    Re: 1974 - Rumble in the Jungle

    Flashman great story!! My first trip to Negril was 1975 and much like you I stayed with the the Jackson family across from the church on the hill to Red Ground from town. I was also in Jamaica and Negril on November 25th 1980 the date of the Sugar Ray Leonard vs. Duran II. Although I didn't watch the fight I did listen to it on the radio drinking Red Stripes and Appleton. The same trip I saw Michael Manley at a rally in Negril the day before the 1980 election that he lost to Edward Seaga. Man great memories!!
