Just looked it up now, Indian Red (Ernie) Little Red was his brother :doh:

I remember reading in Jim Watt's autobiography that he was going to fight on the undercard of Earnie Shavers vs Richard Dunn but it was shelved. Just as well I suppose! :bag:

I'll throw in Karl Taylor's win over Dingaan Thobela.

Thobela had been a world champion at lightweight the year before and would go on to be a world champion again at super-middle, whereas Taylor would win only 4 of his following 130 fights.
