Anyone remember...

Post by Ezzard »

I'm trtying to recall the names of the fighters involved in a 1980s Cruiserweight title fight.

I think the fight was held in Monte Carlo. It was a Rocky style ending with both men landing at the same time, both going down and then having to try and get back up to beat the count.

What were the names of the two guys involved (it's really annoying me that i don't remember)?

Must have been Lee Roy Murphy- Chisanda Mutti. Never seen the fight but sounds like a classic :TU: .

Murphy-Miutti, yes that was it... many thanks Sherlock, you're a gent. It was on ITV (UK channel) one saturday afternoon. They only showed the highlights. It was quite an ending.
