What can you tell me about this guy's level of competition? http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=24129&cat=boxer
his comp was both journeymen and excellent, the guy fought 400 fights and EVERY TOP BRIT of note and Europeans too, from about LW to WW even MWs. Len Wickwar is an unsung great fighter.
Boon was one of the top dogs, could have won a world title in his own right! Boon finished at WW and won fight of the year in 1947 with Robert Villimain who gave LaMotta hell. Top man.
