Within the theme (sort of) of this topic can I just say that Julia Burley loves the fact that her late husband is in the game. I spoke to her the other day and she asked me about it as her granson's friend had a copy and was running a career with Charley (who was kicking ass!!).
She thinks it is cool that he is so highly regarded and that someone bothered to put him in such a product. I found her reaction quite strange considering how good he was. Why wouldn't he be in?

In case anyone does not know who Boxscribe is. He is the author of the book *Charley Burley And The Black Murderers Row* Burley was arguably the greatest boxer never win a world title and the most feared fighter of his generation. To quote from All Time Great Archie Moore "In my prime Burley gave me a boxing lesson" I myself have always considered Burley one of the greats of our beloved fight game and was one of the first to buy Harry's book.
Thank you again Harry for taking the time to write that book. It was clearly wrote as a labour of love for a once great fighter who sadly it seems is often forgotten or at least not well known to the average casual modern boxing fan.
On a last note Harry please give my best regards to Julia and please tell her old fight fans like myself will never forget her husband and what a great fighter and more important what a great man he was.
Great to see you here Harry.
