Britkid's 'Heavyweight' Easter 2006 quiz

[SimonH]

was it not the excel arena then? i said that a few days ago. lewis v botha and klitschko v barrett if i remember correctly

Like you, I was under the impression, they were one in the same, but when I went to Audley/Williams, I found out, it is not the old London Arena (Limeharbour, Isle of Dogs), but a new Arena in the Docklands (Royal Victoria Dock).

suppose its like saying honeyghan fought vaca twice at wembley arena when fight one was actually at the conference centre

They are two different complexes, it would be like saying Bugner/Bruno was at Highbury, not White Hart Lane

fair enough

britkid, can you please explain to me why some fighters wore thongs in the early 1900's?

LOL, I think it was an early Jockstrap, and as it was considered back then, bad boxing etiquette not to show your opponent, that you are not carrying a weapon; (bad choice of words), if you wore one, you did not wear shorts.

But, I may very well be wrong.

that seems like it may be the case, i was allways horrified when id see corbett and jeffries wearing thongs
