Having read so much about Cowboy Jack Cassidy on here, I am fascinated to catch my first glimpse of him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVNKtxo5iEc starting at 24:10.
His opponent is Mr X the Viking, unknown to the commentator so can we presume someone Jack brought with him? If so, should we be recognising him?
I hope pasting in the link helps ....
Hi Paul
Jack's bout begins at 24 minutes, after Guy Robin, right at the end of the link. It's him all right!
It is unfortunate that this is titled Robin/Taylor.At the time it was posted there was general excitement at an Eric Taylor match on You Tube and the last two minutes of the clip were missed
hmm is it me too many kicks to the Swede,but the link is to guy Robin,incidentally the Spanish pic of Jack is it really collyhurst Jack,Jack Cassidy cowboy did belgian and France at the time billed from Oregon,only footage I'm aware off is Youtube and quick glimpse of Jack promoting and his mate strieger in the cut off denim who even at that age could produce heat ,Bradford labour club nr the old pit was full of tattooed seventeen Stoners ready to kick off at least excuse and the men were nearly as bad.reminds me off story i was told by pencecoff he was almost concussed the bijou in old Trafford a piece of the ceiling fell in him mind bout and the locals pronounced the name of this file pit the by Joe not the bee jew French
Thanks Anglo.
As Ron has just said, very young Jack. Can't help with the opponent sorry.
That's a very young Jack and no sign of his guns to go with that hat. No idea on the opponent. can anyone help.
