The Great & Forgotten Tommy West and His Wars with the Barbados Demon (Joe Walcott)
Quote:
As a Scotsman this is not an easy thing to say, but Wales has perhaps the proudest history in all of boxing. Currently, just over three-million people reside in Wales, rather fewer than reside in Iowa and millions fewer than reside in Scotland—forty-five million fewer than live in England. Nevertheless, the Welsh can dominate any list of the greatest fighters to hail from the United Kingdom.
