Not British but this show came to mind straight away. Funnily enough Oliver Mcall was on this show as well.

So was I thought Benn won. Funny how Michael Nunn knew it was a draw before it was announced.

Ali and Cooper back in '66 was a pretty big deal in England, I would reckon.
I remember watching it live on ABC's Wide World of Sports.
'Enery bled something awful in that 6th round.

The biggest is yet to come. . . When undefeated Anthony Joshua wins a version of the heavyweight title and then meets undefeated Tyson Fury in a unifier.

And yet there was nothing in the contract about Michael Nunn.
It was widely expected that the victor would fave him, but there was nothing concrete about it - much to Don King's annoyance.

Frock vs Groves II was a MASSIVE event, the biggest crowd attendance figures in the UK since the 2nd world war.
Calzaghe vs Kessler was also a big event with major meaning at the World level.

Hatton vs kostya was a pretty good event.
