any questions for john conteh? im going to a sportsman dinner tommorow.

Does he regret not fighting Miguel Cuello?

Does he regret splitting with Mickey Duff?

What are his thoughts on the ridiculous plastic armour Mate Parlov had over his eyebrows?

What are his thoughts on the illegal Monsel's Solution, that Saad Muhammad's corner applied to Saad's cuts, that set like cement and saved his title?

What are his thought's on the unification fight with Galindez that never happened ?

Any comment on Mickey Duff's statement that Conteh was the most
naturally talented British fighter he ever worked with ?

Oh, and wish him well ,it is to my lasting regret, I never saw him fight in

the flesh, but his scraps with Ahumada,,Muhammad, Finnegan,

Burnett,Lopez,Hutchins ,etc. are great memories.
He was a real un.:good

 

Very good fighter,and if things had worked out differently,he would have been a GREAT fighter.
I'd ask him how long it took him to get over been ripped off by the judges in the Mate Parlov fight.

 

Seriously, if your brave enough, ask him about the rumour of ronnie corbett paying to break his hands after being caught banging ronnies bit on the side

I'd love to get to the bottom of this, been hearing it years from different people in different places:good

 

I'd like to know who his favorites are today, from the UK and on the world stage.

 

same.....I would like too....

 

Would you ask him?

 

- His quids worth on the current crop of light heavies and how he would have handled the likes of Dawson, Hopkins etc. Oh, and what he thinks of Tony Bellew....

- His opinion of his contemporaries back in the 70's: Lopez, Ahumada, Finnegan, Galindez, Kates, Burnett, Saad etc and if he would have liked Bob Foster to hang around a tad longer.

- The interview with Peter Cook and Dudley Moore on Parky.

:rofl

 

On the level! Ive heard this going back 20yrs now. Obviously ive heard it a load of times in Ireland as i live there, but i heard it in a conversation in work over in scotland about a year back plus 2 mates, who dont know each other, from Garston in Liverpool, have both told me they heard it too.

 

Ha ha ha ha! Im not sure i would. But seeing as hes supposed to be in this new tv show, it could be asked in a showbissy way i.e.

"Now your acting,John, whats your thoughts on the current crop of entertainers on BBC? Have they the passion of a Giulgud? The talent of an Olivier (larry not phillip), or the utter ruthlessness of a ronnie corbett?"


I will send you your grapes and lucozade when they eventually take the wire from your mouth

 

The story has been going since the 70's.

 

Would he have liked to have fought Marvin Johnson, Eddie Mustafa Muhammad, and Michael Spinks?

 

Ask him if Lamotta's daughter was a screamer.
