This Can't Be Real?
This has got to be the best boxing name if this is legit?

Re: This Can't Be Real?
It's 'legit' as in he boxed under that name but that's not his real name, sadly.

He boxed out of the Ingle gym if I remember correctly.
Fidel Castro Smith's actual name was Fidel Castro, but he boxed under the unlikely name of slugger o'toole.

Re: This Can't Be Real?
I've met Chris Bacon and his brother, they are Aussies, his bro used to be on Sons and Daughters. I think he was a top wrestler also, a real good pro, proper hard nut but what a nice bloke.
I think he has done a lot on the unlicensed circuit since and pretty much smashed everyone before him!
I read he was in bother before with one of the Hyland brothers over some money owed with Wayne Rooney's agent, I was pleased to see he got off.
