      Tyson vs Spinks

      I was only a young lad, but that bout got me interested in Tyson.

            Dad watched boxing so I would too. First time I really got excited about it was watching Naz fight.

              Same here. I was a kid, 10 years. That experience was unforgettable. I was hooked instantly. Immidiately watched the Bruno fight. Douglas fight was not broadcast in my country, unfortunately.

              Then I went on a "sabbatical" from boxing due to various reasons. My flame was rekindled by the Klitschko brothers.

                    I was 12 years old and somebody stole my bike, I went to the police department to report it and I found out one of the cops there trained fighters. I wanted to learn to fight so if I ever found the guys who stole my bike I would kick their ass. And the rest is history......

                      After Tyson's reign I was hooked on watching Roy Jones and Prince Hamed on HBO.
