Hi all. I posted this in "British Forum" best but maybe it's better here.... I am looking for anyone who has any footage of Brian London fights that they could provide on DVD (preferably at least 3 or 4 fights and in good quality). The footage wil act as a backdrop to an event that is planned for Blackpool in June to recognise Brian's career. More details about the event to follow shortly. Please let me know if you have any such footage and whether you would be happy to provide a DVD containing it. While I can't offer any monetary compensation I can arrange for Brian to send an autographed photo to anyone who can help. Please message me here or PM me with any queries. Any help greatly appreciated. Cheers! :thumbsup

Shame.
London was a competent fighter. Not world class, but still. Very good boxer, and considering how badly he was out of his depth, gave Floyd Patterson a good challenge.
Outside of the world champions brian London was no worse than most of the 1960s contenders. He beat rated fighters.
