It was his first NHL fight ever, only 19 years old and he still fed Tiger as the fight went on. Williams did well at the start but Wilson is a lot better fighter than him.

Funny seeing Sittler standing there talking shit to Wilson.

Good bar trivia---Wilson was the only player that Mike Bossy ever duked it out with in his career

I did not know that. Interesting and kind of crazy as a lot of people consider Wilson to be a top 3 fighter all-time. Bossy must've had some big boy pants on that game. I'm going to go watch the video of it now. I'm guessing Gillies and Nystrom weren't on the ice.
