What ever happened to...

It occurred to me when reading that Michael Marrone was fighting this month that some times boxers can fall completely off the radar. I remember seeing Marrone last year and thinking he looked quite good. But I didnt see his name on the bill anywhere nor could I find information on him to check what he was up to.

So, in this respect, I am starting a thread to find out 'what happened to' a number of boxers. Any information which anyone has would be much appreciated. Similar to a missing persons appeal!

I'll start, so either answer anyone's request or suggest a boxer you have lost track of;

Henry Akinwande - I know he only fought last year, but is he retired now or inactive?

 

He represented GB at Seoul in '88 so I'm guessing England

 

Johnny Armour

Remember watching him on early Hatton undercards and thinking he was alright and he had the best name around!

 

Didnt he train Vernon Forest?

 

As in Scott? Funny story, I spoke to him on the phone last month through a mutual friend but I was drunk as a mule! I told him to come out of retirement and fight Marquez. To which he said 'dont worry about that'. Found out since though that he's been in trouble with the law again!

 

Not officially I dont think, but as good as.

Shame, I was a big fan of his too!!

 

Lloyd Honeyghan does after dinner speaking (my guess is he bangs on about Curry for an hour). Also seen him doing some press work before the Hatton v PBF fight, but he definately wasnt cut out for that!

Other than that not sure about the rest.
