COMING THROUGH: Sammy Lee [right] one of the talents continuing to emerge from Wales
I’M STILL very proud of what I achieved myself as an amateur boxer under Gareth Bevan at the Penyrheol ABC. I won my first Welsh title at 11 years old then won every year bar one before turning pro at 18. I also won three British schoolboys. In the seniors I added two British ABA titles and went to the 1976 Montreal Olympic Games.
I had well over a hundred bouts. We need to get kids back to serving that type of apprenticeship.
