Rocky III tweaked my interest in 1982 but it got real when I sat down and watched Hagler v Hearns with my old man in 1985 and then Tyson exploded onto the scene in 1986.. I was hooked
Back as a teenager in the 90s watching a boxing documentary on the rumble in the jungle called When We Were Kings. Went back and watched loads of Ali's old fights, and that lead me to modern boxing, with the likes of Tyson, Lewis, Naz etc
