Question time..

Is the first guy Paul Ferreri?

 

Yeah, good get mate....the other two might test you more.

 

Im pretty sure I know the second one but I had to use boxrec, so i'll let somene else have a crack while I work on the third bloke.

 

....I'm sure most of us do.

 

Was Alan Aldenhoven number 2?, struggling with the third guy though and no amount of cheating is helping either.

 

Correct again Bentchassis!

Tried to grade the questions from relatively easy upward.

If you're old enough to have been around in the TV Ringside days - in this case in the early 70's - you'll definately know of this guy, even though he didn't win a national title.

Will give additional hints if it's not cracked within an hour or two.

 

I,ll have a guess at this.... Les Paynter

 

No, not Les M.R. - But the guy in question fought at least 2 guys that you also did.

 

How could I be so stupid.......Hillary

 

You got it!

 

Who is this?
When I first went to Queensland and was visting Hillary who at the time was training a young kid whose dad was a friend of mine.
This kid went on to win numerous titles including Comm+ Aust
what was his name?
He was about 13 or 14 at this time

 

Off the air for a while. But will pick it up later if nobody nails the answer in the mean time.

Just in case anybody isn't aware, the Hillary we're talking about is Hillary Connolly.

 

Wilf Gentzen

 

No not Wilf.
At the time a racehorse trainer was staying on Hillarys' property and after riding one of his horses work I urged this boxers Dad to buy it
This horse was never out of a place in a handful of runs and won its last start in NSW.
This racehorse connection decided the boxers proffesion.

 

I dunno. I'll Take another stab. The fighting Farrier.
