Spencer Works Boxing Club
A Memory of Llanmartin.
Mr Charlie Booth who also lived at Underwood Estate was my trainer/coach when I was selected to represent Wales versus Holland in the Amateur Boxing International tournament with Holland on February 12th 1970, which was televised on BBC 'Sportnight with Coleman'. I lost on points to Jimmy Vestappen the Dutch Lightheavyweight Champion.
I fought Maldwyn Isaacs the Welsh International heavywight at the Underwood Social Club, the club was packed and Charlie and I had some terrific nights in those days, he was a great friend.
