itv 4 are also showing Big Fight Greatest Knockouts at 8.15 tonight , just after the reg programme. has the greatest knockouts been on before or has anyone seen it before? should be well worth a watch as well as the reg programme.
the reg programme is repeated sunday at 12.40pm for anyone who cannot watch it saturday night.

Its nice that ITV have done this, the shortened one that was on during the Thaxton show was good, looking forward to watching this evening.
Would be good to see something on the Finnegan brothers as well. Both lead interesting lives

Bump, just about to start.
Re: Reg Gutteridge special today Itv4
yes I thought it was the same tribute, didn't realise it was an extended version. Good tribute.Old bones Ian wrote:Its nice that ITV have done this, the shortened one that was on during the Thaxton show was good, looking forward to watching this evening.

plenty of good stuff to enjoy watching again in both programmes.jspain wrote:itv 4 are also showing Big Fight Greatest Knockouts at 8.15 tonight , just after the reg programme. has the greatest knockouts been on before or has anyone seen it before? should be well worth a watch as well as the reg programme.

Low-lights for me included the inept white haired old fecker that refereed Ali versus Blinn. Counted to ten stood over a prone fighter then basically did feck all and the guy, just getting to his feet was about to fight on only to be rescued by the crowd who invaded the ring while the inept old feck just stood there. I have seen some seriously bad German reffing good to see it's not a new thing.
Joe Cortez doing his best to allow Mike Tyson to just about kill Larry Holmes. Holmes threw approximately zero punches for the last 2 minutes, just soaked up bombs went over 2 or 3 times. Good one ref
The geezer that let Pyatt concuss Caballero, twice. Once usually being the norm in boxing. Piss poor.
Particularly impressed with that beauty left that Brad Pryce done Conception with, had not really seen that properly. Really looking forward to watching him and Hall next week for the C'wealth.

Re: Reg Gutteridge special today Itv4
Superb tribute from ITV.
There was even more than met the eye to Reg Gutteridge. I had no idea it was Reg who tipped off Terry Lawless about Jim Watt. Seems he had an influence on allegedly and probably many others.
