The UK broadcast audio version !
That was a Great HW Battle.
I saw it Live on Tv when I was 10.
Alot of back and forth Action.
Weaver's Superior Stamina(In the Classic Days Championship Rounds) was the Prevailing Factor.
Amazing that he had That type of Stamina to go along with That type of Physique.
It ended in the 13th round. A more pronounced ending than the 13th round Tko that Holmes had over Cooney a couple of years later. Cooney-Coetzee would've been a Great Bout.

Watched Lennox Lewis v Tommy Morrison and Mike Weaver this weekend.
I remember watching the Weaver fight on ITV, I think they played it on the Sunday night after the fight on Friday. A hell of a finish from Lewis to put Weaver down for the count.
The Morrison fight showed the levels between the two. There's no doubting Morrison's toughness but Lewis was just far too good for the Duke.

Clinton Woods vs Crawford Ashley
Crawford was a bang tidy fighter, and he went in with the best and often
I watched the fight again and he gives Clinton problems and often looks better...but Woods was fairly remorseless and basically Crawford has already had Nunn, Andries, Klemetsen and Hill on his resume and that was a factor.
Big Yorkshire dust-up, Sheffield v Leeds, and I'd forgotten how good Crawford was.
