"...while 51-year-old Witherspoon showed flashes of the brilliance that made him the talk of the boxing world in the 1980’s."

If Witherspoon had really shown even half a flash of the brilliance that made him a world champion, the fight wouldn't have lasted long.

Anyway, it wasn't a REAL comedown. It was a classy event:

"...the Elvis impersonator was on by the time the boxers hit the dressing room."

Am I right in thinking that Nigel Rafferty beat Tim Witherspoon?? Is this some kind of parallel universe

Rafferty was 'up' for it and had shed several stone to get down to heavy (he had ballooned since his proper fighting days came to an end when he failed a brain scan).
The whole thing was a dangerous excercise in fighting and a great exercise in slimming.
