Fight I haven't watched but really ought to

Post by chinny »

Until about an hour ago, because of Sky's pesky tricks in trying to sell the then-new sky digital, I had never seen De La Hoya-Trinidad.

Well I just watched it and despite expecting a stinker it held my interest all the way through.

Next on my list is Erik Morales-Junior Jones. Don't know why I missed it at the time, may have been on hols, but miss it I did.

How about you?

Ive never watched Hatton Mayweather on the TV. Thought of watching it a few times as I have to on DVD, but never got round to it.

Next on my list is Tapia Medina, which I believe is a corker in which tapia broke the world record for punches thrown in a fight, i think.

Watched Hopkins vs Trinidad over the w/end again after reading an article about B-Hop in Boxing Monthly and how he ruins guys, so fancied it again. Hopkins absolutely unreal in that fight.

Watched Holyfiled vs Bowe I too. Great fight also.

Hopkins 4-1 outsider going into the fight, how crazy are them odds in retrospect.

Few early-80s fights.

Not seen any of the punchathons involving Bobby Chacon/Boza Edwards/Limon. Keep meaning to as apparently they're excellent.

Also title fights involving Matthew Saad Muhammad are apparently brilliant.

I 'ACTUALLY' watched Nigel Benn against Anthony Logan yesterday, what a fight, with the atmosphere, Andrenaline, no TV, Press galore!!, Nigel had just left Warren, and it was Frank Maloney, Ambrose Mendy, Terry Marsh, 1st big promotion at the Albert hall, it was packed to the rafters, no 'official TV' it was a gamble and it paid off!! what a fight.........

What do you mean no official TV? Does that mean the clips I've seen of it are yours?
