Re: This Month In Boxing History: McGuigan vs. McDonnell
This is funny, about a week ago I watched the DVD of McGuigan-Cruz after ordering it from a mate. CRACKING fight, but yes very disappointing for Barry.
The McDonnell fight was stopped on cuts if I remember. Ring mag or KO or Boxing 89 had an article called when Irish Eyes Are Bleeding...
I also recently rewatched the Azumah Nelson-Pat Cowdell, and after brutally knocking out Cowdell in one round, Nelson calls out McGuigan and makes fun of him.
I'm glad Barry never got a fight with Nelson, coz Barry was good but at his peak Nelson was scary good.
