And Brendan got a kid who Jason had beaten 4 times and took him to a world title. Which of the two fighters do you think listened to Brendan?
Don't take it as a dig against Brendan, maybe he turned over too young, some fighters click better with different trainers
I don't pal. Jason won national titles training at Brendan's. His story would be an interesting book

Do you know how he is doing these days? He always struck me as a clever bloke with his head screwed on

So Ryan won? What weight was that at? I always thought Witter looked podgy/stocky in the amateurs but was surprised that he was light welter and seemed very lean as a pro.
10st 10.... Ryan gave him a count in the last
That's in between welter and light-middle. They had a catch weight fight did they?

I thought it was in the ABA’s. Maybe Junior came in light. If not, it’s very common to make a fight at any weight you like.

It wasn't the ABA's. It was a club show in Sheffield.

Ryan Rhodes was in the 94 ABA quarter finals, don’t know if he won or not, his a opponent was P. Heneghan from Moss side
