I've wanted to see this for 20 odd years and never found it until now. I know it probably doesn't belong in this forum but in case any of the brit & irish regulars are like me interested in seeing it... surprised that it is actually a controversial stoppage.

I never found it difficult to get hold of. In about 1996 I bought it from one of the sellers in the Boxing Monthly classified pages. It is harder to get on DVD, for some reason, probably because of picture quality. Actually, I do recall my tape had Spanish commentary so perhaps it hasn't been shown over here or in the states.

had this fight for a while on tape.

quality is poor though.

mccallum jumps on him and f*cks him up.

stoppage was a bit premature though.

Great little fight, used to have a perfect copy of it, Spanish commentary as it was shown Mex TV I think. This one is terrbile quality, but you should be able to get a excellent copy off red dragon say.

Always thought the stopage was fine - McCallum is shocked by the then unknown Jackson's power, he nearly goes over, but recovers quick and decides to take out the young upstart ASAP - brilliant performance by Mike.
