This picture of four world champions together shows from left to right John Conteh, Nigel 'The dark destroyer' Benn, Bill 'KO' Judd and Ronnie Green. The picture was taken in the 1980's. Bill And Nigel were close friends having being brought up in Ilford, Essex. Nigel has of course fought both Kickboxing and Thai boxing bouts. They never got to fight each other because of the weight difference. Bill did however fight the four times world champion Ronnie Green in Manchester in the 70`s. |

I started Thai Boxing in circa 1979/1980 a couple of miles outside Manchester under the tuition of Master Woody (Chinawut Sirisompan). This was more by accident and out of curiosity rather than a need to indulge in what was still a relatively unknown sport. |
