Thank you for this! Just read about Nobby Nobs in a book called "Unlicensed" by John Hotten. People who don't respect journeymen don't respect the game, and records don't tell the whole story. Emanuel Augustus (38 W, 34 L) gave 50 and 0 Floyd Mayweather the hardest fight of his life. Darnell Boone (24 W, 25 L) gave world champions Sergei Kovalev and Andre Ward a lot more trouble than some supposedly world class fighters.
Brilliant upload Arv, I had 2 really hard fights against guys from your stable, Leeroy Williamson and Steve Hanley, all Nobby's guys like yourself were tough as nails and well schooled you were all brilliant pro's and could turn it on in a flip of a switch.
Amazing video and a real eye opener to the industry, heartbreaking, educational and understandable. I always knew match fixing was a thing just didn't think it was the whole pro scene but if you really think about it why wouldn't they it's all about the money and entertainment at the end of the day, putting on a show and keeping the customer coming back is the most important thing. Amature boxing is where the real fight is, It's so backwards
@Arv Mittoo 100 & Out. Around the time that Sunday times journalist came with you and I to that show in Stoke. I still have a copy of that newspaper. The only time I’ve bought it!,😂😂
I remember when Boxrec came out, you Arv was the first to tell me about it. Then it dawned on me that anyone in the world can checkout my record I remember thinking Oh Shit, I’ve been telling people I won half of them!!!😂😂😂 I watched your interview with Tris. Loved it mate.👍
