Want to Feel Old? on 00:34 - Mar 3 with 1382 views | SydneyRs | That was a great fight. McGuigan at his peak and Pedroza tough as nails. RIP. Found out afterwards that a mate of my Dad's had spare tickets and went by himself without having the decency to inform us of this fact! Have never forgiven him. | | | |

Couldn't hear Danny Boy or the ring announcements and the British Queen had never seen a night like it before or since. | | | |

I was on one of the 747s that were sent empty to Belfast and came back full of good natured Barry fans. Remember watching the fight later on TV truly great contest. | | | |
