Mesi got scared to death when he stepped up in competition vs Vassily Jirov and ended up with a brain clot. That was a career stopper.

Hey Martin, did you have a big row with Lee on a documentary about the TKO gym Tenerife? It was either you or Kevin from memory.

Anyone heard anything about Michael Maguire? People raved about him in the amateurs but last I heard he'd quit the sport - still unbeaten....

Ian Wilson has suffered with injuries but still hopes to return to boxing. I think he's a real talent.

jawaid khaliq won the IBO title and mixed in with some top class opponents. not world class but just short of that. another fighter to retire undefeated was ricardo samms, he had a ton of potential.

Pretty sure it was Lear.Johnny Eames looked worried Beavis was going to get chinned!Beavis ended up charged with murder over some gang incident and was acuitted but convicted of a lesser charge.

The story is that Epton decided to pack it in when he was given a really hard time in sparring by a 16-year old Naz. Apparently, it was such a chasening experience that Epton decided boxing really wasn't for him any more.

You know I've seen the infamous Naz-Epton spar in Wincobank on tape, and Mark did all right. He picked up a swelling around the eye but was never wobbled or anything.

I was looking at Boxrec for any info, but what happened to Welsh Flyweight Mo Nassir? I thought he turned over, but I cannot see to find his record. Did he actually fight anyone, has he retired?

I know very young to state if he fits into this thread, just wondering whats happened to him?

Mo failed a brain scan the last i heard. He was supposed to be turning pro with Enzo Calzaghe as his manager.

Agh 'the Monk'. I think I recall seeing his debut on the undercard of Wayne McCullough-Jose Luis Bueno and also featured Vince 'the Sligo Kid' Feeney and a cracking fight involving Shannon Taylor.

It was the first pro show I attended and I was impressed by McFadden who, as the Floater, made his entry to an emptying hall.

I always tried to follow what he went on to do as he sort of disappeared and then someone told be he had a Building Surveying firm in Donegal/Derry.

Whilst your last statement is bollocks, the rest of your post is a good shout - except for the fact he wasn't unbeaten. Jawaid was a fantastic boxer and it was a real shame when he decided to knock it on the head at 36. In my view, he was at his peak at the wrong time politically to be able to get big fights in the States - who wanted to see a guy with a name like Jav's possibly beating American champions circa 2001-2004. As far as I know, he's still doing some taxi work but his main passion lies with the gym he and his brother opened a year or two back.

macho- he says he got beaten once, ergo he isn't claiming Jawaid was unbeaten. :TU:

aye, too busy being confounded by the statement that Nottingham doesn't support it's own fighters, I am sure.

yeah, right.

carl Froch has to pay those 8000 people to turn up every time.
why dont u sod off back to botp instead of constantly stalking my posts?

khaliq wasnt supported in nottingham and others such as the two brothers werent either. u think if froch or anyone was such a draw in nottingham the fight wouldnt be held in a football ground? 8000 big wow i bet most of them were from other places and travelled

if froch was so well supported in nottingham.....which as one of britains best ever fighters youd think he should be.......why are his fights taking place in places like helsinki,denmark and almost always anywhere but nottingham and it isnt about super 6 home and away stipulations. Nottingham is a big city it has two football grounds.

He's form my hometown of kettering, the rumour going round is that he was last seen in Peterborough bottling the fook out of somebody outside a bar whilst taking a year out.... though i cant be sure if this is true. He had a lot of buzz about him around town especially as he was training David haye
