I just wanted to gather today to discuss your favourite sporting moments. They can be as obvious or as obscure as you like. With pictures/video or without. Do they hold a special place in your heart from a reason?
I'll start off with one from 20 years ago... to the day.
Bruno rocks Tyson before losing, February 25th 1989
It's probably my first sporting memory. I was six years old and being the youngest of four boys, I watched what they watched and we've always been a boxing-mad family.
3' 40" into the video below you'll see why it's one of my favourite sporting moments. Tyson was a year away from losing to Buster Douglas and was unstoppable. But Bruno rocked him. I know it's only a 'rock' but I remember the roof coming off in the Russell house-hold.
Great memories and I ain't embarrassed in the slightest to say I was/am a huge Frank Bruno fan. I know he wasn't the greatest boxer in the world (though his jab was a joy to behold) but he suffered in and out of the ring and has a place in the Russell's hearts.
