Following on from yesterday's discussion of Harry Kendall not being an ideal opponent for the squat Wild Man of Borneo, I see from one of Ron's cuttings a very early outing for this bout.
Note this is a Dale Martin bill and the earliest sighting (for me) of The Wild Man of Borneo.
Looks like he didn't cut the mustard and Dale Martin "let him go" for eight years until he landed back in their stable. And then they soon got rid of him again.
Any thoughts?
And was Kiwi Kingston any more a Kiwi than Alan Garfield was a Sydneysider?
I do agree with you in terms of the Wild Man's standing.
I merely meant that Peter Preston was the right sized opponent for him.
