Remember Danny beating Pacy, twice i think. Wasnt Danny a postman too? Someone like Alex would know, whats he up to now?

I think he was a joiner I remember reading an article in the Manchester evening news before one of his fights about working all day then training

fornicate knows where i got postman from! Sat on a table with him, his dad (i think) ali nuumbembe and a few others at a vip doo once. Seem to recall terry marsh being the speaker

"Did you shoot allegedly?"

"Of course i didnt *wink*"

His son boxes at northside now heard he's pretty good, find him down there I believe

Terrys son?

Ha no hardings son

Dannys son? Danny must only be 31 odd? Fair play.

Never most exciting, but his jab destroyed pacy

Danny beat in an upset and then again in the rematch after that he then seemed to fall off face of the earth. He was good was at Olivers with us for a while sure still unbeaten good lad too. Seen Him the the other week at Northside Joe Penningtons were Craig Watson trains and Craig Bunn put some timber on so was training to lose it get fit!! Danny is a joiner think having full time job, tickets etc was taking the enjoyment outta it for him like us all, the punching Postman your thinking of is the famous Jonny Rocco A.K.A Rollerball Rocco or John hussey

Must be Al. Perhaps they were on the table at either jolly boys or the doo upstairs at the footy club, cant remember where but terry marsh and mike gomez were speakers.

I covered the first (and second) time danny beat pacy, remember frank bigging chris up as coming out the army and being his next "name". Danny had that strange style that just out jabbed him, was it moore macklin card... May have been

Didn't see the fights, although remember him when I followed Craig Watson a few years back and I trained doing white collar shite for abit and seen Harding about,

Was at Terry marsh in droylesdon I think, yea chris was aba champion I think and they had high hopes but Danny was quite slippery and awkward had a jab that seemed to land regular even thou u could see it coming!! I remember a lot on Moore macklin not sure Danny was on prob was thou top night that

He had a few fights fell through and just got sick of it. As Alex said having to mess about selling tickets and working does take the fun out. Spoke to Danny a few months back, he's driving wagons now.

Went with him to Bobby Rimmers to spar Michael Gomez before Gomez fought Khan. Very entertaining.

A mate of mine use to spar him Wayne Pinder and Craig Watson they said he was tough and decent fighter, then he just vanished off the face of the earth

He use to spar Kahn a lot when he was at Oliver's. peope always spoke highly of him, I'm always intrigued to hear what ex boxers are doing once they quit.

He spared most of the lads I remember sparing him I remember thinking he looked easier to hit then when u was actually in with him he also had a decent jab too

What's happening with you Alex, will you be fighting again?

Hes training fighters now, doing very well too i hear.

Sorry Rob I not been on for a few days I always had a boxing gym even before I went Pro and when I got to 32 yrs and couple of opportunities fell through I had 2 twin brothers asking me to turn them Pro who I taught previous so decided to get trainers licence. This is how I seen Danny Harding as I was at Joe Penningtons with 1 of my Fighters as Joe has a great variety of weights to spar!! I have a very busy gym recently had an Amateur win Novice under 20's who I taught from scratch and have a few pros coming through

Nice one pal. Sounds great, wish you all the best for the future. Where is yoyr gym?

Talking about whats happened to boxers, can someone remind me of the name of the lad that had a huge tattoo on his back and i think he was a middleweight, its just bugging me as can't remember his name.

Was it Matthew thirwall

Pimp, wasn't him mate.

No wasn't him either, this was a whole back job.

Hughie Davie from the northeast ? He's got Nigel Benn on his back

Top man is Danny.
