    Hope you wished him a Happy Easter from all at ESB, oh and to his 'crime-fighting' partner Chopper too!

    Sadly ol Chop Chop didn't quite make it through to Easter - something about a bust!

    Suggestion:

    Just highlight the text in his 'good wishes' PM, right click the mouse and select 'copy'.

    Then once you've created somewhere to post it, put the curser (that's the pointer do dad the mouse drives) in the correct spot, right click again and select 'paste'.

    Not quite copybook, but close enough for rock 'n' roll.

    I was thinking to myself, how could I not know about that fight. I must have killed too many brain cells last night to have believe that. :nut

    Final conclusive proof that he is a low piece of ****.

    How many punches to the head do you have to take Ty before you realise its not them, its you.

    You gonna blame this one on Haris & co?

    Was fortunate to spend some time with Calvin Grove in Melbourne before the first bout with Lester Ellis. One cool bloke he was. Loved being in Melbourne and always remained sharing of his time for all the pests (me) who wanted to have a chat.

    Great fighter.

    Definately mate. He'd trod the boards and been through the ringer by that stage. Polite, humble and smart.. Never bragged about icing Fenech, but it was clear he enjoyed it. Courageously he faced up to a fierce Tszyu also..

    Very good memories.
