What fight turned you from a casual fan to a hardcore fan? - Page 2

Harry Balls

I was always a hardcore fan. The level of immersion have just gone up from already worrying levels.

Rocky made me intrigued and from there it went.

Back then when Mike Tyson was in his prime it wasn't hard to be a boxing fan. It was everywhere.

Kimbo Slice on youtube.

Tito-Vargas got me into watching it, but PAC-cotto turned me into a hardcore fan

I was always a fan of boxing/anything fighting, just didnt care about following boxing whatsoever. I saw cotto, saw his fighting mannerisms and style and it reminded me of me, so i was hooked in that regard. Didnt know anything about cotto, but i became a big fan of his from then on. His fights with judah and mosley just cemented that fact.
