Didn't Les McAteer a British Middleweight Champion run
164 Dock Hotel 4 Freeman Street
Sat for maths lessons next to me at Hamilton Secondary

When I was 11 used to go to Campbells gym just behind the Queens picture house by the Ritz carpark
After going in the ring with him and Peter McCann another well known boxer I quit going there
