    One thing about Jim Watt he had a good chin 🤜. That punch Arguello nailed him with put many people away.
    Watt lost his tittle to a all time Latin legend here but he went out like a champion did Watt and stayed the full 15 rounds 🥊.
    Good fight for Jim Watt to bow out to 👍🥊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

      Watt was definitely very sturdy and durable, in the chin, jaw, and skull department. He Did get cut up quite easily though. Although he was periodically nailed pretty good by Arguello, Watt also made him miss quite a bit, with Arguello's various punches, especially the booming right hand/money punch that Arguello possesed. Alot of missing and grazing punches from Arguello. Watt took the flush landing punches like an iron jawed warrior. He gave a game and valiant effort but I think it was simply a matter of a Strong Tough guy fighting a Stronger Tougher opponent, who also punched with nearly twice the force.

    I was a kid watching this I remember Watt was supposed to lose to Howard Davis and he prevailed. Sean O'Grady was also supposed to beat him and didn't....Arguello had slashing punches which caused cuts and Jim had facial skin which cut easy,but he bravely lasted 15 rounds....4 title defenses very respectable

    Great sportsmanship at the end, and throughout! Watt was never going to set the world on fire with his style but he did defend the world title successfully three times (albeit in a poor lightweight era). Went on to have a successful boxing commentating career after with Reg Gutteridge at ITV too, kept his money and his marbles intact, well earned in the toughest sport!

      Unfair to say Jim Watt made his defences in a poor Lightweight era. The man was a world champion and fought the best of his era. Jim had a total of six world-title fights, which includes winning one world title and four successful title defenses. He won five of these fights and lost this one of course to Arguello.

    I remember this fight clearly …Jim Watt a highly intelligent fighter and a late developer had his work cut out because Arguello was such a big fighter…..the other thing l remember reading about was Jim’s training camp was orthodox and he sparred about 100 rounds before this fight but Arguello sparred less than 10 rounds but but but. Alexis had done hundreds of rounds on hand pads which were a new and novel thing back in the late 1970s….the pads had got him razor sharp and ready without any pain and the sparring Arguello did was just to get him in the mood …..Arguello was a great but Aeron Pryor beat him and he was only smallish at light welter but seem to think he may of had some chemical help ….might of remembered that bit wrongly …

      @@wudycarreno5315 Me dices que Arguello no fue virtuoso de la tecnica. Pero que estas diciendo. Arguello tenía todos los golpes y los hacia con sincronización y potencia para acompañarlos. Era un gran pegador al cuerpo con un excelente sentido de la distancia. No tenia tan buena defensa entonces podría ser golpeado. Su juego de piernas parecía un poco lento, pero creo que peleó como Joe Louis al tratar de atraer a sus oponentes a su rango de golpes en lugar de perseguirlos. Contra Ramirez fue una pelea de 10 rounds, y Arguello le ofrecio la revancha pero Ramirez no pudo con Mancini. Ademas si hubiera sido de 15 rounds en donde se sabe que Arguello da su mejor desempeño hubiera sido diferente. Pryor agarro a Arguello a final de su carrera. Ademas fue en 140 el peor peso de Arguello, mientras que Pryor estaba en su mejor apogeo y en su mejor peso. Esas cosas tu no lo tomas en cuenta. Ademas de eso, Pryor quedo totalmente destruido despues de esa pelea y unos años despues fue noqueado por un don nadie. Por ultimo, la revista The Ring lo nombro como el mejor super pluma de TODOS LOS TIEMPOS, entonces lo que tu dices que Arguello solo fue bueno es incorrecto, Arguello es uno de los mejores de la historia del boxeo.

      Watt was no stiff. He was a better than average fighter, a champion when the word meant something, and had a very good chin. He was not even close to being a bum.

    Jim Watt only beat O'Grady by dint of a dirty head-butt. He deserved to lose to the superior boxer Arguello. Time to hang up the gloves, Jim.

      His commentating at times is questionable - Benn v McClellan comments at the end dissing McClellan when the guy was having a major brain bleed, and also dismissing Pacquiao after the first Morales fight saying 'we've seen his best' referring to his win in the Barrera fight, as though it was a fluke and that was as far as Manny would go. Manny reached heights well above that after his first loss to Morales.
