  1. Did I just hear Aussie Joe Bugner is about to make a comeback at 63?

    Doesn't need a licence to contest Corp bout in Qld.
    He's not on Gold Coast Turf Club corporate show.

    Wouldn't like to get hit by big Joe just quietly. Even if he is in his 60s.

    In today's Gold Coast Bulletin hard print:-

    “Aussie Joe” Bugner, who has lived on the Gold Coast for the past 20 years, has shocked boxing circles by announcing he's coming out of retirement.

    Just don't ask when.

    The Hungarian-born boxer wants to release details of his comeback at a lavish press conference on Saturday at Q1 in Surfers Paradise

    It is believed a cashed-up local business is bankrolling his return.

    Maybe Wlad hasn't paid his IBO fees and the IBO HW title has become vacant. Greeny will attempt to win his 5th world title in 4 different weight divisions. He hasn't fought since 1999 but has a positive record in his last 6 fights(winning all 6)and would have enough carry over points to contest the vacant title. GO GREENY:ldevil:ldevil:ldevil:ldevil
     
  12. So there is something to this then. Crazy **** at 63 :patsch
