Wonderful afternoon full of nostalgia in the store on Saturday 20th July with the former WBC World Welterweight Champion John H Stracey. Tickets were sold out and it was standing room only. Massive thank you to each and everyone of you who attended, I hope you all enjoyed the experience. I interviewed John and we spoke about his humble beginnings, his domestic and World title victories and defeats, his rivalry with Dave Boy Green, his relationship with the Krays, his incredible victory nearly 50 years ago in Mexico against Jose Napoles, John also signed autographs and had his photo taken with everyone.
An absolutely incredible afternoon for the official World Book Launch of the former WBC World Light-Middleweight Champion Maurice Hope MBE in the store on 15th June. Literally hundreds turned up to meet Maurice and the author Ronnie Shillingford. We also had the former British & European Super-Middleweight Champion James Cook MBE plus boxers Ricky Beard, Tony Hudson, Alec Johnson, Colin Manners, Kevin Downer and Jason Beard. We also had the Vice-Chairman of the British Boxing Board of Control Guy Williamson in attendance. Thank you very much to everyone who attended
