It was 12th October 1982 at the Royal Albert Hall in London. The crowd are on their feet clapping in appreciation to an incredible fight they had just witnessed. It was voted Britain's 'Fight of the Year' for 1982 and would later be voted as the fifth greatest fight ever fought in a British boxing ring. The fight was George Feeney against Ray Cattouse for the British Lightweight title.
George Feeney came into the game hungry, and every fight was earned the hard way.
Long morning runs before sunrise, bruised knuckles and broken bones and opponents nobody else wanted to fight.
A man of iron who slugged it out with the best in the world and never took a backward step.
He was the last of the hungry fighters and these are his boxing memoirs.
Foreword by Hall of Fame inductee and former World Lightweight Champion,
Ray 'Boom Boom' Mancini.
George Feeney was one of my toughest fights.
Cornelius Boza-Edwards, former world Super-Featherweight Champion.
Our fight came to an end after four rounds. At the hospital I was diagnosed with a blowout fracture of the right eye socket. George was a pro's pro and the best I ever fought.
Eddie Copeland, former ABA Light-Welterweight Champion.
When he put his mind to it, George could beat anyone he wanted to.
Billy Hardy, Former British, Commonwealth & European Featherweight Champion.
