LOU GENT
Does anyone know what "Lethal" Lou is doing these days ?
I remeber he was always with Alex Steene (in the dark glasses and white suit) back in the early to mid 90s.
If anyone has his fight with Gypsy Carmen could they post it up. I'd love to see that scrap again.

Re: LOU GENT
I got a feeling he went to live the quiet life in the country, near Norwich or something. Kids went to uni, life has been decent for him.nobleart1978 wrote: ↑14 Mar 2022, 13:46 Does anyone know what "Lethal" Lou is doing these days ?

Re: LOU GENT
Steene used to pop into Hunslet boys club. He brought Mad Frankie Fraser with him a few times. Always unpaid. Alex was from the area, apparently. South Leeds.

I don't know. I met him when he drew with you know who. Without the knockdowns, he'd have won.Coco wrote: ↑14 Mar 2022, 17:14Weren't they pally with Mike Dalton too?mickey1975 wrote: ↑14 Mar 2022, 16:44 Steene used to pop into Hunslet boys club.

Good Friend of my father in laws, from his original Streatham days. Now living in Norfolk I believe, as previously posted

The Steenes (Alex and Greg) did a really good job with Lou. They were always able to bring him back after a loss and keep him earning. Welsh heavyweight Dave Pearce fought on a Steene show in the 1980s and flattened Belgium's Albert Syben in the first round with a huge left hook. I can still see an ecstatic Alex hugging Pearce like he had just won a world title. Unfortunately, it was off-TV.

Re: LOU GENT
lou gent opponent hunter clay is funnily enough a spitting image of his fellow hunter, michael hunter 2


Re: LOU GENT
I think Gent has a farm or a small holding now.
Re: LOU GENT
To tell you the truth, I think that actually IS Michael Hunter.margaret thatcher wrote: ↑15 Mar 2022, 02:40 lou gent opponent hunter clay is funnily enough a spitting image of his fellow hunter, michael hunter 2

Watch his fight with Henry. He nearly got crippled with body shots but kept on coming.

Re: LOU GENT
ha, i always thought you were a taff too
Re: LOU GENT
Well I went pro at 18 while living in Swansea so I was always billed out of Swansea, also in total I lived there for like 15 years.
All the Welsh think I have a cockney accent and Londoners think I sound Welsh!
At least in Spain they can't tell the difference!
Re: LOU GENT
Benn v Gent was a wonderful punch up
You knew it would be a punch up, you knew what the result would be....but it still didn't disappoint !
