Nel wasn’t an ordinary fighter, he was tall but very thin, gangly, overall Nel had never weighed over ten stone in his entire career, this was mainly due to only having only one sound lung since the age of 2 when he contracted TB. He was a keen footballer and in his early childhood he used to play out on the tough Merseyside streets just like every other young boy but he soon realised he was not strong enough to compete with the other lads, he was pushed and shoved and lacked obvious strength. He was teased about his weight and his looks only for a school bully to invite him down to the Everton Red Triangle Boxing club. It was there, and at the Gordon Institute, he learned to love the sport of boxing and was picking up prizes as early as twelve years old.

    International Boxing Research Organization Newsletter #26 September 1987 From: Tim Leone Sorry about being a week late on the last Newsletter, but I broke another copyer and it was necessary to have the copy work done by a printing company. To date there has been a total of 90,000 feet of 8mm and S8mm requested for transfer, about 8,000 feet of 16mm and 58 hours of VHS duplication requested. I'm surprised that Castle Films is no longer in business. Again, I must express gratitude to those members who took time to write and phone their encourgement over the resumption of the Newsletter. The organization is a joint venture involving all of us. Without the support of the membership, none of this would be possible. -- Long Live Boxing -- I am involved in doing research in the pre-1932 years of the career of Tiger Jack Fox. At the moment there are numerous verifications of main event matches between the years of 1925 and 1932 for him. Any additional information would be greatly appreciated. In this Newsletter, Thanks must go to the following gentlemen for their contributions: Tracy Callis, Dave Block, Paul Zabala, Bob Soderman, Lawrence Fielding, John Grasso, John Hibner, and Lucketta Davis. 1 V-1 E I F ID I FzECTOFt "V F" 1J A E NEW MEMBERS Jack Barry 33 Skyline Drive West Haven, CT 06516 Phone (203) 933-6651 Mr. Barry is interested in professional boxing from the bareknuckle era to 1959 in the U.S.A.

    Fight Record Johnny Curley (Lambeth)

    © www.boxinghistory.org.uk - all rights reserved This page has been brought to you by www.boxinghistory.org.uk Click on the image above to visit our site Johnny Curley (Lambeth) Active: 1913-1931 Weight classes fought in: bantam, feather, light Recorded fights: 173 contests (won: 124 lost: 31 drew: 17 other: 1) Born: 9th November 1898 Died: 1982 Manager: Dan Sullivan Mini Bio There are a number of bouts included in the 1986 British Boxing Yearbook that are a regurgitation of entries originally included in the 1921 'Boxing' Book of Records. I am dubious about many of these contests and I suspect that they may not have taken place at all. Boxing historian Gilbert Odd wrote of Johnny "Round-headed and red-haired, he was on the short side, but was a genious at working his way past defensive props. Once inside he would be extremely busy with both fists, hooking to the body and upper-cutting to the chin. His face held a cheerful look, even under pressure, and as far as sportsmanship went, he was the perfect little gentleman". Johnny will be remembered particularly for his contests with northerner Johnny Cuthbert and with fellow Lambeth boxer Phil Bond.

During this period, Anglo-Jewry developed a clear sporting tradition, in both a direct and indirect sense, and their participation in the world of British sport had a significant impact on processes and discourses surrounding integration, ethnicity and anti-Semitism.
