What is the latest with former WBC jr welter champ Saoul Mamby??? He was very good. Was he born in Jamaica or is he from the US???

I thought he was Jamaican...If so, he was the first world champion from that nation and not Mike McCallum.

I to heard a rumour that he fought a few months ago.

Also didn't Mamby fight about a year ago (Canada?), but at the last moment the fight was changed to an exhibition?

Saoul Mamby reportedly won a six-round junior middleweight bout from Thandluang Sitjanaat (11-1) in Tattaya, Thailand a few weeks ago
