Bizarrely ive had a sudden & strange turn about with ole JC 'Manos De Glass' and i wanna see more of his fights.
Ive never seen his first 2 defences on anyones lists despite watching em myself live at the time.
Any of you Fokkers tape these fights or point me in the right direction so that i can check them out again?
Cheers babe.

Must admit that those two 'classics' have somehow eluded me... maybe fell down the gap on the shelves between Hagler Vs Hearns and Leonard Vs Duran

He's openly jumping on the bandwagon. "Sudden and strange turn" = "I never cared about Joe until he beat Lacy. I figured why not jump aboard while the going is good."

Is he talking about Sobot and Ferryra....I can't even decipher what he's asking for...

I remember thinking the Sobot win was pretty good at the time - a left uppercut flattens him I think. More entertaining than the Giminez one that's for sure.
I still have it on tape last time I looked. Could trade you a DVD I guess - got any Jeff Merritt? I know you're a heavyweight specialist....

1. To clarify, the fights im talking about are KO3 Branko Sabot & KO9 Juan Carlos Gimenez, or as boxrec have handily renamed him, "Ferreya" (thanks guys)
2. no i am not mentally ill, just disturbed
3. yes i am unashamedly jumping on the bandwagon whats your beef?
4. no way in hell wouldi want an NTSC version as it was broadcast on Sky in the UK & dont want a depleted copy thats done several rounds over the world.
Cheers!

Ask boxrec member Red Dragon.
Top man.

Red dragon doesnt have original gen copies dating back to 1998 mate.
2003 maybe, not 98.

I wouldn't tease a fellow Calzaghe fan now.
The quality of the fights are the same as if you taped them off the TV yourself.
