1986.
Remember watching Tyson, Duran back then.
Started a boxing fight club in school, got shut down by the dinner ladies though.

About 95. Hard to say a particular fight as I grew up with parents who followed the sport, Hamed was the fighter who I first remember catching my attention, the first huge fight I recall was Tyson-Bruno II, my dad supported Tyson but everyone else wanted Bruno to win.

Since diapers I was hooked. My Dad was a hardcore fan with subscriptions to RING and KO magazine. I grew up watching it and liked it from day 1 as long as I can remember. While other kids looked forward to Saturday morning cartoons I was looking forward to the nights fights. I got a pass to stay up until the events were over too. Watching prime Roy and Floyd live was something else.

2003 for me. The fight was Alex Arthur vs Michael Gomez, for any Brits on here. A hell of a fight (won 2003 British fight of the year) which had everything. The undefeated prospect vs the grizzled warrior thought to be past his best, boxer vs puncher, Scotland vs England - and there was loads of bad blood before the fight.
It was enthralling & I've been hooked since

1990 is the first fight I remember Chávez v Taylor I was 6 at the time.
