Kelly Hanley 1950’s middleweight

Post by raydoug »

Kelly Hanley boxed in the 1950’s having seven professional bouts winning two with last fight against Reg Hayes. Kelly was well known in the Ryde Ermington area where he worked as a bouncer at the Local Inn and Ermington club hotel when Karl Riley was the boss. Kelly only had seven fights but was punchy. When I trained at Billy McConnells in 1969 I asked Bill did he know of Kelly
He said yes Kelly was a good middleweight who would spar anyone but had problem with booze and often arrived at the gym under the weather
