The promoter of the bout was Australia's leading biographer and former Fenech cornerman, Grantlee Kieza. I cover the Johnstone-Roberts bout in my new book, "The Brawl at the Sydney Opera House (And Other Aussie Boxing Yarns)".

It's actually quite extraordinary the lengths boxers will go to just to avoid Opetaia. At the same time, they say he's very beatable. Cool story, bro. Prove it.
what Canelo was for Benavidez, Benavidez is to Jai. Sometimes you're the hunter, sometimes you're the prey. Sometimes you're avoided, sometimes you do the avoiding. That's #boxing...

Aussie boxing didnโ€™t vanish in the โ€™70s and โ€™80s โ€” it just slipped from view. From the chaotic Opera House brawl to Barry Michael and Frank Ropisโ€™s Ash Wednesday scorcher, this volume brings the grit, humour and unforgettable rivalries back to life. ๐Ÿ›’๐Ÿ“• tinyurl.com/yc8n8smc
