Saw this and wanted to see if anyone could verify it - there's an actor saying he was an ABA Champion in his youth but I can't see his name anywhere on their site or on Wikipedia. It's a pretty bold claim and he's going to play a boxer in an upcoming film so I hope its true! It's this chap called Mark Harris: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3868342 http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3868342/bio "Training in his local gym Fitzroy Lodge from the age of seven, he went on to win the ABA Championships in his early teens, becoming a local hero in the process." http://m.screendaily.com/5109976.article "Mark has a boxing background – he was ABA Champion at the Fitzroy Lodge – and that will add a layer of authenticity.” http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/414730/Maddie-movie-outrage "Mr Harris, a successful amateur boxer..." I've never seen his name on any winners lists but I could be mistaken... Is he a former champion? Or telling porkies?
