Australia's 1st World Heavyweight Champion

[Clunk]

So Bugner won the WBF world heavy weight as an Aust citizen thus the Aussie Joe tag.
Didnt they start making up titles like IBF, IBO and WBO couldnt keep up with them
at on stage. Used to love going to the pub when a heavy weight title fight was on TV.
Was in Darwin at the Vic hotel watching a Fennech fight in 1988, too much drink LOL
There was a guy in a wheel chair trying to pick a fight, bloody funny I must amit

WBF isnt well known, so not thought highly of

[threedogs]

I think after Don King had a monopoly on Boxing ppl were making their own associations/orders
and making their own champions
Used to love watching Naseem Hammad very unusual style eh
Met a few boxers over the years Lionel Rose trained around the corner
Barry Michaels, Graeme Brooks, Lester Ellis to name few

Id say Browne was not supposed to win and everything would be ok ??
Now he has won and thrown the sport in turmoil, maybe the drug results
are tainted ,,Who knows with heavy weight boxing these days

Bummer... maybe he was out on the town with a headache and got an 'aspirin' off Sharapova
