The 'what fights did you watch today?' thread

I haven't had a girlfriend in many moons.

 

Boxing > girlfriends

 

In fact he even did win "Superstars" haha

 

Just come back from Thailand haven't you?

 

Yeah, that doesn't count And I asked most of them about Thai boxers

 

See me avatar Flea, we went and visited Johnny Famechon in Oz.

 

Wow! How is Fammo? Ace fighter :good The best French-Australian fighter of all time no doubt :yep

Same trip as when you met Paul Ferrari? Great trip that by the sounds of it, whereabouts were you in Oz?

 

Melbourne with Bobby Sinn. We spent a couple of days with Lionels wife and son Michael. A couple of days wth Robbie Peden and met up with a load of other fighters, Barry Michael, Ferreri, Graham Brook, Frank Ropis, Terry Grinsted, Henry Nissen and Lionels old trainer Jack Rennie. We all went to Kooyong where they fought and stood at Centre court where the ring was erected with Lionel's lad. Full on boxing and boozing week. Fammo was great, I gave him an old billposter from when he won the title from Legra and he signed me Famechon-Saldivar program, I've already got Saldivars signature in it. I asked him who was the best he fought and he said they were all good, when I pushed him hje sdaid Saldivar. All great fellas they were.

 

Lucky you, some serious week there:good

 

Did you ask Sinn about Carruthers?

What a great week Al :good

 

:good Cheers, one of the best weeks of my life.

1 - Johnson
2 - Johnson
3 - Charles
4 - Charles
5 - Johnson
6 - Johnson
7 - Charles
8 - Charles
9 - Charles
10 - 9-9 even (thought Johnson took the round but Ezzard scored a knockdown)

so 95-94 Charles w/KD.

Good fight, a few tough rounds to score though. Could swing the fight either way imo.

Also watched Mickey Ward - Emmanuel Burton which is a fun fight to watch. didn't score it though, just sat back and enjoyed.
