BoxRec

Hello I found this site after I've been searching for answers. My grandfathers name is Gordan Fleming, I herd he became a champian boxer in the phippens sometime after WW2 but I've also herd rumors that he may have used a false name. My grandfather is gone now and I want to find out the truth and I'm praying against odds someone can help me. My grandfather was a some what skinny Irish man. He's have to be close to 20's. That's all I have. I'd really hope someone could help me. it's been over a year now.

RoMayDrako,

If I understand your question properly: Your granddad was Irish but he won a tiltle in the Philippens after World War 2...possibly under a different name.

A thought occurs to me that you might want to contact Philippen boxing correspondents for the various boxing sites on the web--even this one, I believe--has a Philippen correspondent.

Best of luck,

john garfield

The expert in that area is a guy named Joe Kozumi, who knows everything about boxing in the Orient. He is the correspondent for 'Ring' magazine. You may get a contact address from them.

Joe actually his his own website. Bang in his name in the google search facility and it will bring up that site. Any probs, get back to me.
