My goodness this is shocking, time is moving way too fast. I remember when I was a kid and Foster was champ, my Mum spoke in awe of Bob Foster, he was one of her favourites... RIP Champ.
People always say he fought in a weak era and he did. But it was a weak era awash with absolutely elite chins. And he cracked them. Foster was one of those freaky punchers. I love watching him bringing the dark. He left behind gifts that will be watched still when every single one of us is dust.
One of the more intimidating presences in LHW history. Aren't many left from that era now, are there?
