Picture (WBC event) in this week's Boxing News

There's a two page spread in this week's Boxing News showing former fighters at a WBC "Night of Champions" event, but posing "Who do you recognise?" rather than naming them

The names may be listed in next week's edition (though on past performance I'm not confident)...anyone seen it? And more to the point can you name any of the fighters?

I think I can call Hector Camacho (2nd left front row, Iran Barkley (standing behind him), and maybe Roberto Duran (head only three rows back on right). Any others...?? Several of the others look familiar (but a lot older!) and I just can't recall the names.

If Claude abrams is reading this then please publish the names in next week'd BN!

I belive Tomasz Adamek was present as well.

Yeah those are the only faces I definitely recognised. Had an idea that of the 'taches was Lupe Pintor but not really sure...

I wondered if the guy with the tash in front was Wilfredo Gomez...??

think I'll e-mail Claude and ask if he's publishing the list

I think Luis Collazo and Miguel Angel Gonzales are on the back row

There was definitely mucho Latino machismo

I asked Claude Abrams was he planning to publish the list and he says "Hope som but we're still trying to name four or five". He mentioned Miguel Canto, Marcos Villasana, Carlos Zarate, Hector Camacho, Miguel Angel Gonzalez, John H Stracey, Lupe Pintor...I'm sure I have Duran, Iran Barkley and Carlos Ortiz as well.

Spotted John H (I think) once I'd read the mail from CA.... back row, 2nd from left in cap (?)
