Have you ever bumped into a boxer randomly?

[DEKKER87]

in tenerife about 15 years ago met some bird who was cryin her eyes out as me and the missus walked back to the hotel...asked her what the problem was and she said her fella had argued with her and stormed off and left her on her own....this was about 4am so i thought that was a bit out of order and told her so and said i'd let her fella know too....was walkin her back to her hotel and it transpired that her boyfriend was Henry Wharton....



i didnt hang around.

[hurlock]

do people understand this question properly????

it say's randomly :!:

not going into the gym they effing train :!: or at a boxing show of there promoter's :!: . it's thing's like quing up in a brothel & being told your next in line & fraudley comes out the door or being in lidl & seeing frankie gavin who tell's you that the wash & go you bought is actually two for one not realising it's two in one
or going in a drive through macdonald's in cardiff & asking for a big mac & gaving rees takes your order & bradley price is mopping the floor & you drive round for your door to be open & old enzo jumps on your lap DD

Also work wise Bunny sterling randomly called me about an investment in nigerian crude....think he was in the process of getting ripped off. though not 100% on that.

But Bunny was impressed that i knew who he was.

Not really a "Roberto Duran at a strip club" or a "Tommy Hearns in a lift with a prostitute" but interesting day at work for me anyway! I was working in an appartment block in Auckland New Zealand years ago, and in one of the rooms there were four of us working. I was putting pipes up doing the sprinklers and got talking to a labourer a fellow pom (thats what they call us brits in N.Z and OZ) and the subject gets round to boxing, it turns out he was the brother of a light heavyweight from Blackpool called Simon Mcdougall, at the time my cousin (Mark potter heavyweight) was a pro - so we was talking about shows we went to and so-on when the Tiler buts in and says he's a pro boxer and is fighting next week in a promotion in Auckland (He was a south African super middleweight called Dean Evans) laughing the guy doing the kitchen said he was New Zealand Light heavyweight during the 70's (His name was Joe Jackson, he fought Anthony Mundines dad Tony!) - We all went a couple of days later and saw Dean blast some geezer out in about a minute!! Nobody really famous but certainly the best day at work I've ever had! All the boxers names are here on boxrec. I'm just not that computer literate and can't do the link thing!

[Craig14]

Maybe I should of switched some of the names for like David Tua and Gerrie Coetzie or something

[hurlock]

coetze was south african you plum.

[s-t]

met anthony farnell at the finals of the commenwealth games at the m.e.n


and nigell benn in tenerife

[Craig14]

So is my mate Dean Evans! If you read the story properly!! You been on here all night caining people Hurlock! I don't think you can handle your beer either that or your boyfriend left cheated on you and you feel agrieved !!! Knob.

[hurlock]

damn you :!: dirty yid :!:

i'll take you & ur cuz DD

[Craig14]

You could probably handle me (with a name like hurlock, wasn't he the millwall nutter) but my cuz would kill you hes into all that cage fighting shit now!!!

[hurlock]

really :!: :!:

thought he was a pub landlord.

mark had great power but it seemed to just zap away after a few rds, it could of been poor stamina or psychological???

im 8st dripping wet & would bend his fingers back into submission D
well done on recognising hurlock

[Craig14]

He was in the pub game for awhile (I think you must of seen him in that shit sky one programme!) and then after he had his license taken away he went into unlicensed boxing won about 15 on the trot all knock-outs including butterbean (thats on you-tube) alot of the boxers were just musclemen with no previous boxing experience - but some are ex. pros dominic negas does it aswell but i don't think mark fought him! and now hes doing this mma thing - he actually fights next saturday in london I think its on sky sports 3 highlights wednesday!!!

That's interesting to know. Also watch out because now you've revealed you're Mark's cousin you'll be stalked by his adoring fan club i.e. Rhino and Spud

Clinton Woods eating chips at 'The Jungle' soft play area in Chesterfield.

True story.

[palooka]

I saw Junior Witter in Currys Digital on the High Street in Doncaster; John Anthony was parked up in a gardening van down the road and I once bumped into Herol Graham on Sheffield market. I was stood next to Mark Mcreath at the Love Parade at Leeds; he seemed a good lad. JonJo Irwin was having a meal and a pint with his missus outside Zest on Donny High Street; JonJo is a friendly laid back man.

[hurlock]

yid why wont he return to boxing??? this tell's me mma is easier or just suit's his strenghs better possibly.

[palooka]

In the nightclub toilet Marvin seemed much bigger than I would have imagined. It seemed so long too, and even more broad than i could have imagined

My mate Rob Harper boxed for the Ingles at one point. He refused to get in the shower at the same time as Ryan Rhodes; he said Ryan is built like John Holmes

[Craig14]

When he lost to sprott in 2003 he got a detached retina, they refused to give him his licesence back - one of his ex managers was andrew mortlock and he was running the unlicensed thing so he went into that! I guess the next natural progression is MMA (more money) I haven't spoke to him for a while but see him on face book and he's learnt all different types of fighting skills now and looks very fit (fitter than he ever was in his boxing days, I think hes a personnal trainer now aswell!) I remember at the time he tried everything to get his pro-licesence back but they wouldn't give him one!!! Cheers deserter for taking taking that thing off!! I slept after watching the Marquez-Diaz 2 promotion thing last night and half expected to wake-up being banned from here and thinking f.w lawyers would be onto me!!!!

was irwin's fight with colin mcmillan any good? i recall as a schoolboy, i was reading about it in the paper that got left on the bus. it sounded like a good fight but i never got to see it.

[palooka]

It was a very good fight; JonJo was a very tough, tidy boxer. The bout was fast paced and I thought that JonJo had won by a couple of rounds. Colin was a gifted and silky boxer and was boxing very close to home; it seemed a bit of a hometown thing to be honest.
