you have no idea how often people ask the details of this fight. i guess i must have rare videos?

Doesn't KO 6 imply Page was knocked down? If not he'd be the first man to get knocked out without being knocked down.

people ask me about these fights all the time. their is a real mystery about them.

if you added the info about the 1st fight it would be very helpful.

i dont know whether the fight was taped but i read up on it from a magazine at the time, and during the broadcast of gary mason v mark wills harry carpenter points out he stopped ex-champ greg page on a cut, in a fight were both men were down.

i do have the 2nd fight.

I have at least two magazines covering the 2nd Wills-Page fight. I'll see what I can find in there about the 1st one.

The reference to the knockdown Greg Page scored over Mark Wills in their first fight has been removed from the line of text under the fight entry, but the knockdowns Wills scored are still recorded. Shouldn't this be put back in?

For quick and handy verification, here is the video. Page knocks Wills down at 5.30.

Don't think YouTube existed when this thread started!
