    Hearns vs Duran. There was something magic about those early evening fights in the car park at caesars palace and the hilton, and the way Hearns blasted out Duran was absolutely sensational.

            true story....

            i grew up in rural america where i didnt even have cable as a kid... no hbo, no espn nothing... i read about it in the paper... missed the tyson days etc...

            i didnt start watching it until i was older... cant even remember what the first main fight i watched was... but i missed a ****load of fights (have since gone back and watched hundreds) but in all honesty i've only been a hardcore fan for maybe 3-4 yrs.... my first PPV that i bought/had in my own place was pac v morales III.... up until then my bro-in-law got all the fights.

            its weird cuz even my older siblings and parents dont really see why i watch it or what the big deal is, but its been my fave sport since, i watch it more regularly than i do football... and my team just won the ****in super bowl...

            but i guess its better late than never....

              Everyone will probably say "Dang" this dude is old, but for me it was my Dad.
              He would watch boxing every Sat. nite when fights were on tv from the Auditorio Olimpico in Mexico City. Mantequilla Napoles, Carlos Monzon, Ruben Olivares, Vicente Saldivar, Carlos Zarate and of course my all time favorite Salvador "Chava" Sanchez just to name a few. That my friends is a long time ago when most of you were still swimming in your daddy's nut sack (maybe).

                      Seeing Ali dodge Ernie Terrell's huge bombs with graceful movements of his head and body. No going back.
