Young Victor's near loss of son Paul - This usually happens to
other people and we just can't imagine it happening to us.

Koori Radio Interview:
Personal comment: 28th. April 2008.
I was invited for an interview on Koori radio station
to comment of the Bob Rose Cup night at Malvern last
Thursday, myself and some of the old boxers on our time.
Well as I am inexperienced at these things I tried to
mend things in the Aussie Boxing Forum I frequent and it went like
this:
I called the thread: "What a mouth"
Oh my God!!
I listened to what Lynette recorded from this and I
couldn't believe how long I rattled on for, something like
18 minutes.
I also noticed that I was on a train without stops, poor
announcer Brad must have got an easy night as he didn't
have time to talk.
I am sure it didn't quite go the way the announcer Brad
intended but my inexperience must'have been to blame.
I hope I don't get used to it and grab Howard Lee's
microphone at the next fight meeting and perform.
Anyway all in all, its inexperience I suppose.

Hi Victor,
You were fantastic on our show on Monday and myself Brad
and Claude are big fans.
Remember a guest can never talk too much particularly with
the amount of stories and memories you have.
We will definitely do round 2 later in the year.
Keep well.

Reserve.

Bryan Membrey presenting the Reg Undy Best Ringside Personality
Award 2007 to YV. A very touching
expression on Bryan.
THE HANK STANLEY VICTORIAN BOXING
AWARDS 2007 was resurrected by Keith Ellis with the help of
Damian Membrey to keep alive a very old tradition as Hank
has been ill of late.
YV thanks the Victorian Boxing
Trainers League and appreciates the nice gesture by all
that form the committee.
Naming someone a Champion is no insult especially when
done as a gesture, I suppose!
Ray
Wheatley
by Young Victor:
In the recent World of Boxing
journal this blocked photo appeared and has possibly
turned up a few noses going by some of the feelings I am
getting from some forum armchair comment makers.
I have felt I needed to comment on
it on my own website to get the records straight.
This was done by my very nice and
respected friend Ray Wheatley (editor of World of Boxing
Journal) whom I recognize as one of the most knowledgeable men in
Australian Boxing.
Ray has done this as a gift in
return for my advertising his paper on my website for some
years now of my own accord.
When Ray asked me what I wanted on
it I decided to leave it up to him to put something that
would advertise my YoungVictorBoxing website.
He did this and good or bad I like
it, I am prepared to back up anything Ray says and also
prove him right.
You can see Ray's advert for his
journal just here to the left, click on his link and make
sure you place an order for his paper which comes out once
a month and is full of AUSSIE BOXING he even takes orders
by email on line right from here on Young Victor Boxing
and sent anywhere.
Thanks Ray with your 50 years in
boxing and responsibilities, in my eyes you are the
champion.

of YV's old press clippings.

As seen in World of
Boxing magazine Oct 2006
I
do thank the World of Boxing for placing this photo in their magazine as I
was very much in love with the great Aussie champion George Bracken during our time,
Barry, a one time world champion is now a very good friend of mine, also a
very nice guy, same goes for Brian Young. |
