I was looking at the fight this Monday between Sergey Kuzmin & Amir Mansour, in Russia, and noticed that Kuzmin had beaten Darnell "Ding-a-Ling" Wilson, who was a fun fighter to watch a few years ago.

Then I saw that Wilsons last fight was a loss to Adrian Granat, a hard punching Swedish heavyweight. So I'm looking at Granats record & I see the name Saul Farah and I'm thinking "How do I know that name?".

Then I remember that Farah, a Bolivian boxer with a 65(57)-23(17)-3, twice fought Billy Wright who is an American fighter in his 50's who fought as recently as last year. Wright, who once lost to Michael Moorer back in 1992, only fought once between 1999 & 2011 when he embarked on a world tour fighting in obscure locations such as Chile, Trinidad, Bolivia and New Zealand.

Which brings me to the point of this thread (if there is one ). On Valentines Day in 2014 Wright, who was born in Arizona & lives in Vegas, fought Chauncey Welliver, from Spokane, Washington, for the WBC Asian Boxing Council Heavyweight & the WBC Latino Heavyweight Titles.

Which I fought was a bit weird.

I think I have a problem

Sorry, very rare I get to make it to the forums...

The Latino title was one Billy held entering the bout so no thoughts there but for the ABCO, I was still a New Zealand resident at the time, actually still am due to a business I am associated with down there.
I was never a citizen of NZ but was a resident from 2005 til now. I haven't been back for a while but go in a few months for some business. That's what made me eligible to fight for all the Asian titles from 2009-14. I was living nearly full time in NZ except for training in the USA.
