What was the first fight that you can vividly recall watching ?

Since I used to get boxing tips from Willie Pep at Stillman's Gym, I shouted my lungs out at the Garden when he when took back the title from from Saddler in '49.

 

Yeah, B.B. and J.G.,...you guys have experiences worth more than gold...seeing Robinson, Pep, Saddler, etc.,...man..

 

Holyfield vs Adilson "Maguila" Rodrigues

 

First fight watching on TV was Holmes-Williams.

First fight attended was Barrera-Morales 2 at the MGM in Vegas. Fights breaking out all over the arena.

I posted earlier.... But it was "Ali-Young" from '76, and then Ali's stinker with Coopman... That was my introduction to boxing..... WORD!

Note:

My first fight that I taped was "Alexis Arguello vs. Kevin Rooney" from '82... TRUTH!

MR.BILL

 

There was a fight on TV, my grandfather asked my uncle what fight was on, and he told him Larry Holmes and Michael Spinks.

I don't know if it was the first or second bout.

This was the first real fight I remember watching. I know I watched Rocky 3 before this.

 

Lewis vs Bruno I think

 

Floyd Patterson-George Chuvalo 1965.

 

I dont know Stevie......he received that nickname because of his physical similarities with Magilla Gorilla (Maguila, o Gorila, a very popular cartoon in Brazil)
