Sid Nathan

[Mimmy]

Whats the opinion of the yesteryear boxing ref Sid? I didnt really see him very much but he has popped up on a few of my VHS fights recently.

decent ref - nice fella - see him at the LEBA meetings...he is very old and a little fragile these days

He passed away earlier this year I believe.

Sid has passed away and some of the obits were very warm.

I remember him doing plenty of the good fights Sportnight used to show mid-week, always immacuately turned-out and very much in control.

There's a nice piece on him here if you want to explore further

There is a chapter on him in The Fighting Men Of London by Alex Daley

There are also a few interviews with Nathan on the author's Youtube channel
