Does anyone know how good they were at boxing??
I was watching a programme the other night about Patsy Kensit, and it seems her father was also a boxer called Jimmy Kensit, however i can only find a career record of a 'Young Kensit' from the same area Bethnal Green so im guessing this is her dad.

fought 3 times and only won once.
At this period of time in London we know it was full of these villians but also part from the 4 mentioned above who else that was associated with these men also sboxed at professional.

Re: The Kray brothers
Reggie put out a book called something like "Villains We Have Known". Lots of ex-pros in there.

I was about 8 or so. Never really enjoyed it, have not seen it since.
The video did have a bit of them boxing and them match making if I
recall correctly...

Reggie and Ronnie were pretty hopeless in the ring; Charlie was better than both of them put together.

Re: The Kray brothers
Reg Gutteridge said the Krays couldn't box paper bags! I think there ability to box was way exaggerated. They were just villains, nothing more, nothing less!bennie wrote:Reggie and Ronnie were pretty hopeless in the ring; Charlie was better than both of them put together.
