He is seen in many boxing events. He is still in great shape. I am not sure about his profession. At least some time ago he helped kids with problems.

I really don´t understand why Jukka says the win over Jackson was the best one. Makes no sense. He has several quality wins from those same years. The guy with a 6-6 record he beat twice. He also beat 11-12-1 slugger t a 8-round decision. He also knocked out a load of debutants. Jukka was the man. I think Järvinen is still the best heavyweight in Finland. He would outbox Markkanen, outslug Helenius and outsmart Elovaara. Halme he already beat. Kihlström would of been done in 1 round with Jukka. Boogie Mustonen wouldn´t even have dared to fight Järvinen. Against Haapoja Jukka would prevail by physical strength. Kemiläinen vs. Järvinen would be a war, but I doubt Umar will fight Jukka, since Jukka might be in a better shape than him right now. Grönfors...somebody told me he ducked Järvinen all the time...

Jukka jÄrvinen, come back!

The heavyweight division needs you...

JÄrvinen still has a great 23-7 record...

Ebu-eu title is a possibility!

I´m predicting an eliminator tournament for the Finnish Heavyweight title mandatory spot.

The tournament could include Järvinen, Allan Grönfors, Boogie Mustonen and Umar Kemiläinen. The winner would be awarded with a shot at the title. Then the winner of that title bout would be ranked on EU list. I truly hope this happens. It´s time to see some heavyweight excitement in Finland and Europe!

Nice old thread
