1987: Charles Williams vs Bobby Czyz
A personal favourite there; Czyz was getting a lot of hype, and Williams was meant to be blown away. And he nearly was...
But as well as being a really good fight, it was at a time, where you could stick on ITV in the middle of the night and without no previous advertising you had the whole bill live in the middle of week. It had the historic (first man to win four claims of a world title at different weights) Hearns/Roldan fight as the nominal main event, which was also a fun scrap.
I remember staying up for this card. Good old days.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
