In reply to Post #1334 Lovely to hear apart from that last sentence. Great boxer and such a shame that he’ll not be around any longer as I’m sure there’s plenty of young boxing buddies out there who learned so much from a legend. RIP Alan and condolences to all those sadly left behind.

Alan minter passed away today met him on a number of occasions and he always came to talk to me when we saw each other no matter who he was with , tough tough bloke who had a crap childhood , approved school etc , got absolutely destroyed by hagler,I was in the crowd that night total riot , I got bottled by some southern puff. R.I.P Alan.

Thank goodness the ref stopped in in the next fight as Chamberlain didn’t half land some powerful uppercuts.

In reply to Post #1331 I expected him going down in the later rounds. Proper tuff or the body shots did not have the impact they seemed to do

In reply to Post #1330
He did indeed took punishment front those body shots.
Did very well to finish as strong as he did.

In reply to Post #1329 Agree there mate, that’s why he is a champ
TBH I thought come 7 or 8 he would be struggling to keep the hands up, took some proper punishment to the body and just came back, proper tuff lad

What a great finish and showed why he’s a champ. Don’t know where the strength came from to even lift his hands let alone the speed he was throwing them.

In reply to Post #1327 Great fight Braders, both fighters were absolutely drained though. Massive

In reply to Post #1326 That ref was a joke,bloody good fight though
|

What a fight
Should have just worked the body all the way through for me. Tough lad the French lad, took some proper punishment to the body, thought he would have folded
Rematch, proper hard fight that
