Sorry, not that one
Georgie Smith v. Derek Roche, Richie Edwards and Dewi Roberts full fights. One round of Danny Quacoe fight and one round of Ian Black amateur fight.

ERIC GUY is the best person to ask imo, he'll most likely have that one and maybe Georgie v Paul Ryan in the amateurs they were in the 90's. You'll have to send him a pm, I don't know how much he charges but he does a lot of fights for boxers and it's a professional set up.

I saw Georgie box Roche up in Carlisle but he was past his best by then but still very gutsy, it looked as though he would fold but really sucked it up. There were a handful of Essex voices urging him on and I do think he heard them and he toughed it out.

He had quite a following and like you say, he fitted in the rave scene very well; didn't he overdo it and it affected his mental health for a spell? He had a break from the sport while he got well again I think but he wasn't the only one to overdo it.

Didn't he have a brother that was also really good? I don't think he turned pro though.
