BoxRec

Not an impressive record but it was a tough opponent

Like it !!!!!!

Lee Evans used to be a boxer but I think it may have been just as an amateur because I can't find any pro record for him.

Ken went straight into this after his clash with Mike Baldwin he was nigh on 50 at the time, Calzaghe said he was shot but has signed to fight him March in a special attraction on the undercard of DLH's comeback versus Lena Zavaroni.

I've heard that too.... apparently he was a useful amatuer.

Ray Winstone is the one mopst people bring up. Allegedly 88 am fights, 80 odd wins...

Ray Boxed for St Georges, wasnt a bad Fighter.

The guy who played 'Zammo' in Grange Hill was a decent amatuer boxer, think he had hopes of having a career at it, but was involved in some accident that stopped him.

remember that lad who was married to Racheal well after he left Freshco's he did a bit of boxing too

Obviously he wanted to use his full name whilst boxing

And this one had to top up his wages from the bins

when not driving taxi's

http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?hu ... &cat=boxer

He did it to try and be tougher than his brother

theres a Jimmy Carr too and a Jim Carrey.

A pal of mine boxed a school boy semi final against a kid called Terry wogan. He got beat. Wogan went on to face Joe Calzaghe in the final.

He was norman curly watts

I always wanted to be this guy growing up. Didn't realise he's lost a few pounds and fought some of our best.

Ray Winstone's record was far worse than that.

Tommy Gunn,
The bloke you're thinking of is Glen Murphy.
He was a British Schoolboy Champ and I think did box pro.
He was from a family of boxers.
His dad fought, Terrance Murphy, and also his uncles Joe Lucy and Eddie Wright.
He was also a decent footballer. He was on Charlton's schoolboy books and we're the same age. This is where I recall him from with my footie days.
By the way, he got the MBE last year.

Glen Murphy one nice guy, think He won the London NE divs did He not.
