Getting to know...Jeff Fenech
Added 2024-05-31 19:42:18 +0000 UTCA new podcast series exclusive to Patreon, 'Getting to know...' is a way for me to informally talk about fighters I think are interesting!
The first fighter profiled is Jeff Fenech, legendary lower-weight boxer and one of the all-time great action fighters and swarmers! I think you'll love him.
If you only watch one fight make it Jeff Fenech versus Samart Payakaroon which you can see here but I highly highly recommend Fenech's absolutely INCREDIBLE fight with Marcos Villasana (which just so happens to be on the Combat Chronicles YouTube channel!)
And you'll have to cap it off with Fenech's first fight against the most highly-regarded boxer he ever faced Azumah Nelson, widely considered an awful decision.
I've also attached some clippings that will hopefully provide some additional context to Fenech's career! Enjoy

Great shout that. I had an idea about another lightweight from the same era that was held up as one of the very best around (Sato was actually no.1 P4P with one publication) but wouldn’t necessarily be thought of as such nowadays!
