Guys, another request from myself in Australia...

Former IBF Jnr Lightweight champ, Barry Michael would like to get in touch with Colin Jones. I just left his home an hour ago and suggested I may be able to help him out with contact. Barry and Colin, as well as Johnny Owens sparred quite a lot whilst Barry was in the UK. Having recently read the book on Johnny Owens, he'd like to get in contact with Colin.

Anyone with contact info, please PM me and let me know of an address, email of phone number to offer Barry Michael.

Cheers.

Your best bet is to get in contact with fellow forumite Flint Island who actually lives close to Jones

Guys, Im actually being quite sincere reagrding the request of any connection with Colin.

When a couple of fighters have the chance to chat again, they often turn to water, as you all will understand. The respects they have for one another is far beyond the normal freindships average people have.

Any genuine help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

I think Jones is the Assistant National Coach so maybe if you contact the Welsh A.B.A. they could pass on any contact details

Terry D on here did a couple of (excellent) interviews with Jones recently, it maybe worth dropping him a PM.......

Offended? No? A PITA? yes....;)

In the Lounge is one thing when it starts fucking threads up on the boxing boards its another. AFAIK neither me or Claypole complained (I know I didn't and I don't think he did) but Flint was just taking that as a sign that he could push his luck even further and after 2 weeks of it I was glad to see the back of him for a while.

Its the second time he's been banned for this type of thing (and both times with me FFS) so yes, it does get to be a PITA rather just "endearingly wacky" after a while.

I can see it was getting excessive.Give him credit though,he managed to make a thread called 'Just who is GazOC' span 8 pages or so.

Wha does AFAIK stand for??:huh

Flint just called me now and I told him about this thread, he says when he logs on he gets the message "Banned until July 5th. Reason: Bullying Claypole".
