Enzo Macc v Lee Swaby

Post by MightyWarrior »

Is there a video out there on this one? Has anyone ever seen it? I've tried to get a copy over the years, but never had any luck - even Red Dragon hasn't got this one as far as I know. Shown on BBC Wales I think.

Have Sports Network managed to erase all copies in existance??

I have a guy in the US that's pretty sht hot if you want his e-mail.

That would explain why red dragon hasn't sent it to me in my last three orders.

I've seen it. Enzo looked so scrawny when he first turned pro as a teenager. Big Mac dominated the first round and I seem to recall him bundling Swaby to the canvas in round two. Swaby faired better in the third though, fundamentally because he established his southpaw jab which disrupted Enzo's ryhthm and concentration.

The finish was sudden. Enzo stood square on in the centre of the ring and Swaby nailed him with a one-two with a straight left dumping Maccarinelli flat on his back. He was never going to beat the count, it was as clean a knock out as you are ever likely to see. It wasn't a lucky punch, and at the time of the ending Swaby was holding his own - as I said earlier the southpaw jab was a critical factor.

Thanks Ben, sounds like a pretty good account of how it went, still love to actually see the fight though. Enzo says he was out on the p*ss the night before...

And Livingstone, I doubt Enzo would be too thrilled about providing me with a DVD showing him getting flattened!

I'm impressed by how quickly a thread about the failings of a boxers chin has become a dissucssion of Stu's video collection.

Watched it on tv live. Think it was a Friday night. Think's Ben's description of proceedings pretty much sums it up. Macca was out for the count.

Didn't you "lend" me your copy mate? Apologies for not returning it, I can't remember to be honest. I'm still hungover from the Octagon show.
