Keith Long

Did keith ever fight as ameteur ,can anyone tell me much about him?

 

I'm pretty sure he never fought as an amateur, he turned pro in his thirties I think.

 

thanks.

 

Decent, tough fighter- gr8 chin.... More brawler then boxer not particuarly high on abilty but made most of his assets.

 

Whatever happened to him? I cant remember the last day iv seen him fight..

There we go he finished 8-5-1 after starting 7-1-1

 

He was due to fight Skelton last Saturday before Matt pulled out.
Never had an amateur fight.
Record not as good as it could've been, probably couldve been fed fools and built up a little more than he was.
