My earliest memories is Watching Fenech fight for his first Title. Then watching as Mike Tyson punched his way through the Heavy weights.

My first big fight I watched was Tony Mundine vs Bunny Stirling 1 .
Bunny was a very slick mover where as Tony was all business trying to get the job done but the bout ended in a draw, thankfully later in the rematch Tony stopped him. Great entertainment for an 11 year old boy growing up in Eveleigh st Redfern. Proud as punch!

Tyson vs Berbick....watched it as a kid after that I wasnt afraid of the older kids that bullied me at school.

Tells you something about styles making fights. Mundine beat sterling in their second fight, but in between Sterling outpointed Luis Rodriguez, who had KOed Mundine in the first round of their fight and KOed Tom Bethea who had won a non-title fight against Nino Benvenutti.

rodrigues had been up 15 yrs before he met mundine and sterling,and had a few great fights on the way, virgil atkins, curtis cokes, rubin carter, paret , briscoe and griffiths,tony got him on the wrong night. all the best
