Director of Boxing @tasmanfighters. Manager of athletes… Celtic FC, Parramatta Eels for my sins... Once took a guy to the Heavyweight championship of the world.
@Tom_Gray_Boxing@TopHeavyweights In the space of one year Evander Holyfield fought Mike Tyson twice and Michael Moorer. Probably would’ve just about squeezed another in if the Tyson rematch wasn’t postponed. We don’t see high profile activity like that anymore and the sport is worse for it.
Tomorrow marks the 100th anniversary of famed boxer Harry Greb’s untimely death. I’m traveling to Pittsburgh today to visit his grave. Stay tuned for updates.
In camp with Jack Bowen and Teremoana Teremoana at Thai Payak today. Brought some sparring over for Jack. Always a pleasure to spend time around good people.
🔥WELCOME TO THE TEAM! 🔥World rated Super Middleweight Jack Bowen signs with Tasman Fighters. JB is #13 in the world with the WBO and looking to climb towards world honours. You’ll be hearing his iconic ring walk music on our next show. Fight news dropping soon!
@NadimElHaddad1@PhilR2025 He actually had some tremendous wins, towards the tail end. Beat Derrick Harmon by stoppage in a WBA elimination contest. Beat Imamu Mayfield in an IBF elimination at Cruiser. Just a proper old school elite veteran.
Sad to hear Jorge Castro has passed away. I saw his fight with Paul Briggs live. Despite being well past his best, he was tough as nails. I told Briggsy of the news and he agreed saying “my right knuckle was never the same after fighting him haha!”. RIP champ.
