Sparrow Freeman was a lightweight with a record of: 76(9) wins - 46(12) losses -33 draws. He fought 155 times between the years of 1978-1985 and was basically a human punching bag, fighting usually 4 to 6 rounders, most of which went the distance.
I saw him fight a number of times at various League Clubs and he was too game for his own well-being. The accumulation of punches did him no good as his speech was slurred and many at ringside thought he was "punch-drunk"!
