    Essentially the best broadcasts having the most of both quality and relevance from top to bottom.

    I'll never forget that card, because I was literally the only one on the forum who predicted Spinks would upset Mayorga.

    It's not a card in the traditional sense, as in they weren't all in the same place, but I seem to remember there was a UK bill in the 90s that had Benn-Collins, Naz and another big name (might have been Winky Wright as he was fighting in the UK a fair bit at the time), before it switched to the US for the Tyson-Holyfield main event.

    I remember the Tua-Lewis undercard herting a lot of hype with ClayBey -Etienne, Molina-Tackie and Leija-Robinson.

    Looking back, this is not really an impressive lineup but a step up from the usual crap promoters stack their undercards with

    Don King had a lot of good undercards. Unfortunately it often came at the expense of the fighters he was ripping off.

    The best cards were probably when Tyson was locked up, but he had some good ones in his last couple fights in 91’. On the Tyson-Ruddock 1 undercard, we got a WW unification between Simon Brown and Maurice Blocker. We also had JCC, considered to be the best P4P fighter at the time, in a title fight against an overmatched opponent.

    On the Tyson-Ruddock 2 undercard, we got two HOFers in Jeff Fenech and Azumah Nelson going at it the first time.

    I think on TV they also had Victor Galindez against Marvin Johnson live from New Orleans on the same night as well.
