Tommy Morrison's son went on to do a rather more emphatic number on Dawson.

It's no wonder he hasn't laced up the gloves since.

He was beyond woeful, so bad in fact that I'm surprised David Haye didn't give him a call in 2016! :doh:

Was it at MEN?? He's from Preston himself, but the whole UK know him.. Like you said, casuals would have brought tickets.

I went. The press row had been shoved into the stands. Andy Whittle went postal and got it sorted. He was like Moses leading his people that night. I left as soon as Vassell-Heffron was done and dusted.

How much you reckon Barry McGuigan made on this event..

He must have boosted BN subscribers for that month with all the casuals.

Not sure what the ticket prices were.. Sold 5,000 strong.

Yeah that was kind of a giveaway that the whole thing was fixed. Love the way that Dawson only lands one punch during the entire fight, thrown instinctively, and still accidentally manages to score a knockdown :lol:

I reckon I could've rattled 15 cans and a half gram of prop and still stiffened these two faggots! Even the thought of this debacle makes me feel dirty, ashamed and violated...

:lol: Dawson near shat his pants when he dropped Flintoff

A 4 rounder and I'm pretty sure the scorecard were ballsed up, I think Freddie had 39 points despite being decked :KO:
