Anyone know who the old guy is? Certainly knows his way round the ring so im thinking a ex boxer from yesteryear.

That poor bloke was set right up, never knew what hit him!
No way Grandpa in that clip is 78, he's about 60'ish tops.

Just had a look he's just a young 78 now he won his last 15 fights or so I wonder why he gave up
Fvck me if that was Eder Fvcking Jofre that kiddie deserved it & fvcking more. I was about thirteen when that happened to me, not a fully-grown man in my twenties, & to be grinning like that whilst thinking you're going to take liberties & have some fun with, like the best, at least one of the best bantamweights who ever lived...
Although, I would give anything to have been battered & humiliated by a pensionable Eder Jofre rather than a fat Cockney plumber named Ted.

He was 40 when he finally retired in 1976, so I guess he just decided he no longer had the desire to fight on. I dont think this guy is Jofre though.If you do a google images search on Jofre he doesnt look much like this guy.billy bessey wrote:I was told it was Eder Jofre former bantam and featherweight world champion who's now in his 80s

I dont think I would like to train at this gym though-health and safety not exactly at the forefront.

What a nasty little old pudendum. I doubt it was Eder Jofre though - he looks more like an older version of Inspector Closeau.
I didn't see the younger feller disrespecting him - because someone is older and smaller doesn't mean they aren't a shitty little bully who doesn't deserve a fornicating good hiding.

Ya, I don't know the context behind what was occurring but throwing heavy shots while the young guy was turned away after being dropped seemed unnecessary.
Hopefully someone finds out who the redoubtable old guy is (I believe someone in the comments suggested that he's Italian). I don't know how experienced his opponent was, but I wouldn't be surprised if most aged pros could beat up your average 'tough guy' regardless of how young the latter is; years of training, sparring, and fighting go a long way.

I miss the phrase "can't... for toffee." That's like literally the first time in years I've heard that.

It's on Youtube:

I've been told that it's Ernesto Bergamasco, who is a former Olympian and is 64 years old. He lost to Dave 'Boy' Green as a pro. http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_ ... &cat=boxer

Re: Youve got to like this video
To be fair to the younger guy, he seemed to be laughing himself at the end when he was standing by the ropes and everyone else had started laughing. fornicate me that's got to be embarassing though. Even if the guy was a good fighter in his day he's in his mid 60's now so it would still sting no matter what lol

He hadn't got much choice but to laugh.
pretty sure he wasn't chuckling when he looked in the mirror later on, realising how fvcking shite he is at boxing.

So they have dodgy type gyms in Italy, at least he stopped soonish , when he realised he was far to good, for what looked like a first timer in the gym, but why was the spar allowed to happen, sorry the hammering.
