Actually, when I was about 12 I was training for amateur bouts, unfortunately I never got a chance to utilize my skills, but the Hearns-Hagler, Leonard-Hagler, Duran-Leonard fight got me into the sport. I was hooked after that.

Tyson vs. Spinks is the first fight I actually remember watching. I think I one a dollar in a playground bet. Didn't really get into boxing seriously until the late 90's.

Well for me, it was Prince Naseem Hamed going after some guy named Ingle. It was a pretty good fight, and afterwards, I really started watching the heavies go at it. Now Im hooked.

My parents used to run a bar and grill and I remember them getting Tyson fights in the late 80s,(88-89). But flipping through channels one night I watched the Hamed vs Kelly fight in 97 and was hooked ever since.
