What did you think about the fight at the time mate?

Ahh mate it was crazy i remember all my family coming round to watch it, it was like Godzilla vs King Kong at the time for me. I remember mostly everyone thinking Mike Tyson would win the hype was crazy.

What a great night it was though i remember people jumping up and down, shouting you name it. I was just in awe at the exchanges, heart, will, skill. I had seen nothing like it before, and that fight made me a fan for life. And after that i would get my grandad to tell me all his stories about his boxing days and etc.

Wow you remember it in some detail. How old were you in 96? That fight was on early hours of the morning right? Sounds like a right family knees up.

First fight I can remember wasnt live but I went to me nans to watch a repeat of Bruno Witherspoon. Some twat told me what happened before it started, felt gutted.

9th November 1996 what a horrible night that was for me i could have cried. I kept getting up for a drink after round 6 thinking i would hear my mum shout YES! like Tyson had got him but if didn't happen.
