    Herol Graham v Rod Douglas is a classic demonstration of boxing beating brawn, and if anyone doubts that the bomber would not have beaten Benn/Eubanks/Watson just watch that contest.

    I want to see Ray Mancini vs Livingstone Bramle 2, i've seen the 1st one and loved it. But haven't been able to get hold of the rematch for some reason.
