :D

    I still buzz of that night, great evening. I was so elated, i kept on drinking all the next day and finally got home around 8.30pm Sunday night after a mammoth O'Toole/Harris-esque session that began at 3pm on the Saturday for a world cup qualifier, then Nigel fighting, then back at an all-night party for the big one.

    Yes, i think it's important to remember who you were rooting for at the time, rather than what we're thinking years later. I often remind my mates (who forget) that at the time we all wanted Leonard to beat Hagler, in school, when they all like Marv more ever since (I probably do too, although still fans of both).

    Tyson's definitely the most popular older fighter these days with my son, nephew and their mates though, his style kinda fits in perfectly with the Tik-Tok generation (Quick clip - spectacular KO).
