Does anyone know anything about this heavyweight who makes his debut this weekend.?

[CharlesListon]

Yes, but not much.

I think he won the Haringey box cup, but didn't get far in the ABA's.

I'm guessing that as he is some distance away from ABA/England/Team GB he's turned over.

If he follows the usual Goodwin promotional trajectory, he'll do OK up to a point.

We can expect a few easy nights against limited Eastern European fat cruiserweights, but to be fair that's standard across the board now.

Hopefully he'll do well.
Not fussed on "The Dancing Destroyer" name though!
