was it a ko? anway, well done billy. did you whip yourself into shape for the fight or was it the same old routine of light exercise, junk food and beer.

i believe it was PTS actually from BBN but I may be wrong...yes when i read that i thought the same but I think he means it's about time you knocked someone out.
I once heard Bessey never turned pro cos he thought he didn't punch hard enough so stayed amateurs......had a change of heart on that one obviously.

billy has been pro for about five years now, he just hasnt been very active. i think i can remember him considering going back to amatuers after his first pro fight ( which he incidendly won ) but never bothered.

Runbbish - I remember you flattening a boastful and muscular Joe Young in the ABAs.

Well worth watching, esp as it looked like they pulled someone out of the pie shop or pub and got him to fight an athlete......

It ranks right next to beer-boy Darren Corbett's KO of Chris Okoh as most unlikely looking victor..........
