Wish I could find more fights from this guy....He was a joy to watch and a fantastically exciting fighter. Heres his war with Roy Gumbs and HL from his fight with Errol Christie.....Well worth the time if you havent seen them before or just wanna watch them again.

There was 3 Kaylor DVDs up on WBVA a few months back, I think they each had 2 or 3 fights on. Do you remember that "East End Boxers" documentary he was in towards the end of his career?
Yeah I downloaded the first 2 of them mate :good.......forgot about the last one... Seems the last disc are the ones from the end of his career.....all losing efforts against Herol Graham, Tom Collins and James Cook (last fight)...any of those any good? I'll grab that anyway. Definitely wanna see more of his early eighties fights though. Havent heard of that doc

Going from memory the Graham fight was a decent fight but the class told pretty quickly, the Collins fight was a heavy KO loss to a heavier man (and Collins could punch!!). I can't recall the Cook fight, sorry I have the docu on VHS, i'll give you a shout if I ever get around to getting it to hard disk, its pretty good.
Kaylor was always a great fighter to watch. In the Errol Christie fight there was a lot of needle because at the the prefight press conference they went for each other and traded blows.
I always liked the bill when Lawless was on the verge of topping himself after both his money makers lost on the same bill to American Journeymen Buster Drayton (Kaylor) and Bonecrusher (Bomber Bruno). Kaylor was a fine European level fighter. The victory over Errol was sweet, but he was really outclassed by Graham and the brutal knock out loss to Tom Collins should of finished him. Kudos to the man's ticker, Kaylor finished his career as a pioneer of the new Super Middleweight division in Europe losing to Galvano by a point or two in Italy. I sadly saw his final fight in person, as he had the misfortune of meeting James Cook in prime form.
