Yeah I ain’t realize how close the dates were between the 2 fights, no chance that would happen nowadays
Imo 2nd fight ain’t seem close, Duran was catching power punches left and right; was visibly woosy in them middle rounds

No more PAWGs, PLEASE??!!!??
I remember this fight. Back in the day us UK brehs hated Bruno but loved Lewis. UK cacs loved Bruno and hated Lewis.
There were reasons why. But I will use that as a random thought for another day.
Paul looks in good spirits, glad to see this.I wanted to box just like the Punisher when I was a young man.
Uncle Tom etc

What's Tim Bradley beef with Haney 
He was going in unreasonably about the lawsuit. Bringing up irrelevant shyt like Haney going to private school and all
It's unprecedented move for a boxer to sue over a failed drug test but how is Haney the bad guy in this. Just because x amount of boxers beat dudes who were on PEDs doesn't mean that's an acceptable standard (he bought up DLH vs Vargas and some other cases)
