The guy who beat Foster's son Tony was Swedish two-time European Champion Anders Eklund.
Frank Bruno and Francesco Damiani took him out of the business.

That's right, Tony Foster, Albaquerqe, NM. Daddy Bob brought him to Denmark.

Bob Hazelton was Bob Fosters last oppomemt, I remember reading an interview with him about ten years ago, he had sadly lost both (I think) his legs due to steriod abuse and said doctors didn't think he would live any more than 10/15 years.

I belive he went around schools giving lectures on the dangers of drug abuse.

Has anyone got anymore information on this? Is he still alive?

I don't know. Is it wrong to thank someone if they aren't?

Of course not. I was merely asking a question.
