Boxing greats

Jack Dempsey 
To Joe Johnson,
And the 49 wins from Rock Marciano
The king of the palace ring 
Ready for us to go…ding a ling ling.

There was Cassius Clay respectfully rested as Muhammed Ali
And there were Joe Frazier which three fights fought an amazing spat,
They fought each other ferociously to the end
Drove us crazy, making us go round the bend. 

There others I could discuss 
Larry Holness, Greg Page and Bone ‘crusher’ Smith,
And there was Iron Mike Tyson who destroyed for four years from 1986 to 1990
His legacy was magnificent and shone on us so brightly.

There were the klitschko brother who then decided to reign,
Then came Fury who wanted part of their parade.

The victory came from God
Our saviour and our king,
These men feared God, the one who brought them in.

So as the fight continues as this title passes from one generation to the next
AJ and Osuk have a choice to make, yet it’s Tyson’s who shall not forget.

“Long live boxing”

Fighting a cold

Fighting a cold The devil has never had a hold, You take something for it and pray Lay your head restfully on the comfy hay. Tired and wiped...
