    Remember when Dean won Commonwealth title. Didn't he convert his house into a gym?

    Gary ''Tornado'' Thornhill

    Age 42

    Liverpool

    Featherweight/Super

    Status:British Featherweight Champion, WBO Intercontinental Super Featherweight Champion.


    won 24 (12 ko) lost 5 drawn 1

    Best Win: Richie Wenton for Name, Pithie was touted back then and it was a shock if i remember when he stopped him.

    Significant Losses: Jus tin Juuko,Michael Gomez,Scott Harrison,Nicky Cook

    Lost to good level fighters. Remember when Scott Harrison beat him to body and took him out.

    He beat Richie Wenton and Pithie and upset applecart a few times. Entertaining fighter and when Harrison done him it pushed Scot to next level and sadly Gary ended up going backwards in end.

    Town: Coventry
    Record: 20 Wins (14 Ko) 5 Losses

    Status: International Boxing Organization Inter-Continental featherweight Champion

    Best Wins:Roy Rutherford

    Significant Losses: Junior Jones,

    Best fight: His Loss To Junior Jones. My oh my was he close to pulling off a huge shock. Wasn't prime Jones but he was still decent and Richard was doing so..so well and it fell apart in round 11 sadly. His career slid down after that.

    Strengths: Punch Power, Hooks and Right Hand were class when landed well.

    Weaknesses: Durability, Inconsistency

    If someone has the Junior Jones fight please upload it if you can. It was on undercard of a major show and can remember willing him on and then him unraveling late on.
