Yes it was. The Mugabi fight was way better. You made me go back and look, and it was a stinker.

It read like you said it was a better fight to watch, it wasn't.
Yes I did. So what? I enjoyed the 2 round KO.
No matter how much Green wanted out at the end.
Just a strange fight to recommend in 2 decades with god knows how many better to watch.

My memory of Hard Rock wasn't as good as I remember. I remember a fireplug action fighter who always had to overcome much taller opposition. Exciting and fearless, could I have mentioned a worse fight??? LMAO!

Bobby Czyz vs Prince Charles Williams was a great fight from the 80s!

Carlos Monzon v. Rodrigo Valdes. Second fight. Past prime Monzon showing his resilience v. the guy who gave him fits.

Monzon v. Benvenuti. First fight. When I fell in love with Escopeta!
