    Peter coming in weighing a metric ton made me think of this. I also had the thought that Chambers isnt ever in THAT great of shape either, so he'd better pace his beating of peters face or he could gas out too...

    Ali/Foreman (sadly)
    Wlad/Brewster (even more sadly)

    Rosario v Ramirez II.
    It was the 1984 FOTY and has to be seen to be believed!

    Nigel Benn v Michael Watson. Watson fought the perfect fight, let Benn punch himself out and then finished him off.
