The secret is out in Dudley
Oct 6th 2004 by
Faggots and peas, Dudley Zoo, The Black Country museum, more pubs then you can shake a stick at…The Black Country has long held many hidden gems that have for the most part have remained obscured from the rest of the country’s vision.

In recent weeks, it appears as though two of Britain's foremost super-middleweights - Joe Calzaghe and Robin Reid, have given way to a new talent emerging on these shores... Carl 'The Cobra' Froch.

The aptly named Froch recently claimed victim number fourteen - who found himself on the canvas inside a round, after shipping a venemous Froch blow. This trio of world-class Brit boxers may well be number one, two and three in the world at 168 lbs...A triple threat, right enough.

Oct 4th 2004 by
Ricky Hatton’s latest outing at the MEN arena in Manchester was of greater significance then his most recent battles, as this bore the tag of being a Final Eliminator for the IBF Championship of the World.

Detroit, Michigan, September 4th, 1982. Kirkland Laing entered a crowded arena huge underdog for his bout with the feared Roberto Duran.
