Thanks for calling attention to Bert Gilroy.

For those of use familiar with who Jimmy Wilde is,

this quote has great significance:

Jimmy Wilde: "Bert Gilroy is an excellent boxer."

Jimmy Wilde was one of the best fighters in the entire history of boxing.

When he calls another fighter "an excellent boxer" that has great meaning.

And some people want granberry out of this forum? I do not get it!!!

Don't despair, Elmer. The forum no longer wants him gone --- we simply have him on Ignore.

Walcott wasn't avoided, he just lost too often. He had no legitimate complaint for not getting a title shot until he did.

McCallum could get fights, just not the ones he really wanted (Hearns, Leonard,etc). I"m curious about the Mitch Green post cause it did seem like Mitch had periods of great innactivity.
