His fight with Zamora was awesome a Thomas Hearns vs Marvin Hagler type of war if its the right fight im thinking of, is that the fight where some guy in the crowd comes into the ring with only his underpants on or something like that ??
I have to admit I've never been able to see that fight. But I'm told the buildup to the fight was huge, considering it matched two great, unbeaten Mexican fighters against one another. They should show it on ESPN Classic.
