Eric Guy would be the man to contact on 01322 439133 or 07788 954225.

thanks, not many people have them as they were held in very small arenas but were recorded, over time they have been borrowed out and inevitably lost. Quite keen to get my hands on the Jimmy Vincent fight.

Yes, Samuels is all too capable of that. I feel his second fight with Richard Williams took a lot out of Williams and was one of the reasons Richard performed so lackidaisically against Sergio Martinez.
As for Winter, he took time out, came back with a win and then bowed out. Not many fighters bow out with a win.

I felt craig was fighting the better during the first round, his corner told him to go out and box samuels but he thought he could go gung-ho and KO him, bad move, night night.

Wonder how far he could have gone if things in the ring (the samuels fight) and out the ring, the "time off", would have gone differently for him.

Incidentally he is training some cracking young lads who will be turning pro in a short while. I believe he has a welsh ABA winner ready to turn pro.
