Made a U.S fan that day. The friends I was watching with despised Benn ;D. As Barkly said.."Nah I'm no sour grapes". Great blitz free for all.

This day in 1968 a great was born. Fav with a wicked inside short counter that so many did not see coming.

27 September 1986 - Honeyghan v Curry


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GfCVvvlBX0

1986 was a vintage year for boxing. No one thought the Raggamuffin man would beat the lone star cobra but he pulled off the greatest British upset away from home ever.

Honeyghan put on a number of exciting defences afterwards on BBC.

Quality flashback there. Never thought they anticipated the speed and exactly how confident Honeyghan came in. He had zero respect and put a beating on Curry who was already anointed 'the next coming'.

The first in a trilogy between two greats, Diego Corrales and Joel Casamayor..... Oct 4, 2003

Diego Corrales brave right to the end against Joel Casamayor, he did not want that fight to stop.

(Tito that doctor that stopped the fight was hot, was it the spectacles?)

Marcel Cerdan is killed in plane crash on his way to rematch with Jake LaMotta.
