Can anyone help me out? Simon McDougall.
Going to see my mate in 3 weeks and his brother Simon Mcdougall used to be a pro light heavy during the late 80's and 90's. Unfortunatly he died back home in Blackpool while we was travelling together in 2002. Does anyone have any of his fights on dvd or any memorabilia? Ofcoarse I'd pay. Cheers.

Didn't realise he had passed away. RIP
Saw his fight with John Foreman at the Tower Ballroom in Edgbaston many years ago. Hopefully some of the collectors on here can help you

thanks for that mate. I just tried to buy the book online but it only comes from an american site, do you know where I could buy it in England? - I hope it has good things to say about him.Old bones Ian wrote:Also the book The Alternative View of A BOXERS RECORD

looks like they have it in stock, the book says that Simon liked a fight, but was an awful trainer. He just liked the fighting

I'm gonna be there at the blackpool show in august,with Bri, hopefully we can have a beer (if your not training). I think if you haven't met him already - he'd like to meet you.Jeff Thomas wrote:I knew Simon he did the corner with Louis vetch for my pro debut was honoured to have him there
