BoxRec

Can someone explain why so many Canadiens boxed basicly in Florida?
It looks like a long tradition with a certain reason.

I can only think of Razor Rudduck off the top of my head.

WHo did you have in mind?

GEOGRAPHY IS ONE REASON. QUITE A LOT OF CANADIANS COME SOUTH FOR THE WINTER. THOUSANDS ARE PART TIME RESIDENTS IN THE FORT LAUDERDALE AND BROWARD COUNTY AREA, CREATING A FAN BASE.

ALSO, ANGELO DUNDEE AND CHRIS HAD GOOD CANADIAN CONECTIONS. ANGELO HAS TRAINED AND MANAGED A NUMBER OF CANADIANS INCLUDING IAN CLYDE AND ALEX WILLIAMSON, TO NAME A COUPLE THAT COME TO MIND - BOTH VERY NICE GUYS, INCIDENTALLY.

Thanks Enrique.
Good reason. I've seen it in mags from way back of the mid 40's.
Romeo Quimet, with a bolo punch, was one of a list I'll post here some day.
