Hi Kyle, was delighted to see you covering MSM as a few weeks ago I did a run through of all the classic LHW fights from the late 70s and early 80s, with MSM vs Johnson being the first fight I watched and defo being the best of the lot imo. After listening to this I found the partial video of the MSM vs EMM fight on YouTube and saw your comments on the video - you were arguing with some muppet who said that MSM had a glass chin and another who said he was an arm puncher π. Anyways, keep up the good work and hope youβre feeing better and enjoying the sun!

Thanks for the episode. Good luck getting your mystery illness sorted out! I had a trapped nerve last year and I was amazed how badly it fucked me over and how little the doctors could do for me. After a lot of physio and rehab exercises it eventually got better. All that to say, it can be a long journey to recovery so donβt despair π
