      Was watching with my father since I was five - still remember Wide World of Sports on ABC - every top fighter could be seen on there!

      But the moment that will remain forever etched in my mind, the moment that turned me from hardcore fan to hardcore FANATIC, was watching Azumah Nelson put on a masterful display of boxing in his rematch against Jeff Fenech in 1991. Got me hooked...

          Went to the first fight I ever saw as a five year old.

          Was Lennox Lewis vs Frank Bruno in Cardiff Arms Park.

          Bruno was my friends uncle so he invited me along, got to go backstage and was sat at ringside, second row back.

          Ever since I have watched any and all boxing I have been able to.

          What can I say, I'm hooked.

                Following the big fights since I was 12 (almost 9 years ago) and saw DLH-Trinidad. Just when I turned 17 (almost 4 years ago), I started watching more fights, reading more about boxing, and checking news every day on the Internet.

                  LOL, nice.

                  I've been around boxing my whole life. I became a hardcore fan at age 11, when I first watched Trinidad-Vargas. So about 7 years.
