I would like to know what is the final career record of Aussie heavyweight Bill Squires who fought Tommy Burns three times for Burns' title, please.

I believe he is most remembered for the hit song "Stroke Me".

Can you please tell me what's the point what is Bill Squires' boxing career record entirely who is a Aussie Heavyweight of the 1900s? Please just tell me that's all no other subjects just this question I'm asking for, please.

Well, he made a comeback against light-welterweight Eddie Cool, in Atlantic City, March 4, 1929.
Out of shape and rusty, he was stopped in two rounds.

Believe it or not I think I can find the answer to this one

Really Wouter, can you tell me right now about the 1900s Aussie Heavyweight Contender Bill Squires, please?

I'm sorry, I thought you asked how tall Squires was in height.

kovit · Post by **kovit** » 11 Mar 2004, 23:47

Wouter, I already saw Bill Squires' height in his record and I knew how tall he was standing, he's 5'10 1/2" or 5'11". I came to record queries just for the record of the Aussie fighter who fought Burns for his heavyweight title 3 times. I have a video in Thailand that I kept that Squires had a record of 37 wins with 37 knockouts prior to his first fight with Tommy Burns. I just wanted to know what was his total career record of Aussie Heavyweight Bill Squires? Please, help me I'm begging you.

Where's Silkov when you need him?

Kovit, please!
I have 10 Editions of The Ring Record Book Encylopedias, but Bill Squires record is not listed in any of them.
I have 1000 boxing magazines to look about for an article on Bill Squires, if it's there.

Why don't you simply call GrahamD, our Australian Editor?
He could probably guide you trough with you query.

With your skill you should be able to find his connection.
We are human beeings, not Gods!

Who are you?

Kovit, look for the book "Boxing Day" by Jeff Wells, it's got plenty on Bill Squires
