Noel Thornberry, who had his first fight in 1984 and his last in 1990, is fighting Scott Gaby next month.

Is he nuts?

Quite possibly, Thats the same night Jamie Myer has a fight

Oh well, it is a black tie turnout. Everybody will be well dressed for the funerals.

How old is Thornberry anyway? I can remember when his father Trevor was the next big thing in Australian boxing, then he lost a few fights, culminating in being crippled by journeyman Jackson McQuade.

Noel would be no more than 43 & is still a very fit man. Jamie had put on a bit of weight since his days in the ring, but is slow shedding it to 90kgs

there is a reward for the identity of brute.

Ouch, was his post inaccurate, how much just kidding It would be interesting to hear from Brute.

Reference such as 'dog' etc got up this clean living Christian boy's nose.

After his fight with McQuade Thornberry was physically incapable of fighting or working again. I never said it was through anybody's fault, it was one of those unfortunate things that happen in a boxing ring.

Would it be unacceptable if I said Emile Griffith killed Benny Paret? It happened, folks. It is a hard game.
