I was actually there live (fought ontheundercard) for the first Bowe-Holyfield fight in Las Vegas...GREAT heavyweight fight. The crowd ws so crazy...it was like a fight in roman gladiator times with the crowd cheering for the impending brutalization of one of these guys.
Mayweather Spadaforda was impressive. Mayweather obviously had some training goals in mind...allowing himself to be backed into the ropes and corner several times and trying to work his way out of it but still....Noone taken it to Mayweather this hard in a very long time. Props to spadaforda.
I remember hearing about that sparring session the day after it happened..there was a pro show ast Foxwoods and one of the trainers who was there that day flew in for the Foxwoods show....he was telling us how the night before Spadafora really put it on Mayweather in the gym, many didn't believe it but everybody wanted to see it.
