Legendary Nights

But as a two-time welterweight champ, one-time unified, no matter how you slice it, dice it, that's all he is.

And then, again, a Rummy's Corner-type content creator, a Legendary Nights-type documentary, he was supposed to beat Pacquiao.

And he didn't.

I mean, he got dropped.

And they met in Las Vegas the following February for a rematch that ended in a draw.

And then Tiger knocked him out in their third meeting in one of the greatest trilogies in boxing history and are quite certainly going to be one of our future Legendary Nights episodes.

Oh, absolutely.

It will be.

It's Jamie Moore versus Matthew Macklin, season one of Legendary Night.

In our very early days of doing Legendary Nights, A small hall classic.

And when I look back on this... feel like it should have been on such a bigger stage and I think if boxing was where it is now then this would have been one of those fights that probably would have ended up being at the O2 as a headliner but instead it was for the British super welterweight title on September the 29th 2006 at the George Cannell Leisure Centre in Manchester and that's just a little box standard leisure centre here in Manchester it's nothing special whatsoever but this original fight took place on that night and I don't think anybody expected that they were going to see an absolute corker of a fight.

Now, it ended when Jamie Moore knocked out Macklin in the 10th round.

Now, there were discussions for a rematch in another larger venue, but it just never materialised.

Yeah, it's a shame because, I mean, Legendary Nights is going to be a lot of these fights.

These are the fights we like.

So, you know, if there wasn't a rematch, we generally would have wondered why.

This was their first fight.

We did do a Legendary Nights on this one as well, early doors.

Uh, this fight took place on June 22nd, 1991 at Earls Court Exhibition Hall in Kensington, London.

The promoter was, for the first time in this list, Barry Hearn.

But Watson was not expected to win.

He's a complete underdog.

Well, we've done a Legendary Nights on it, but we will do a synopsis on the fight now just to remind you guys of it.

And if you haven't heard that from, like Johnson said, one of the very early ones from Season 1 of Legendary Nights, please do go back and listen to it.

...

I wish HBO still did that Legendary Nights series.

You can find most of them on YouTube.

Legendary Nights, Tyson Lewis, Bowe-Golota, fucking Bowe-Holyfield, the Fan-Man fight.

They were all great specials.
