Mark:
Here is the Nestor Tobias file that I have. Unfortunately, the memo file has been wiped out so I can't give you that (or a photo). Thanks again for all of the files you are creating! Many are in use in my universe. Christopher |

************************************************** **
All the photos in this thread prior to this post have been re-filed in the photos sub forum. If you have a new photo, please be sure to post it in the proper folder (by decade of debut) in the photo sub forum. This way, future and current board members will be able to more easily locate the photo that you made an effort to find and re-size. If you wish to make a post in this thread about the fighter in question, you may link to the photo in the other forum quite easily. Feel free to send me a PM if you are unsure how to do this. Thank you! ************************************************** ** |

I appreciate the kind words. I started out just filling in because there are so few Africans represented in the game, but became fascinated with African boxing's not-very-well documented history and it just kind of grew from there to the list we've got going here today. I welcome any help in terms of information, pictures, suggestions of reference sources, names of fighters I've missed or anything else you can provide. Ironically, I recently got a similar kind note by e-mail from the son of Dennis Adjei, who is in England, expressing similar sentiments. Small world!

Good catch, Hamed
Same problem as the other one you caught. Should be 4/4. I fixed and reloaded the file. Thanks.

Sorry, Sirius ...

Haven't done much with the African universe the last month or so because of the 80s LW ratings I've been doing. I figure another two-three weeks and I'll be playing again, instead of rating and pic hunting.
