old copy of boxing news wanted

hi anybody got a copy of the boxing news july 25th 1986 to sell me ? i want to get a copy for my pal as his grandad is in it,thanx

 

Clutching at straws with that aren't you pal??? Might be better off contacting the publishers of Boxingnews I think its newsquest.

 

I think you would be surprised Put Em Up wouldnt be surprised if somebody would able to help you here possibly try the classic forum as well mate.

 

Kosaros is your man.

 

Really??? I thought the odds of anyone saving a copy from that far back, and being a visitor to this forum, would be as rare as a Joe Calzaghe Knockout. I guess you learn something new everyday.

 

If nobody has one on here, then you can buy the full 1986 Boxing News set from here:

I will take a look.

 

I might have it. I'll go and have a look to see if I can dig it out and post back on here if I've found it

 

Yes I have it. How much are you prepared to offer me bearing in mind it would lead to a gap in my collection?

Front cover is Frank Bruno getting stopped by Tim Witherspoon in Bruno's first world title fight

 

what you asking for it bruv ?

 

Who's your pal Grandad mate?

 

:think

 

my mates grandad was bob fielding,the former welsh flyweight champion and held the great benny lynch to a draw and fought jackie brown another world champion. apparently their was a write up on bob all about his career etc. in that edition of the boxing news,it doesnt matter if its a photocopy as that will do rather than someone breking up their collection,can anyone look if hes in their,thanx mate.

 

From Wrexham? Theres an old fight poster of his hanging up in my local.

 

I'll have a look to see if he's in there and get back
