This fight caught the public imagination to the point it got more attention than the world title fight which was onn the same bill.I watched it in a south wales pub and it was the fight that every body wanted to watch.
The public were talking about it and it was in the newspapers a lot as well.
I could be wrong because I was only young at the time but was Lennox Lewis-Gary Mason the last British title fight that got so much attention.
Any other big British title fights anybody can remember??
