Paul Skyes, Britains hardest streetfighter

I have just finished reading a good book by former heavyweight boxer Paul Skyes called Sweet Agony. I looked up on his record on Boxec and was suprised to see that his last fight was in Lagos against Ngozika Ekwelum (losing in the first round). I thought Paul retired after the defeat against John L Gardner. Has anyone any info on the Lagos fight? [email protected]

harder than joe savage?

both these bums are hard on the street (vs other people who have never had a fight), and inept in a boxing ring. bert cooper bombed savage out and this fella lost to ekwelum, an african journeyman, unsurprisingly in rd 1.
