Wow that is Cool Also!!!
I can remember that match-up!! my son was almost a yr old... I couldn't wait till he was Old enough to watch Boxing with me!!!
Boxer, born in Cuthbert, GA. He beat Ken Norton for the World Boxing Council heavyweight title in 1978, gave it up in 1984, was named International Boxing Federation champion that year, and held the title until 1985, when he finally lost to Michael Spinks in his 49th contest, just one short of Rocky Marciano's record. He lost the return contest with Spinks, and in 1988 challenged Mike Tyson for the title, but was defeated in four rounds. He retired after winning 48 of his 51 contests, 34 by a knockout, then launched a comeback in 1991.
I cannot recall how many rounds it went.. but it was a good fight... the rematch wasn't nothing to the first one...
