Boxing Life Stories -Jane Couch

Post by leejonesjnr »

This one is really great.
Jane Couch was a little before my time and I have always thought that she was a bit rough and a bit dim.
I was wrong.
She comes across beautifully and whilst she expresses a little disappointment in the industry in general she doesn't seem at all bitter, just very matter of fact.
It is a very enjoyable listen and there are a few quite touching moments.

I will check this out.

Jane used to post on here and is a right character - good laugh but doesn’t give or take any shit.

I wonder how many ladies on lottery funding are aware of Jane as without her efforts 20+ years ago women’s boxing would not be where it is now.

Met Jane a few times on boxing trips to watch my brother and she was Friendly and chatty.

wasn't she the original one to start those IFL type interviews a few years back , I remember she was on here posting them as they were just starting out ?.

Yeah Jane did the fella a favour, introduced him around, helped him out and he mugged her off.
I'm sure Jane would ask Eddie more searching questions.

When Koogie was getting all tough guy with Prince Patel - I bet he wouldn’t try that shit with Jane, she would slap him up good style
