not seen him. Likely a talented boxer if like his father, but only one stoppage so far, not sure if that is due to learning on the game, turning over young, little am experience, or not, but if only 1 KO in 11/12, likely to be a harder sell. Have you seen any of his fights? I did enjoy watching Haskins Sr.

Needs to get away from the Bristol sanigar circut and fight on some TV shows. Hard to say how good he is until he steps up. Just learning atm

does Sanigar just rotate them locally? Did Haskins Sr stay with them his whole career? I know they've been around a lot but do not know that area re boxing, nor them.

Pretty sure Lee was with Sanigar his whole career but Lee boxed on the road a fair bit. Beat Jamie McDonnell in Yorkshire I’m pretty sure and also went abroad a few times when he was rebuilding (which he did a few times.) Without looking at his record I’ve Got an inkling he won and lost shots at the European title away from home and also won a ranking belt in Morocco.
He was obviously very lucky to get a home World title shot and pretty much defended it on the road to maximise his money altho fair to say the Stuart Hall fight was neutral ground.

This was his defeat for the European title. He was in some really horrendous boring fights but weirdly also has a few exciting ones in there.
This was one of the best European title fights that year.

Lee Haskins never gets enough credit for a wonderful career. Talented fighter.

Haskins always reminded me a bit like Junior Witter. Awkward style that could be explosive or really difficult on the eye. Haskins' fight with Don Broadhurst remains one of the worst I've ever seen.
I was at the fight in Belfast the night he lost to Ryan Burnett. One of the judges mixed the two fighters up and gave him the win by like 119-109 or something. Crazy but funny.

1 KO In 9 fights but the other 8 that he went the distance with DONT get stopped, they are top Journeymen they have lost a combined 595 time and only 32 stoppages between all of themSeanBrennan wrote: ↑19 Oct 2023, 16:41 not seen him.
