    Great site, i've been there a few times, its got some great write-ups on some of his fights. I really like that era of Flys and Bantams, so many great fighters.
    Always great to see Newsboy Brown's name mentioned on these boards, the first thread i made on this site was posting this video Brown, it got no responses and next to no views lol. Great little video for anyone interested in this great fighter...

    I'm currently in touch with the son of Wee Willie Davies, who fought and beat Newsboy Brown in 1927. We've talked about what a great era of Flys and Banties that was. He's desperately searching for fight footage of his father.

    If anyone has any ideas please share. I'm not good at hunting down fight films!

    It is a beautifully balanced website, light but not a lot of hyperbole. Very good. Am I missing something or is this sadness I feel at not being further illuminated as to Brown-Wolgast doomed to permanence?
