          It was Hagler/SRL for me. also watching Tyson got me hooked, for some reason i always wanted to see him lose. I guess i've always liked the underdog

              Back in 1988 my best friends sister was the hottest ****ing chick you have ever seen, we were at a fair and Orlando Canizales was their...my friends sister was 19 and the object of every mans affection...

              Orlando flashed her a smile and took her out by a bunch of sana cans and ****ed the **** out of her...from that point on I knew boxers were the biggest studs on the planet, not just anybody was gonna just **** ths **** out of my best friends sister back in 88...ORlando CAnizales wasnt just anybody though he was a prize fighter and I was now hooked!

                well to be honest the fight that early Vargas fights and Toney vs Adolpho Washinton cause toney was in great shape and thats how i wanted to look plus something about the way toney spoke and he was sure about himself which made me like watching him

                But what really made me go to the gym and started training was Toney vs. Jirov after i saw the fight in Toneys eyes man i was like damn i wanna do that i wanna have come to see me i wanna be there when the boos turn to applauds

                The fight that kept me going was the Courtney Burton Vs Ebo Elder right damn that was good fight if those guys were bigger names it would of went down as a fight of the year.......damn shame how even if Courtney Burton would of made it to the score cards he still would of lost

                    it wasnt really the fight that got me interested in boxing but it was the first boxing fight i have ever seen: Muhammad Ali vs Larry Holmes (even for a non-boxing fan, it was hard to watch).

                    but the fight that got me into boxing was Muhammad Ali vs Sonny Liston 1. during that fight, i started shadowboxing, bobbing & weaving, snapping my jab, etc.

                    been into it ever since.
