Can't find a record for him. When did he box?

1930's to 1950

I'm guessing Tony Rea was not his boxing name?

Was he unbeaten for 6 years because of World War II?

No. He was in World War 2, but went 41 fights unbeaten from 1937 to 1943

One man who may know would be Barry Hugman (01462 625074). Or author Bob Lonkhurst (01707 659756). Tell them the Board gave you their numbers if they ask.

I bet Kev knows, bennie. This is his idea of a trivia quiz. He needs to realise that he's just a statto!

D'oh! You had me fooled with that 'Tony' rubbish. Real name Antonio Rea, Italian by birth, boxed in Britain under a psuedonym...
