"Well you didn`t get much change from Hagler"......brilliant🤣🤣🤣 - Hats off to Minter for being such a good sport!

[@donnrutherford7059]

Can't help cracking up at the absolute lunacy of it and greatest admiration for Spike being able to dream it all up.

I've been looking for this sketch on KZbin for ages & so glad I found it. I cracked up laughing when I 1st saw it & still do after all these years. How on earth Alan Minter didn't crack up laughing I'll never know !

[@mikehunt5892]

One of the hardest fights Alan ever had R.I.P Alan brilliant.

...and Monty Python were never shy about mentioning their debt to Milligan. In an interview, during the genesis of Monty Python's Flying Circus, they decided that they would play with the form of the traditional TV show; then they saw Milligan's "Q5" show and lamented that he'd beaten them to it. Spike Milligan and Monty Python, comedy giants!

Never seen this before. What a laugh, from beginning to end. Love this man's zany humour, and as a child appreciated the amusing things he got up to

Spike was a genius a word use too often but he was one in a trillion Who was your fave boxer ? Ghandi 😂😂😂

[@dafyddmanton2981]

As a Jehovah's Witness of 20 years or so, I love the idea of this sport. I am going to walk down to the bus station and see if they sell boxing gloves.

...Spike was an absolute fruit cake...his madness was the inspiration for many comedians, but behind it all was a quiet, thoughtful man whose insane view of comedy gave us much joy. Gods bless the Goons.

Alan Minter being a good sport in this sketch as he'd lost his world middleweight title to Marvin Hagler.

[@shaunsmith1825]

Subtitles on for extra level of bizzare. You're welcome 😀

[@simonatford1]

The rope was blessed by the Pope and the trainer kept crossing himself. Are they Roman Catholic Jehovah's Witnesses? RCJWs?

[@margin606]

So Milligan invented the 'Fred Gumby' character later utilised so frequently by Monty Python?
