Two quick ones ...
... this afternoon: Jack Hare and Zukile Khandisa, each with a pic.
Hare is actually an Englishman, but won the South African bantamweight title back in the early 1900s. Drew with Jack McAuliffe and went 1-2 against Griff Jones. He fought out of England, South Africa and Canada, and fought in New Zealand, India and the United States as well.

Hey vista, I think you created Waruinge Nakayama @ JFW. If so, just checking if his control factor should be 0/0?
Thanks! |
