Question..Brendan Ingle story concerning Naz

A story the fantastic brendan Ingle tells about Naz is how he first came across him.

You`ve heard it, Naz getting picked on by four or five kids when he was a little kid and fighting them all, untill Ingle scared them away and invited Naz to his gym because he saw something in him.

Excellent story no doubt, but Naz I recall now denies the story.

The same story was written about 50yrs earlier, almost identical.

But who knows who the original boxer was??

He was one of the best ever European boxers.

Georges "The Orcid Man" Carpentier?

Correct

Ingle once said that Naz would also be a multi weight champion..just like Georges was, obviously Brendan was a big fan.
