Can any of you guys help??

A poster on another forum is looking for some back issues of Boxing Monthly - Especially older editions..

Notably, the issues that covered Hamed/Barerra, Hamed/Kelley..

More recently, RJJ vs Woods & RJJ vs Ruiz..

Any ideas if it is still possible to get hold of the above??

Cheers for any help guys..

boxingstuff.com would almost certainly have them.
The poster has tried the boxing monthly website I assume.

RJJ KO6 Woods
RJJ W12 Ruiz

There you go, no need to bother now....

He should give their offices a call chief ( if he hasn't already ) I'm sure I've seen them advertise back issues. They probably have a room full of em..

The do have back issues but not many, when I subscribe I phoned them and they gave me a list of the ones they had available - some of the ones that were less the 2 years old had been sold out.

So yes, you'll get of the issues for some of the fights, but you might be unlucky with Hamed vs Barrera.

Having said that it was about 1998 when I had the list, with computer technology getting more advance, perhaps they've found better ways to store the back catalogue.

Worth a go.

You're probably right Stu - just remembered they have a website:

http://www.boxing-monthly.co.uk/backs.htm

He should try Dominic Foley - but be prepared to buy a whole volume (April - March) as I don't think he splits them.

He's more interested in the photography so I suppose it would depend on the quality..

Thanks to all for the info...

We've got a lot of faith in Mesi haven't we Goz? I can easily see the Next White Hope getting laid out tomorrow night.

Has anyone actually seen Mesi fight? I know I haven't. Quite a few are picking Williamson by KO but I don't even think he's a legit puncher despite his impressive record.

I reckon it could turn into a maul-fest with Mesi getting the decision at the end.

You could be right there Kilburn, I haven't seen him fight either. But being a white heavyweight you're always half expecting him to get shockingly knocked out

Williamson is described as genuinely heavy handed, but sounds like he has a glass jaw too - I'm going for Mesi just because I'm guessing he wont come unstuck at such an early stage, in front of his adoring home crowd.

could well do. I've never seen Mesi nor Williamson in action so I was going by the general feeling i've picked up from sites and forums really.

Well I watched Williamson on CH5 a while ago against Robert Wiggins. To me he just looked like another lazy(ish) fighter going nowhere. He certainly didn't look a great puncher to me and he hangs his chin way up in the air, begging to be knocked out. Bugger it let me find Mr lightsoot, time to change my prediction from UD to brutal KO.

By the way will you just look at that picture of Dokiwari jesus. And they accuse Bernard Hopkins of being ugly!
