    Holyfield TKO 11 Tyson. Need to find vid. Actually loved this fight and finally meeting up. Remember when The Ring picked Mike to steamroll a 'shot' Holyfield by KO1 and the announcers suggested EMTs with ambulance should be on the way? I 'member

    Tyson nearly did it with his first punch when Holyfield was expecting a left hook and got smashed with a right hand. If only it did.

    Naz was at the absolute height of popularity right here, just breaking into America. Sadly, his boxing/discipline had already started to erode. Made for a bonkers up and downer though that everyone enjoyed.

    Mercer was losing the fight big and then lands that one knock out shot that pulls the victory.

    Loved the bit where the interviewer asked Mercer if he thought he was losing the fight and he says "are you drunk" of course I was behind.
