Did anyone watch this?
If you don't know the result, I won't spoil it - but I highly recommend it, try and seek it out.
Great fight and both men a credit to the sport. Biggest crowd for a post war fight in the UK apparently, and they got their moneys worth.
I was a big fight fan but lost interest in about early 90's as the heavy weights in particular thought that it was enough to turn up, and walk around the ring in slow motion and jab a bit and pick up the purse, often manufacturing hype and tedious rematches to milk the public. Some of the so called champions of the modern era really were not athletes, and no way compare to the greats of the 70's.
