      Something like thirty years is a long time to be following the sport, my friend, and after that long one tends to pick up a few things here and there. Especially when my own country's boxing scene hasn't been especially strong in recent years. Plus, the UK has such a rich history in the sport, it's very hard to ignore what they and their fighters have contributed to boxing all these years. Lots of great fighters and champions have come from your side of the ocean, that's for sure.

      Thanks, by the way.

        I do remember seeing Doug de Witt a few times, and not giving Benn a chance against him. How wrong i was. You know, like i was acting the expert because not many people knew DeWitt over here. I lost £15 on that! Oh well!

            I reckon Lennox Lewis is the greatest fighter to come out of the UK!

              Eubank is ok... He seems to be on the tv every now and again doing programmes where camera's follow him around (like a day in the life of Chris Eubank). He's still a bit weird, and still definatly a character! ...LOL!...

                Used to go out with a girl from St Hellens. Just along from Suttons brewerey, the estate oposite where Bargain Booze is now!
