Comments: Behind the play, Probert and McSorley push and shove each other until they finally decide to drop the gloves. They tie up with Probert throwing two body shots just before the two exchange a couple of rights. Probert continues to throw body shots and try and get his arm out of McSorley's grasp while McSorley returns fire with a right. The two grapple for a short while until Probert gets loose and just misses with an uppercut inside. Probert then throws an uppercut and right hand while McSorley fights to get his jersey down from over his head. McSorley's jersey comes off and he throws seven straight rights to the side of Probert's face and helmet. Probert throws three rights that are blocked before connecting with a long right hook. McSorley fires back with two rights and Probert throws another uppercut just before landing a big right that knocks McSorley down to his knees. McSorley pops back up and the two exchange multiple rights while they skate into the boards with McSorley switching to the left and Probert staying with the right. McSorley switches back to the right and the two stand back and go back and forth with numerous rights, each connecting with almost all of their punches until the linesmen see an opening and finally end this long, long fight. McSorley skates away with a cut over his left eye.

One of the best fights you'll ever see. 2 of the toughest fighters of all time going at it and Probert winning on points.

One of the best hockeyfights ever. I remember my girlfriend seeing the highlight of this fight on the news and saying it was sick that two people would beat on each other like that for so long...I thought it was geat! The coolest thing about this fight was the back and forth haymakers. They both told the refs to stay out of it - after the first minute! The mutual respect they showed at the end was because they had made a classic fight. Ah...the glory days!

the best fight i've ever seen. when you think of the great fighters of our time, you think of these two and they delivered with over 90 seconds of lefts and rights and blood and guts. one on one, you'll never get a better fight.

I understand a draw but it's EDGE/NARROw win for Probie in my book.
He lands more better.

Probert was the king along with Kocur at the time.....if only the two would have been cloned and brought back to hockeytown today, then noone would stand a chance against either one of these two; boogaard, brashear, gratton,larraque,or any other so called tough guy today would have to bow down to the bruise brothers, Kocur and Probert the fighting kings forever hands down!

best part is the end, where they show respect for each other, which is what hockey is all about. GREAT FIGHT.

Marty could take a shot! In the end he caught Probe with a few good punches. Great fight!!!! Classic!!!!

An absolutely classic fight. Probert showing why he was the enforcer for the Wings, and McSorely showing his stamina. Massively long, and hard-hitting fight.

GREAT FIGHT!!! When a fight is this great and this close--they otta bring the two of them to center ice at the end of the game, touch gloves, drop gloves and give all the fans an encore, say, with a 10 minute time limit!!! The hell with the " three stars selection."
