Those two fights with Colin Jones started my love of boxing, wouldn't it have been great to have seen CJ in with Duran.

Remember this fight, he was tremendous that night, he was great against Colin Jones particularly in that 2nd bout, Colin waited and waited, he knew his chance would come and it did twice in the same round in both fights, I convinced myself that Colin was gonna lose that 2nd fight, as Kirkland boxed superbly, then he detonated his left hook and the fight was over.
Great days those boxing yrs were, probably not has corrupt has todays boxing is, but there were some legendary bouts.

RIP Kirkland Laing another superbly talented boxer taken far to young at a mere 66.

Sad news.

Those two Colin Jones fights were major evens in my youth.

It may be a case that we had better nostalgia in the past, but to me it was a golden age of boxing, globally and in Britain.
