And now, we look back on the magnitude of that opening round on a special \"Fight Freaks Unite Podcast!\" Host T.J. Rives is back with insider Dan Rafael and these segments you'll hear are from a full/longer conversation that they had with legendary HBO Sports play by play announcer Barry Tompkins and fellow legendary analyst Al Bernstein, who did the live closed circuit broadcast that night. While those guys were on seperate calls of the fight, they have great memories about the build up and the EPIC opening round. Re-live the nostalgia of one of the great nights in boxing history that was summed up, spontaneously by Tomkins with \"This is still the first round!\" as they recount it with us!
