The Anthony Hembrick - Booker T Word debacle

[RawHawg]

I have heard this fight mentioned here in the past, but no one could find Hembrick's elaborate pre-fight dance routine. This clip shows it, as well as Booker's destruction of the Olympian Hembrick. This is one of my favorite old memories of Tuesday Night Fights. It happened on a military base which made the huge underdog upset even more dramatic.

Good chuckle to be had after Hembrick was knocked down the first time, about to get smashed down again, and talking to the ref:

Ref - "How do you feel?"

Anthony - "I feel like a champ!"

I actually saw this fight live....one of my favorite moments in boxing!

Wow, the ref was awful. He was done after the 1st knockdown.
