Well done Terminator666 ! That's the one "Sir Percy"

The BBC nailed it with that theme tune :salut:

The feeling of excitement that tune would generate during the intro along with images of each fighter shadow boxing or footage of them decking someone. Then host Des Lynam setting the scene to perfection :salut:

Yep, it doesn't get any better. It was like nothing in the world was more important :bow:
