    Apparently it was supposed to be filmed buy something went wrong. There's a poster on ESB who's Rudkin's son, and he's done in detail about this one. Essentially, Olivares absolutely destroyed him. Look for AlFrancis if you want details on it.

    I think Al has looked for it for years without joy, been a long time since I've spoken to him though. Great bloke. What George said rings a bell though. Scartissue will probably know if you can't get hold of Al.

    I remember talking to Frank Baltazar Sr on ESB years back, he was ringside that night I believe. Al told me a few years back that after the fight, there was a power cut/lights out in the dressing room and Alan Sr said '' That's the second time that this has happened to me tonight''.

    AlFrancis had some great stories to tell, and always gives great takes. I would love to see him here.
