Ex Nobby Nobbs fighters

Post by BOXINGBARMY1 »

Does anyone know how Howard Clarke is doing.
Last I heard he was in a nursing home in a pretty bad way.

Anybody know what Anthony Hanna, Arv Mitto and Karl Taylor are up to nowadays.

Not forgetting Paul Ramsey and Paul Wesley, lloyd Hibbert.

Another character from Nobbies' gym was his assistant trainer Andy Myers. Seems to have gone off the radar.

Any news would be welcome.

Did most of them choose to stop, or did the board make them? I remember they effectively retired heavy Howard Daly because they thought he was getting hit too much.

None of Nobby's boys got hit too much, have had some contact with a few of them, Arv, Pete Buckley, Dave Hinds, Leeroy Williamson, Trevor Smith, they are all doing good, had a lot of fights had a couple of quid and none were beat up.

About says it all mate all of Nobbys lads were very tough and as you say they never got hit much Peter Buckley even after 300 fights is as sharp as a razor and he trains and takes Sid Razak out all over the place most weeks

Yeah as someone said earlier he looks after Sid Razak. Seems to be doing well too as Sid has picked up a couple of wins. And I'll confirm Pete 100% has all of his faculties, it's an education shooting the shite with him on all matters boxing.
