Old ITV Boxing Theme Tune

[IRONFIST]

#2 for sure

#1 sounds like the music when bat man and robin chase robbers or something

my fave by far though

Probably why I prefer the first tune, I like the 60's Adam West version of Batman.

That's a good tune, so is this one :

[IRONFIST]

This one from the bbc boxing beats them all

Instantly reminded of old Harry and Frank

I also enjoyed the Sportsnight theme :

[BigGar]

Second by a mile !!

[Blangaz1]

Love the ‘High Shaft’ first version. It’s a personal thing. It takes me right back to when I first got into boxing.

[Alba]

Second one.

Sounds really cheesy now though after all these years.

Does it?

[stujones]

First one because that was the days of Duran Leonard Hearns and Hagler

Leonard vs Hagler was the second one.

There was a transitional one also, but not sure if it was a one off…but if you search itv Bruno vs Witherspoon. It’s a third 1980s boxing theme.

Remember watching this at about 6am every Saturday as a kid. Remember them doing a feature on Sven Ottke,

[Coco]

In this day and age. trans World Sport should be making a comeback

Sven Ottke? Did it send you back to sleep?

Got to love the bbc intro in the early 2000s

[Controversial]

Second one.
Almost got me off the sofa to shadow box lol

Got to love the bbc intro in the early 2000s

Anyone spot a young Kevin Mitchell in that one? In the headgear.

Guy at the start is Sam Rowlandson, had a couple of fights at 91kg+ out of Collyhurst and Moston. Won both by KO and then packed it in to do other things.

Courtney Fry is fairly obvious.

Andrew Lowe who boxed out of Repton and then as a light heavyweight pro is the other black guy.

Not sure about the white lad with the fighter's nose.

SKY took it up a notch with Satisfied by Richard Marx and Some Like it Hot by The Power Station.

I can remember watching Peter Oboh vs Andrew Lowe on bbc back in my really early days of getting into boxing.

I know there’s guys here who dwarf my years of watching boxing but it’s now 25 years of watching boxing every weekend and following the results from around the world.

All 3 are crackers.
Great TV themes from the likes of Laurie Johnson, Keith Mansfield, Alan Hawkshaw, Johnny Pearson, Ron Grainer and Mike Post are in short supply these days sadly.
