Danny Costello RIP
Danny Costello RIP
Just heard that ex commonwealth medalist and ABA fly champ has passed, don't know anything about it
Re: Danny Costello RIP
Amateur standout 
One of the best amateurs to come out of Hollington ABC. Three ABA titles if I remember correctly.
Had a stint in the pros but not sure where his head was at and how serious he took things.
One of those "what might have been"
RIP Danny

Re: Danny Costello RIP
Not another one….. sad…. Didn’t he have a heroin problem? Was super talented. RIP very sad all this
Re: Danny Costello RIP
Didn't he post on the forums, or have a representative post on his behalf or am I thinking of someone else - wasn't it around the Napa fight, wasn't he like a comeback opponent for Napa after a long layoff (for Napa).
RIP - I do remember he had a fair amount of talent - particularly in the amateurs.

Re: Danny Costello RIP
Bunce, Glyn Leach, Eric Guy, Derry Matthews and is it Dale Robinson commeting on the thread? Very good posters we lost along the way (I'm aware two are dead but they'd stopped posting anyway).
Re: Danny Costello RIP
Good grief ! Just read that old forum thread....over 20 years have passed 
Danny's amateur bout with Darrell Easton was terrific

Dale Robinson, now that was a blast from the past - he was a talented boxer.mickey1975 wrote: ↑25 Feb 2025, 09:28Bunce, Glyn Leach, Eric Guy, Derry Matthews and is it Dale Robinson commeting on the thread?

I would say both Glyn and Eric, were both active posters (perhaps not as active, but were active) at the time of their death. Both loses the boxing community is still feeling. What a magazine Boxing Monthly was under Glyn's lead.
Re: Danny Costello RIP
We have definitely had some high level posters here
Re: Danny Costello RIP
Nice link, mate. Glyn was a lovely man. That 11 years has flown.
