Hall of Famer Jeff Fenech says his attraction for the opposite sex contributed as much to his loss to Azumah Nelson as the African's boxing skills. Fenech says he was sleeping with up to five women a day in the weeks leading up to his crushing KO loss before a crowd of 37,000 people at Princes Park in Melbourne in 1992. "I wasn't married back then and I had a massive ego," Fenech said. "I thought I was invincible and that I could do anything I liked. I slept with four or five girls every day. I done everything wrong. I just thought I was going to win. In the end I paid a heavy price." Fenech and Nelson will have a rematch at Vodafone Arena on June 24. Fenech will also star in a four-part Foxtel series, which began filming last week, documenting his life.
