Re: Name the boxers
I've studied the picture ABOVE, just as it says, and I can confidently identify the two boxers as David Haye and Jon Thaxton.

Re: Name the boxers
I don't know who the boxers are, but have found out alot about George Formby.
Formby was his real name , its George Hoy Booth. At the height of his fame he was earning £100,000 a year, massive amount for that time.
I've really got to get a life

Personally, I think you look more like Ian Holloway. Take her to West Cowes for a bowl of mussels, then take her home for a rendition of "When I Go Cleaning Windows".

Fair enough mate.
Personally I haven't got a clue who they are and would only be guessing.
I'm interested to find out on Monday though, and incidently how many people got it right.
